Why Sightings of Albatwitch Are Rare?

Albatwitch (Pan chlca sp. nov.) habitate in remote, riparian wetlands that humans instinctively avoid because of leg-trapping mud that masks underlying deep water, venomous snakes and spiders, swarming insects, foot tangling vines, tree deadfalls and other obstacles that make human ambulation dangerous. The founder is a backwoods hunter of Eastern Coyotes (Canis latrans × Canis lupus lycaon) , and Eastern Coyotes often hunt on the shores of waterways while sheltering away from humans in wetlands; therefore, the founder goes where Eastern Coyotes prey. Reported sightings of Albatwitch are rare because very few humans traverse through remote, riparian wetlands where Albatwitch habitate. Additionally, the human response to first or even second sighting of an Albatwitch is to attribute the sighting to pareidolia, i.e., light playing tricks on the eyes, rather than attributing sighting to a strange animal unfamiliar to most humans . For most humans in Northeastern USA, self-denial of the actuality of sighting a strange, ape-like creature is much more emotionally comforting than accepting the reality of an encounter with an unknown beast-in-the-woods.

Addendum, September 11, 2020:

To date, no Albatwitch bones were found by anthropologists because none searched in their dangerous, riparian wetlands habitat. Also, such a search is complicated by the rapid settling, decay & compacting of any surface objects during the continual wetlands subsidence process.

  1. Heya this is somewhat of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
