True or False?
Many people believe that the Sasquatch inhabits the forests of Washington state, and there are current local laws to prohibit hunting or killing them.
Yes! Local ordinances still exist in Washington State that prohibit the hunting of Sasquatch. Skamania County passed Ordinance No. 69-01 in 1969—later amended in 1984—declaring the creature an endangered species and making it illegal to harm or kill them, carrying penalties of fines and potential jail time
(Whatcom County also established a similar "Sasquatch protection and refuge area" in 1991.)
These are local not federal laws.
