Momo the Monster, also known as the Missouri Monster (Momo).

Strange and other-worldly creatures have been spotted all over the United States... but were these sightings real? Or the imagination run wild?

In 1972, residents of Louisiana, Missouri claimed to have seen a creature they described as being 7 ft, having a large pumpkin shaped head, thick black fur covering most of its body that emitted a putrid odor, and the only facial feature noticeable were its large glowing orange eyes. At one point, a 20-person posse got together to hunt down the monster, but never found it. Later on, though, tracks were discovered and submitted to Lawrence Curtis, director of the Oklahoma City Zoo who deemed the tracks to be that of an unknown primate species.

So what could it have been? A monster or an ape?
