Quebra-cabeça The Honey Island Swamp Monster

The Honey Island Swamp Monster is a cryptid of Louisiana folklore said to haunt the swamps in St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana. It bears a striking resemblance to the typical description of a sasquatch, a large hairy humanoid, except that it has gray rather than brown fur. It is also described as having yellow eyes and a terrible odor. Rumor has it that it may be the descendant of chimpanzees that got loose during a train crash in the area. Today it is said to reside in the area of the Pearl River. It also goes by the names Cajun Sasquatch, the Louisiana Wookiee, and The Thing. It is sometimes confused with the Rougarou, which is a werewolf like cryptid said to inhabit some of the same regions.
