Skookums were bad spirits or devils of which crows, eagles, owls, blue jays, various beasts and reptiles could be representations. They could inhabit people and cause serious illness
Probably just another type of Bigfoot then.

It's giving some major Oozaru vibes, just needs a tail!
True, it's still good looking too. Not going to deny. Blood on the fangs is ok.

Towering and monstrous, draped in thick, matted black hair. Sharp, bloodstained teeth jut from its jaws, perfectly shaped for tearing prey head first, as if to erase its identity.
It's arms are long and powerful, ending in huge claws that can rip through bone with ease. It is a savage and predatory creature, known to hunt both animals and humans. It's presence is marked by a stench like rotting meat, clinging to the trees long after it's gone.The Skookum is not of this world, but a spirit in flesh. Feared by the Chinook, the Salish, the Nootka and many others, it is spoken of only in whispers, for those who mock the ancient tales often vanish - without struggle, without sound.The forest falls quiet when it draws near.
