Willie Handover, a farmer from Idaho, driving home in his pickup truck, hit a large animal on the road. Considering him to be a bear, he took the carcass home (why waste the good!), butchered it and filled his refrigerator with meat. Although the bear seemed strange to Willy in appearance, he did not fool himself, and the whole farming family ate too much "bear meat" for a couple of weeks, complaining only about some harshness of the meat.

The skin was taken by Handover to a tannery, and that's where they told him that it could not possibly belong to a bear... the owner of the workshop insisted on transferring the skin to a local university. Scientists, having examined her, said that such an animal is unknown to science.

"The skin could well belong to a snowman!" the experts said…

Famous creatures

There are a huge number of different living organisms on our planet. According to recent estimates, the number of species of organisms on our planet is approximately 7-10 million. However, only 15% of the data are described today.

According to the calculations of Canadians, 2.2 million species live in the world's oceans, 6.5 million on land. There are only about 7.8 million species of animals on the planet, 611 thousand fungi, and 300 thousand plants.

Deliberate falsification

This version includes any falsifications that imitate unexplained phenomena both from the outside: practical jokes, flash mobs, fake news, witness fraud, staging, etc.

There are many ways to make something similar to a ghost or a flying saucer from improvised materials, without using video and photomontage.

Many homemade things made for the sake of a joke, a practical joke or a direct imitation of a mystical being or event can be taken as unexplained not only in photos and videos, but also in reality.
