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 per cent 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 US Pacific Northwest. An opossum is a marsupial about the size of a house cat. Results of the DNA tests were revealed in an email 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.

August 16, 200816 yr "failed" ? I like how they don' explain at all. Was it a different animals DNA? Was there NO DNA? Was it unidentified DNA? WTF does "failed" mean when DNA testing. "Retarded writer writes retarded article." Would have been a better title.

"Retarded writer writes retarded article." Would have been a better title. LOL OK, will edit. Take it up to Sydney Morning Herald.
August 16, 200816 yr Saw this shit on the news last night, I was like oh fuck they gonna be able to cut open big foot and see what the fuck it is. But yea, this really doesn't say much.. I mean could they say what the DNA result said? What the fuck is this shit I want to find out now.
August 17, 200816 yr I got a little more info. I guess they did two tests, one came back opossum, the other one human. Could have been fucked up tests/samples. I guess we will see when those dudes bring it out the freezer and let someone go to work on the carcass.
