The Sasquatch (Anthropoarctus americanum) is a bizarre bipedal omnivorous ursid of the clade Tremarctinae , close relatives of the Spectacled bear and short-faced bears, evolved during the pleistocene around 1.4 million years ago, and adopting a convergent hominid primates hip and leg structure which allows them to support its body and walk in a bipedal way.



Its original range of distribution spread across the American continent with different relative to the European, Asian and South American regions, however from the beginning of the Holocene many populations suffered a considerable loss with the extinction of several species, leaving a small surviving population across the world, being A. americanum the last species on the continent.



Is believed that human could have been a strong pressure on their number with possible and constant confrontations by food and space, being during the time of colonization a very important point were these ursids suffered a devastating reduction by the environmental impact caused by the new wave of humans in the following centuries, eventually reaching the modern era where only hundreds of individuals were left wandering through the continent which have barely been able to be sighted and be confused by others of their relative quadrupeds.
