The Bigfoot hunters starring on Animal Planet's hit reality series "Finding Bigfoot" are currently on the hunt for the elusive beast in Savannah, Georgia.

On the popular program, which is now in its seventh season, four researchers travel to different locations in the United States and interview people who claim to have seen Bigfoot. Then the researchers set up re-enactments of the sighting to try to prove the existence of the mysterious creature. The team consists of Bigfoot Field Research Organization (BFRO) President Matt Moneymaker, researchers James "Bobo" Fay and Cliff Barackman, and scientist Ranae Holland, who is a skeptic.

Before the producers of "Finding Bigfoot" went off to explore the woods in Savanah, they held a town hall meeting last week, where fans of the show and believers shared personal sighting stories of Sasquatch, the Savannah Morning News reports.

Although this marks the first time that the crew has filmed in coastal Georgia, Fay revealed that this is not his first trip to Savannah.

"I came here like 15-something years ago. I remember it was beautiful with the buildings and the trees and the parks," he said.

He also opened about the popularity of the show.

"I personally think it's because people love Bigfoot. Bigfoot was such a big part of the culture already, so I'm not surprised. Anything with Bigfoot, people are going to watch."

In addition, Fay said he has been on the search for Bigfoot for about three decades, but "Finding Bigfoot" has not given any new proof to his research.

"A lot of stuff happens that you don't see."

"... It was Ranae and me in Oregon, season one, and we heard these incredible vocals that filled the whole canyon. Everyone knew what it was."

He said even Holland, who is decribed as a skeptic, thinks it was a Bigfoot.

"Her skepticism comes and goes."
