Given that no corpse or body of a "bigfoot" has ever been found, it would SEEM unlikely. If you study biology enough, you would learn that for a species to be successful in breeding, there has to be a certain population density. If that population density existed, we would have proved or disproved their existence long ago.
Given that the infamous Patterson film of 1967 has pretty well discredited (two people that assisted in the film have come forward and told their story, and analysis of the film does not show an "un-duplicated" gate that no human can have.) coupled with the fact that all the hair and dropping that have been attributed to "Bigfoot" that have been analyzed for DNA show DNA of other known critters.
You have to look at the motives of people who promote bigfoot. They either write books, or become famous for having seen a "real Bigfoot creature." Its amazing that no one has managed to shoot one, or find one dead, that should say something.
Science cannot prove they do NOT exist, but it can be shown to be very unlikely. I believe that is the case.

Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch, is a figure in North American folklore alleged to inhabit remote forests, mainly in the Pacific northwest region of the United States and the Canadian province of British Columbia. In northern Wisconsin, Lakota Indians know the creature by the name Chiye-tanka, a Lakota name for "Big Elder Brother". Bigfoot is sometimes described as a large, hairy bipedal hominoid, and many believe that this animal, or its close relatives, may be found around the world under different regional names, such as the Yeti of Tibet and Nepal, the Yeren of mainland China, and the Yowie of Australia.
Bigfoot is one of the more famous examples of cryptozoology, a subject that the scientific community classifies as pseudoscience because of unreliable eyewitness accounts, lack of scientific and physical evidence, and over-reliance on confirmation rather than refutation. Scientific experts on the matter consider the Bigfoot legend to be a combination of folklore and hoaxes.

Bigfoot is a creature of God, and should be treated as such, as we all are. He is afraid of us as we are of him. We are all afraid of what we don't know of.
We must learn to love each other, to live to gether and to concern ourselves with each other so that we may learn to life like God.

I doubt it.... but there's a better chance of Bigfoot than God.

As a scientist that has studied this for years, my inescapable conclusion is that yes it is a real group of creatures.
