…when I post stories like this.

A US TV presenter says he and his team have found a series of footprints in the Everest region of Nepal resembling descriptions of the mysterious Yeti.

The presenter [Josh Gates] and his colleagues say they are “very excited”, although they are not saying they definitely believe it is the mark of the Yeti.

An excited Mr Gates described the main footprint as anthropomorphic, meaning it had human characteristics.

He said he did not believe the prints were man-made or that they came from a known animal such as a bear.

But he also said he was not sure he believed in the Yeti, and did not know what to make of it.

Casts have been taken of the prints, and these are being sent to the States to be examined.
