abortive attemptstresses
gen. бесплодная попытка; тщетная попытка; неудавшаяся попытка (также "неудачная попытка": It is the local people whose encounters are more likely to be eyeball to eyeball, as happened in July 1974 to a Sherpa girl tending yaks near Pheriche in Nepal. While sitting near a stream, she heard a noise and turned to see a Yeti with black and red-brown hair, large eyes and prominent cheekbones. It grabbed her and carried her for a short distance, dropping her as she screamed and struggled. This Yeti's abortive attempt to kidnap a young girl is interesting, because in Canada there have been a few similar reports of people being kidnapped, and also from China, where peasants have claimed they were raped by hairy wild women. (Janet & Colin Bord, "Unexplained Mysteries of The 20th Century") ART Vancouver)
