VivaFutbol 10 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/thebigblog/archives/146019.asp?source=mypi It's long been thought that the best way to prove Sasquatch exists is to shoot the darn thing and show everyone the body. That's exactly what a group of men from California and Georgia claim they're about to do. Matthew Whitton, a police officer, and his friend Rick Dyer didn't shoot a Sasquatch. But they say they found its body in the woods of northern Georgia. Together with Tom Biscardi, CEO of a California group called Searching for Bigfoot (more commonly known in the Northwest as Sasquatch), they've announced they will share photos and DNA evidence to prove the existence of the legendary man-ape in a press conference Friday. Among the "facts" detailed in the press release: # The creature is male, seven feet seven inches tall and weighs over 500 pounds # It has reddish hair and blackish-grey eyes. # Its footprint is sixteen and three-quarters inches long and five and three-quarters inches wide at the heel. Inquisitr.com has what it claims are pictures of the body. Real or fake, this is a lot more believable than that story about Sasquatch on Mars.

beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080815/us_nm/bigfoot_dc;_ylt=Asgd9Y6pPnz1VLrWcJG3f4QazJV4 PALO ALTO, California (Reuters) - Bigfoot remains as elusive as ever. ADVERTISEMENT Results from tests on genetic material from alleged remains of one of the mythical half-ape and half-human creatures, made public at a news conference on Friday held after the claimed discovery swept the Internet, failed to prove its existence. Its spread was fueled by a photograph of a hairy heap, bearing a close resemblance to a shaggy full-body gorilla costume, stuffed into a container resembling a refrigerator. One of the two samples of DNA said to prove the existence of the Bigfoot came from a human and the other was 96 percent from an opossum, according to Curt Nelson, a scientist at the University of Minnesota who performed the DNA analysis. Bigfoot creatures are said to live in the forests of the U.S. Pacific Northwest. An opossum is a marsupial about the size of a house cat. Results of the DNA tests were revealed in an e-mail from Nelson and distributed at the Palo Alto, California, news conference held by Tom Biscardi, host of a weekly online radio show about the Bigfoot. Also present were Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer, the two who say they discovered the Bigfoot corpse while hiking in the woods of northern Georgia. They also are co-owners of a company that offers Bigfoot merchandise. Despite the dubious photo and the commercial interests of the alleged discoverers, the Bigfoot claim drew interest from Australia to Europe and even The New York Times. Biscardi said the DNA samples may not have been taken correctly and may have been contaminated, and that he would proceed with an autopsy of the alleged Bigfoot remains, currently in a freezer at an undisclosed location.
