The Yeren: Best Evidence For China’s Bigfoot

Is China's Bigfoot real? The mystery of the Yeren runs deeper than most people realize.

For centuries, people in China have reported sightings of a massive, red-haired, human-like creature known as the Yeren (野人)—literally, the "Wild Man." Said to roam the remote Shennongjia forest in Hubei province, the Yeren shares uncanny similarities with other legendary cryptids like Sasquatch and the Yeti. But unlike many regional folklore tales, the evidence for the Yeren is surprisingly extensive—and surprisingly credible.

In this video, we dig into the best evidence for China's Bigfoot, covering everything from ancient texts and historical records to modern eyewitness accounts, physical traces like footprints and hair samples, and controversial video footage, including a rare claim of a human-Yeren hybrid. Some of this material has never been widely discussed outside of China.

You’ll hear from scientists, forestry officials, and local villagers, and see how their stories and discoveries align across generations. From 40-centimeter footprints and reddish hair samples that defy classification, to expedition reports backed by the Chinese government, we lay out a comprehensive case for why the Yeren deserves serious attention.

Skeptics say it’s just folklore—or a bear. But the physical evidence and the consistency of reports say otherwise. Could the Yeren be an undiscovered species of hominid, still hiding in the mountains of Central China?

Whether you're a Bigfoot believer, a curious skeptic, or just fascinated by the unknown, this deep dive into the Yeren phenomenon might leave you questioning what else is still out there… just beyond the treeline.
