I think a "real" yeti was suggested at the end of The Abominable Snowmen,
 watching the TARDIS leave. But it didn't exactly "feature".

In fact, the only actual cryptid on the televised show to date, as far as I
 know, is the werewolf of Tooth and Claw. And even that is revealed to be an
 alien that inhabits host bodies.
