Huggable, lovable and just plain adorable, the furry Quatchi is an Olympic mascot who has quickly become the most popular cheerleader of the 2010 Winter Games. This larger-than-life creature with the shy, sweet disposition is a sasquatch (Bigfoot by another name), a mythological, human-like beast that resides in BC forests. While Quatchi loves photography, travel and food, you’ll likely find him playing hockey, his favourite sport.—Kristina Urquhart
