Cryptids and Monsters: Cryptid of the week

Humility is a bird from the folklore of the American lumberjacks. It was reported in Reverend Samuel Peter’s General History of Connecticut in 1781. This bird was much like an eagle but its eyes were far superior and was so swift that it always avoided every hunter’s shot.

The Fotsiaondre, meaning “white sheep” is a sheep-like humanoid from forests in Madagascar, with white woolly fur spotted with black or brown. Witnesses say it has bulging eyes, a long muzzle, floppy ears, and cloven hooves. Not much is known about it, except that it is nocturnal and presumably herbivorous.

It has been suggested that the Fotsianondre is actually a species of lemur common to Madagascar.
