Evidence of Bigfoot finally found! Well, maybe, perhaps ...

“Bigfoot” researcher Cliff Barackman informed Knoxville, Tenn.-area enthusiast Matt Seeber that the popular series had “great success” in its adventure.
“Bigfoot” crews spent about three weeks in the area. They traveled to several secluded spots and obtained permission to camp in parts of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park where most tourists are not allowed. What kind of success did they have? Did they find a Bigfoot, throw a net over it and drag it back to civilization?
“No,” Seeber, who did not accompany the group, said with a laugh. “I wish it was that successful.”
“Bigfoot” doesn’t allow spoilers.
Some episodes — but not all of them — have no more evidence than freshly fallen trees, heavy debris suddenly found or night-vision images of something in the woods late at night.
Yet the show continues to be a monster hit for Animal Planet. There are many believers.
“Their idea is to not come into an area and capture (a creature),” Seeber said. “They basically just want to show the creature does exist here.”
