Despite its name, an urban legend does not necessarily originate in an urban area. Rather, the term is used to differentiate modern legend from traditional folklore of pre-industrial times. For this reason, sociologists and folklorists prefer the term "contemporary legend".

I glued a picture of the animal and that animal’s tracks side-by-side, and one of the cards with the animal’s name below the picture. I bound the pages with chicken rings.
