Ranchita Yeti

The “Rancheti,” an 11-foot fiberglass imagining of the abominable snowman, stands sentinel above the high desert. If the butt looks familiar, there’s a reason: the statue’s curved buttocks were modeled after those of pro football player Emmitt Smith. Urban farmers, take note—the monster’s creator, artist Joe Rauh, claims the Yeti keeps the local coyotes away from his chickens.
