In summary, climber Yo****eru Takahashi is returning to the Himalayas in search of the elusive yeti. During his last expedition, his camera malfunctioned, but he remains confident that he will finally prove the existence of the "abominable snowman". There is a cultural bias in the profanity detection surrounding this topic, with concerns for the protection of the yeti. Questions arise about the yeti's solitary existence and possible immortality, as well as the origin and longevity of the yeti stories. The journalist's involvement in the search for the yeti is also brought into question.

"The last time climber Yo****eru Takahashi found what he believes is the lair of the elusive yeti, high in the Himalayas, his camera developed a fault due to the altitude and extreme cold. But he is confident that this time around he will finally prove the "abominable snowman" exists."

There is obviously a cultural bias in the profanity detection.

I hope he doesn't find it. Simply for the protection of the yeti.

"the lair"..."the yeti"...

So, there's only one? Not a member of a reproducing population of yeti? It is immortal? How long have the yeti stories been around?
