How about you read on the mainstream BIAS?
Oh am I open-minded!
Clearly this is something that a lot of people do not want getting out, of course it doesn't make any sense to "Princeton" professors,it turns their whole world upside down.
BTW, because there from PRINCTON, there "More" qualified? No I don't think so, plenty of very intelligent people in the world that are not from Princeton.
You'll find a lot of "SMART" people in history making claims to "Know all that their is to know", and sadly for them, that's not the case.

And continuing...Geneticist John Timmer of Ars Technica has done a post-mortem on the entire Bigfoot DNA fiasco. He dissects what went wrong with her methods, her analysis, and her interpretation of the results. It all boils down to the fact that Ketchum was a “true believer” who wanted to find Bigfoot DNA so much that it distorted her perspective and she overlooked huge problems in the sampling, in the lab techniques, and in the obvious implications of the results. She was utterly convinced that the samples were not contaminated, yet in her methods section she admits to screening out hairs and other tissues that were from non-hominin mammals. Again and again, she got warning signs that the samples were contaminated, that most of the DNA was just from modern humans. It was clear that there was a mixture of a bunch of North American mammals in it that she refused to think about, but she let the software blindly crunch the DNA sequences without throwing other mammals in the mix, and so on. Especially when she got the mix of both single and double-stranded DNA, she should have known she had a lot of different mammals in the sample. As Timmer explains, she was so sure it had to be Bigfoot DNA that every contradiction or warning sign was completely ignored, and she constructed a bizarrely implausible story about Bigfeet interbreeding with humans only 13,000 years ago. It was also clear that this type of analysis was beyond the level of training and competence of a person like Ketchum. As Timmer and several others have explained, she jumped to the wrong conclusions or used the wrong methods when she encountered results that were not in her background or training. As Richard Feynman said, “The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool.”

Call me crazy, but I will trust a Princeton geneticist any day over a huckster like Ketchum. Sorry, but it turns out that people who work at Princeton, despite your hand waving and ad hominem, are very smart and tend to be pretty darned good at what they do. I know that makes you mad, but assaulting people you don't even know and speaking vaguely about how this would ruin peoples' worlds and such is ridiculous. You've got nothing here. No body, no DNA, no scat, NOTHING.

And I trust an average joe at UT then a Princeton geneticist any day.
You talk about having nothing, but lets be clear, THEY HAVE DNA, PLENTY OF SCAT, PLENTY OF EVERYTHING.
So, lets go over your reading comprehension from my previous post, what assault? hmm?
Yeah I didn't think so, your only excuse and a desperate one at that in the face of a losing battle.

Hmm, not sure what to think. Watched it a few times and actually find this super intriguing. I believe in the possibility of an unknown hominid that has avoided humanity for the most part throughout it's existence. But so much of the evidence is sketchy at best. Like the part in this video of the 'sleeping squatch', I remember seeing that here a while back and that was 'spose to be earth shattering evidence.
Now I see this new(to me) night vision footage and the &*#$% close up of the FACE!! To good to be true me thinks.
If it is true, watch out for big corporate to cash in, seeing how no one owns the rights to the 'elusive one'...
I want this to be real but not sure...

Also, please give me the names of the prominent geneticists who stated that the DNA is from an unknown hominid. Give me just one name and a link to where they publicly stated that they have confirmed that Bigfoot DNA was found. Just. One. This is utterly laughable. Please direct me to where ANYONE at ANY TIME has confirmed having wookie scat. I'll wait. And for the record, I really don't have to prove anything here, you do. You are making claims as to evidence that does not exist and ignoring highly qualified individuals who tell you that you are wrong and simply do not understand that you are being had. It is what it is. There is no Bigfoot, get over it.

Sorry, but no. There is ZERO DNA evidence. It's just that simple. People aren't rejecting it because the dreaded powers that be are hiding wookies from you, they are rejecting it because they know what they are doing and they can tell it's garbage. I know you want to think you know something someone else doesn't but that's just not the case. There is ZERO actual evidence to support the existence of bigfoot. Every single claim of DNA has been found to be fraud or error.

Come on people. This "evidence" is crap. You can almost go blind trying to pick Bigfoot faces out of the pixels in these lousy videos and photos. And you can get close-ups of a sleeping Bigfoot for 30 seconds but no longer, and you couldn't wake it up and get it to walk around so we can see the whole body? Nope. Confusing close-up or blurry long shot. Nothing in-between.
DNA evidence? Okay, fine. Let's see it. Let's get a peer review; do it right. Otherwise:
Would you chance waking a creature which when angry with humans kills them by twisting their head off like a coke bottle? Or would you be as still and quite as you can so you can make it home to your family? Careful with your answer because until you're in that situation you can't accurately answer this.
Please show us all the evidence that ANY person at ANY point in time has EVER had his or her head twisted of by a wookie. And I don't want t story from some native american of 600 years ago, I want pics or a police report or a coroner's report. Proof, please.

I KNOW BF exist because I've seen one on a military base. The F&W confirmed that they know of them and HAVE known of them.
it takes a SPECIAL type of arrogance and cynicism to suppose ALL these reports are from liars or people who don't know what a bear on two legs look like!!!
