The Chinese version of Bigfoot is called YeRen (野人). It directly translates to Wild Man. Today at Chinese Daily you can read an article of a 62 year-old man who has been searching for the Wild Man for 30 years. This is a touching story unlike any Chinese-Yeren-Hubei Province-Shennongjia Region story we have shared with you so far. Its a little more personal.
One man has made it his life mission to track down the mysterious ‘Wildman’ that is said to be roaming the mountains of Shennongjia. Wang Xiaodong reports in Shennongjia, Hubei province.For the past three decades, Li Guohua has had just one mission in life: to find the legendary “Wildman” in the thick forests of Hubei province.He can’t recall how many times he almost lost his life to unexpected cold, falling into canyons or fighting bears. He was even mistaken by police for being an armed fugitive when trying to trace the ape-like Wildman in the mountains of Shennongjia, the scene of numerous witness reports of this elusive ape-man.The retired 62-year-old firmly believes in the existence of Wildman and plans to organize an exploration team.Read more here at:http://www.bigfootlunchclub.com/2012/08/one-mans-inspiring-story-about-chinas.html
It’s interesting to see that we are not the only country that has a Bigfoot legend. The fact that there are sightings in China so similar to ours really adds weight to the claims made by people here.
