THE YETI OF THE WILLOWBY CLUSTER (1998)
SOURCE: A Hunger in the Soul by Mike Resnick (1998)
DESCRIPTION: "...But on Snowball, it's a two-legged carnivore that was at the top of the food chain before the Snowmen got there. It's about twelve feet tall, and its agility is almost unbelievable. There were never very many of them; they're such good predators that the shortage of prey kept their numbers down..." (A Hunger in the Soul by Mike Resnick (1998)
NOTES: The genetically-altered humans known as Snowmen killed many of the yetis in a short war between the two species. Now less than two hundred individuals left the yetis are a protected species.
HISTORY: Of course I think of Leigh Brackett's snow monster from The Empire Strikes Back. Don't you?

Yum yum.
