The fact that there seem to be Big Foot sightings makes the statement implausible.

There ARE claims of remnant hominids, including one which was probably based originally on the Neanderthal and that would be the "basajaun" of the Spanish Basque, and the Neanderthal made his last European stand in southern Spain.
There is a very remote possibility I could be wrong on this one, but I don't see how such a thing could have persisted into recent times; you'd think there would be remains of people and farm animals lying around all over the place or so many people and animals going missing that at some point something would happen.
