Bhutanese Yeti tradition in the National Library and cultural-history record

Record summary

Bhutanese accounts of the Migoi or Migo describe a wild, human-like being associated with remote forests and highland landscapes. Contemporary Bhutanese cultural writing, tourism material, and documentary coverage preserve named locations and local testimony, while scholars debate how much the modern cryptid image reflects older Buddhist, Himalayan, and international Yeti narratives. This is a comparison lead for studying translation, national identity, and tourism rather than a single encounter. Researchers should identify the particular informants and publication context because “Bhutanese Yeti” is often presented as a uniform tradition when accounts vary substantially.
