Discovered at the army’s Makalu Base Camp in Makalu-Barun National Park, the footprints reportedly measured 32×15 inches and were set deep in to the snow over a sizable distance.

Several photographs of the prints have since been uploaded on to the Indian army’s Twitter feed.

“For the first time, an #IndianArmy Moutaineering Expedition Team has sited Mysterious Footprints of mythical beast ‘Yeti’ measuring 32×15 inches close to Makalu Base Camp on 09 April 2019,” the post reads. “This elusive snowman has only been sighted at Makalu-Barun National Park in the past.”

The Yeti – or ‘Abominable Snowman’ – is one of the world’s most enduring cryptozoological mysteries.

Often described as a tall, bipedal, ape-like creature similar to North America’s Bigfoot, the Yeti is said to roam the forests and mountains of the Himalayas and is a major part of the culture and spiritual beliefs of remote communities in Nepal and Tibet.

Whether these particular footprints are the genuine article however remains unclear.
