MikeZimmer Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Quite an interesting article. An award winning taxidermist from Alberta Beach, near the Canadian Rocky Mountains, has created a replica of Patty. "Alexandros of Antioch sculpted Venus de Milo, Leonardo da Vinci had Mona Lisa and, now, Ken Walker has his masterpiece, Patty the Sasquatch. Walker, who has studios in Alberta Beach, a village just west of Edmonton, is an award-winning, internationally recognized taxidermist. He’s worked on Siberian tigers, cougars, owls, and even did a panda reproduction. But five years ago, Walker took on the biggest challenge of his career after he became intrigued with the legend of Sasquatch. “Like many people, I had seen the iconic 1967 Patterson film clip of a Sasquatch. I always firmly believed it was a real creature and a real video. I wanted to build a replica of that creature but no one would give me a commission and I knew a project like that would be time-consuming and expensive,” says Walker."
