Alaskan Man's Encounter with the Mythical Nantina on Kenai Peninsula

A recent video posted on YouTube by the channel Dixie Cryptid has caught the attention of Bigfoot enthusiasts and researchers. The video, titled "Bigfoot Devastates Alaskan Village," shares stories of a supposed Cryptid known as the "nantina" that is believed to have played a significant role in the abandonment of fishing villages in Alaska, including Portlock and Nanwalik. According to the video, the nantina is a creature with evil powers and huge claws, a legend that dates back to the 1700s. The native people of the area believe that it killed many people, causing the villages to be abandoned. The last reported sighting of the nantina was in 2021, during a TV show. The video also shares a personal account from a man named Benny, who claims to have had a close encounter with the nantina in early May when he was 17. Benny and his cousin were out looking for black bears to hunt, as their freezers were running low on meat. They came across a large black figure on a nearby mountain, which Benny initially thought was a bear. However, after taking a shot and missing, he realized that the creature was much larger and more powerful than a bear. As Benny and his cousin approached the creature, they heard footsteps and branches snapping all around them. They soon realized that they were being stalked by multiple nantinas. Benny's cousin became frightened and the two of them ran down the mountain, eventually making it back to their four-wheeler and driving away. The video has sparked a lot of discussion and debate within the Bigfoot community. Some believe that the nantina is a real creature, while others are skeptical. Regardless of one's beliefs, the video is certainly intriguing and worth a watch. I am always excited to come across new and interesting stories about Cryptids. The video by Dixie Cryptid is certainly one of them. It's always fascinating to hear personal accounts of encounters with these mysterious creatures. If you're interested in learning more about the nantina and the abandoned fishing villages in Alaska, I encourage you to watch the video and do your own research. Who knows, you may uncover some new information or evidence that supports the existence of the nantina. In the meantime, let's keep an open mind and continue to explore the world of Cryptids. You never know what you might find. *Note: The video states that the woman who edits the videos is named Carol Sutton, but the video itself refers to her as "Carol." For the purpose of this article, I have used "Carol" to refer to her.
