These are 5 legendary cryptids from the history and mythology of Alberta, Canada. This province definitely has more than just 5 cryptid legends, I just wanted to cover some now and then some more down the road in another video. Cryptids are essentially creatures/beings whose existence has not yet been proven. Some think they are biological entities, and others speculate that they may be more spiritual/ethereal in nature or perhaps interdimensional. The cryptids I cover in this video are the Wendigo, the North Saskatchewan river monster, the Southern Alberta river monster, Bigfoot/Sasquatch and the monster of Lac Ste. Anne.
These cryptids legends vary quite a bit in significance and frequency of sightings. Some have only really been seen in the distant past, and others continue to be spotted currently.
Wherever you are on the spectrum of belief/disbelief, I find it can be interesting to look at cryptid legends within Alberta because it helps highlight Indigenous and European mythology and folklore. And some cryptids seem to be seen a lot more than others, according to eyewitness accounts.
Please leave your comments below with your thoughts on the subject, and I'd be stoked to hear about any personal sightings that anyone may have had!
