Do these creatures exist?

We have very different ontological statuses here, I think. The yeti is mythological, the moa an extinct flightless bird and the 50ft snake is simply a postulated bigger one than any found: record around 33ft, I think. Greater lengths claimed for anaconda, but not authenticated.

It's possible that the yeti could exist. I'm unsure as to what a Moa is?

a Moa is a very big bird. They were part of the "true love waits" campaign, so it only took small inreases in hunting to make them extinct.

wasn't there a claim that someone had found a moa earlier this century? i thought the maori had eaten them all after chopping down most of the trees.

The jackalope exists. You can get them from the Cabelas catalogue.

I don't see the big deal about the Yeti. As far as fabled creatures go, the stories about dinosaurs in Africa are far more intriguing.

Back when they were first establishing this beautiful country (U.S.A.) there was one man who had the vision to make things even better, his name was Indian Grey. His first man was Bibblybib Grey. An Indian with an idea for a new kind of counrty. A country that, well, it could fly. We could take off if we were having a war with the other guys.

Infact, this country would be carried by a kind of magic turtle. But wait. There are no such things as magic turtles.

But what a good idea.
