National Geographic has, in coöperation with Channel 4, searched the dense forests of Bhutan for the mythic Migyur, or Yeti as we like to refer to it. I saw this broadcasted this morning. A team of experts and guides/translators explored Bhutan and questioned its inhabitants. Several people provided eyewitnessaccounts, of which one was am official Migyur-hunter who collected prints and stools for the government. Another was a woman who has been kidnapped by the Migyur several times and being taken care of by it. The woman was, according to her townfolk, not able to take care of herself, but she always returned safely after being absent for about 10 days per kidnapping. I guess the Migyur senses innocence in these people.

The team planted cameras on several spots where footprints were found, but no sightings occurred. There was a hair found in a cedartree that was supposed to be a lair, according to the Migyur-hunter. In the lair a hair + follikel was found, which provided unknown DNA. It was tested with primate and bear DNA but there were no matches.

The Bhutanese people don't need proof of the existence of the Migyur. They know of its existence. It is there and it's not that spectacular. It's part of Bhutans culture.

But hell was I disappointed not to witness a Yeti strolling through the woods.

As a legend...

Wow, sound like a legend.

i know where i'll go when i'm older, then.

Its a dangerous trek

is'nt bhutan where they have those giant lizards?maybe it's just one of them in a gorilla suit.

You're free to be sceptic. You should've seen the show. It was fascinating.
