Pff, Big Foot... Sasquatch on the other hand...
A manananggal is described as being an older, beautiful woman, capable of severing its upper torso in order to fly into the night with huge bat-like wings to prey on unsuspecting, pregnant women in their homes; using an elongated proboscis-like tongue, it sucks the hearts of fetuses or blood of an unsuspecting, sleeping victim. The severed lower torso is left standing and it is said to be the more vulnerable of the two halves. Sprinkling salt or smearing crushed garlic or ash on top of the standing torso is fatal to the creature. The upper torso then would not be able to rejoin and will die at daybreak.
Aswangs are shapeshifters. Stories recount aswangs living as regular townspeople. As regular townspeople, they are quiet, shy and elusive. At night, they transform into creatures from cat, pig, bird and the most common a dog. They enjoy eating unborn fetuses and small children, favoring livers and hearts. Some have long proboscises, which they use to suck the children out of their mothers' wombs or their homes. Some are so thin that they can hide themselves behind a bamboo post. They are fast and silent. Some also make noises, like the Tik-Tik(the name was derived from the sound it produces) which are louder the further away the aswang is, to confuse its potential victim and the Bubuu, an aggressive kind of aswang that makes a sound of a laying hen on midnight. They may also replace their live victims or stolen cadavers with facsimiles made from tree trunks or other plant materials. This facsimile will return to the victim's home, only to become sick and die. An aswang will also have bloodshot eyes, the result of staying up all night searching for houses where wakes are held to steal the bodies.
No one has ever proven that an Aswang or a Manananggal doesn't exist, so it is as likely that they do as a Big Foot.
Another thing to consider : we have mobilized a high tech army to try and locate a known human being located in the mountains of Afghanistan/Pakistan, yet we have not been able to track him down in the past 10 years of dedicated searching either.
So---the Taliban are being hidden by the Yeti?
Is that Chad?
I would like to believe, but... The camera has been around for what? 150+ years? In all this time, there hasn't been one clear, inconspicuous photograph of a beast that's supposed to be taller than a man? A beast that has legions of people trying to photograph it?
In regards to Bin Laden... He's one dude. Bigfoot, unless it's immortal, has to be a species that has to replicate. Furthermore, it's a beast and I find it hard to believe that it's been capable of outsmarting humans all these years.
