They never looked for evidence? Why? You will have to excuse my ignorance on the matter as I did not watch the show, just the short video clip.

The National Geographic cameraman spotted "eyes" looking out from what looked like a small cave. The cops were split up looking for the creature. One was looking at the rocky hillside from what looked like quite a distance with his scope.
He was made aware of the "eyes" in the cave and looked in it with his scope from a distance away. He too saw "something" inside.
So he then guided one of the other officers on the hillside to the location of the cave to look inside. He did and said he saw "nothing".
Immediately they were called away to a gang disturbance at a school.
They did see a tree that had almost all the bark torn off, they pointed this out like that was unusual or something.
The officer who looked into the cave personally did not investigate the debris in the cave or anything. Or make any comments about prints outside the cave. It was all over pretty quickly. Which for these shows is not surprising at all.
The officers were wandering about looking around for signs before the cave incident. But the sightings such as "eyes" and "something in the cave" seemed to warrant no explanation or further investigation. Typical.
That is the best of my recollection (though it may be clear as mud), someone else may want to argue a different scenario.
