Don't be ignorant. The Wendigo and the Yeti are not similar, they are almost-identical. Only difference is how one becomes one, yet it doesn't change the fact that in everything else, they are exactly the same thing.

And besides, it can be attributed to how myths are made for everything unknown. Maybe the Yeti/Wendigo is just some rare animal, and people that did not know and saw it as a monster, invented a myth regarding it's "creation". It wouldn't be the first.

Even being nit-picky, they are still the same:

-Live in cold places.

-Move swifly in snow.

-Eat people.

-Have white, thick fur.

-Are cryptids.

-Look like gorrillas with a face closer in appearance to a skull than a gorilla's face. Or so the myths of both say.

-Are huge.

-Are very strong.

-Are savage creatures.
