Thousands of reported sightings over hundreds of years.
There are hundreds every year around the world.
There are approximately 650 to 700 reported sightings each year world-wide.
United States followed by Mexico and Great Britian.
There have been hundreds of thousands of UFO sightings around the world since 1940. And in all that time, there have been NO verified instances of contact with extraterrestrial life forms.
So few sightings are actually reported, and no central authority keeps records of sighting, there are no reliable statistics.

The Loch Ness Monster is said to reside in Loch Ness in Scotland. Bigfoot sightings are reported in various regions of North America, including the Pacific Northwest. UFO sightings have been reported globally, with certain locations like Roswell, New Mexico, gaining notoriety. Alien sightings are reported worldwide, with no specific location ascribed to their existence.
Since not everyone chooses to tell everyone of their sightings of Bigfoot around the world, it is hard to say precisely how many sightings there have been.
Of the 600 to 650 reported sightings (world wide) annually, there is no way to measure accurately which ones are more significant than the others. Many times, only in hindsight, do some aspects take on signifcant meanings. Some sightings are seen by many, these usually over urban areas. Some are sighted several nights/days in a row, some only a single sighting is reported. Only through researching each case individually will any important factors be revealed.
Bigfoot sightings are reported almost world wide, though most sightings originate in north America. Bigfoot (and creatures closely resembling the north American version) are also known as sasquatch, yeti, skookum, hibagon (Japan), Yeren (China), Mapinquai (Brazil and Bolivia), Urayuli (Alaska) and Batutut (Vietnam, Laos and Borneo).
To tell the truth there has been sightings in almost all over the world! And yes there has been sightings there!
I have heard that there were sightings during both world wars, there could be more but those are the ones that I know about.
