the most photographed creature that has never once held still for a focused shot
means A large, hairy, ape-like creature said to roam the forests of the Pacific Northwest, also known as Bigfoot, whose existence has never been proven.
from From the Halkomelem language of the Coast Salish peoples of British Columbia, where a word like sásq'ets named a wild, hairy giant of the woods. It entered English in the 1920s when a Canadian teacher and writer anglicized the term to 'sasquatch,' lending a tidy English label to a being Indigenous traditions had spoken of long before.
