Maybe you know the TV show 'Mountain Monsters'?

In Germany currently it run on "DMAX" as "Die Monster-Jäger - Bestien auf der Spur".


At the end of every episode you can read:
'No wildlife was hunted, trapped or harmed in any way in the making of the program.'

At one episode they hunted an injured Bigfoot after some time other unknown people shot and killed him and had wrapped him in something and have moved him away.

This and that don't match. ;-)


I don't think that this TV show is real.

Because of which reason they made/make this TV show?


What do you think - is this TV show real or fake?


Thanks.

Fake.
Some of the episodes are so far fetched, it is unbelievable how they came up with that nonsense.
If it ever existed in the tabloids, then they make an episode out of it.

I've never heard of it, but I can answer the question "why did they make it?" To make money.

I've camped and hunted the lower Appalachian for over 40 years. Never have I had an experience with a Bigfoot or monster type animal, though I believe such a creature could exist. I enjoy the show, mainly due to the comradery of the team members. It's fun and no where being realistic. Seriously, how can you go out on night one and run into the alleged creature, make all that noise, build a trap for a couple of days, and on the final night, go out and again run into the creature and try to force it to a trap. Take it for what it's worth, just a fun bunch of guys playing "detective" for kicks and giggles. Now that the Rogue team has entered the show, it has taken away the fun and the hunt, caused internal strife within AIMS, and the show is on the skids. Due to this, I doubt I will watch it any more. I certainly don't see how this will increase ratings, but I wish the guys good luck. It was a fun show for a while.

Since "Bigfoot" is still a myth, how could someone have shot one? If someone had
found a real Bigfoot, the world would have heard about it.

I say fake.
