Bigfoot DNA study is finished

Bingo!! They are us ,or should I say WERE us. The Biblical 'God' did not create the Human upon the earth, merely, manipulated our genetic pattern creating the 'homo-sapiens' species we are today. Our evolutionary cycle has been hijacked and sped up by at least 100,000 yrs. or more ,WE, shouldn't be here yet. WE are the 'hybrids'!

This doesn't sound right. How could Bigfoot be a hybrid? What were humans mating with that resulted in Bigfoot? In order for a hybrid to exist the species have to have some DNA in common. Plus, why does Bigfoot resemble Gigantic Pythias, a species that lived about 400,000 years earlier?

On the other hand, the most Bigfoot sightings are in the Caucaus mountians, which fits with the eastern Europe/Middle East results.

From the North American Bigfoot Search Website. Looks like Bigfoot might be some type of Human Hybrid. Kind of surprises me. I was pretty certain it would be an unknown primate with no real human connection.

The DNA Project/Update

It’s been many months that myself and members of our team have silently watched the progress of our Bigfoot DNA Project under the guidance of Dr. Melba Ketchum. Silence in this research arena tends to push outsiders to make rash and irresponsible comments. In the technology world, silence about projects is routine, expected and is part of the landscape. In the bigfoot world, people in the past have been boisterous with wild claims, accusations and irresponsible behavior the norm. Our group (North America Bigfoot Search) has been trying to live by a different standard, a professional standard that the rest of the world understands and appreciates.

In the last twelve months you have seen a variety of groups suddenly take interest in bigfoot DNA. Where was that interest four years ago when we started our DNA Project? Dr. Jeff Meldrum has gone to Europe with his interest and utilized the resources of Oxford University in an attempt to develop a DNA sequence on Bigfoot. A weekly show about bigfoot also has just recently found an interest in bigfoot DNA and is trying to exploit this avenue, and there are others. There is not one group that has developed the scientific team and the high number of quality specimens to even come close to what North America Bigfoot Search and Dr. Ketchum’s team of esteemed scientists have accomplished.

The public perception of bigfoot, sasquatch and wild men is about to change forever. It has always been our belief that there would come a time when researchers would no longer be calling them animals, apes and human type gorillas, those statements will be reserved for re-runs of your favorite screamers and tree bangers. Yes, you are reading this correctly, times are about to change. I have consistently stated that we are close to a release date. We are very, very close.

Dr. Ketchum and her team of scientists and laboratories have been able to sequence three complete genomes, getting identical results independently verified by different labs. This is not a casual everyday finding, this will cause the scientific community to stand up and take notice. Many people have claimed to know what our results were, nearly everyone was wrong, even some high profile media people that have just recently made comments, all were wrong.

Dr. Ketchum originally found the combination to unlock bigfoot DNA and utilized top scientists in various fields to validate her results. The results were independently verified with the group silently sitting on these findings for months, as the results were validated a third and fourth time. Remember, this isn’t one total genome sequence; it’s three with dozens and dozens of other findings validating the results. The exact number of specimens, the number of mitochondrial results and the specifics of the scientific white paper will be released very, very soon. The paper is very complex and filled with amazing findings.

Before the world is enveloped in bigfoot, sasquatch mania and we lose sight of the real hero’s of this project, I need to address a few of the VERY best researchers in the world. Scott Carpenter, Richard Hucklebridge, Rob Alley and Harvey Pratt have contributed to the knowledge base of the scientists in a way never before accomplished. It was the vision and professional manner that these fine men have and the ability to overcome public ridicule and outright hostility that changed the course of the understanding of bigfoot forever. Where the majority of bigfoot researchers failed in getting specimens on multiple occasions utilizing innovative methods, these men did it.

The one person that was able to unlock the safe to understanding bigfoot DNA, Dr. Melba Ketchum. Where every other scientist gave up and claimed contamination, Dr. Ketchum continued to move forward. Where every other scientist was unable to turn the corner, Dr. Ketchum did. This lady did not understand the word “defeat,” she is a true pioneer in her field!

We need to express a sincere “Thank You” to the dozens of others who politely and professionally contributed to our project and the pool of specimens. We could not have done this without you!! Your patience and adherence to the Non-Disclosure Agreement shows your belief in the project and your stoic professionalism.

The days ahead are going to be exciting.

Happy Holidays

wrong again

they are what we would have become had we not been manipulated a half million years ago

they are the ones left behind to evolve at a natural pace.

WOW! AWESOME! There have been half a dozen sightings of bigfoot within a mile of my house in the past 4 months! COOL!

Sightings within a mile of your HOUSE ??

Does your husband do yard work, and is he unusually hairy ?

WOW! AWESOME! There have been half a dozen sightings of bigfoot within a mile of my house in the past 4 months! COOL!

Dr. Ketchum's official Press Release:

[link to networkedblogs.com]

DALLAS, Nov. 24–A team of scientists can verify that their 5-year long DNA study, currently under peer-review, confirms the existence of a novel hominin hybrid species, commonly called “Bigfoot” or “Sasquatch,” living in North America. Researchers’ extensive DNA sequencing suggests that the legendary Sasquatch is a human relative that arose approximately 15,000 years ago as a hybrid cross of modern Homo sapiens with an unknown primate species.

The study was conducted by a team of experts in genetics, forensics, imaging and pathology, led by Dr. Melba S. Ketchum of Nacogdoches, TX. In response to recent interest in the study, Dr. Ketchum can confirm that her team has sequenced 3 complete Sasquatch nuclear genomes and determined the species is a human hybrid:

“Our study has sequenced 20 whole mitochondrial genomes and utilized next generation sequencing to obtain 3 whole nuclear genomes from purported Sasquatch samples. The genome sequencing shows that Sasquatch mtDNA is identical to modern Homo sapiens, but Sasquatch nuDNA is a novel, unknown hominin related to Homo sapiens and other primate species. Our data indicate that the North American Sasquatch is a hybrid species, the result of males of an unknown hominin species crossing with female Homo sapiens.

Hominins are members of the taxonomic grouping Hominini, which includes all members of the genus Homo. Genetic testing has already ruled out Homo neanderthalis and the Denisova hominin as contributors to Sasquatch mtDNA or nuDNA. “The male progenitor that contributed the unknown sequence to this hybrid is unique as its DNA is more distantly removed from humans than other recently discovered hominins like the Denisovan individual,” explains Ketchum.

“Sasquatch nuclear DNA is incredibly novel and not at all what we had expected. While it has human nuclear DNA within its genome, there are also distinctly non-human, non-archaic hominin, and non-ape sequences. We describe it as a mosaic of human and novel non-human sequence. Further study is needed and is ongoing to better characterize and understand Sasquatch nuclear DNA.”

Ketchum is a veterinarian whose professional experience includes 27 years of research in genetics, including forensics. Early in her career she also practiced veterinary medicine, and she has previously been published as a participant in mapping the equine genome. She began testing the DNA of purported Sasquatch hair samples 5 years ago.

Ketchum calls on public officials and law enforcement to immediately recognize the Sasquatch as an indigenous people:

“Genetically, the Sasquatch are a human hybrid with unambiguously modern human maternal ancestry. Government at all levels must recognize them as an indigenous people and immediately protect their human and Constitutional rights against those who would see in their physical and cultural differences a ‘license’ to hunt, trap, or kill them.”

Full details of the study will be presented in the near future when the study manuscript publishes. End of release

This study is going to open up a can of worms and many levels. Dr. Ketchum wants to have Bigfoot protected which I CAN understand but she also wants them to be defined as an indigenous people with Constitutional Rights.

I believe Sasquatch should be protected but how can we afford Constitutional Rights and give Bigfoot an indigenous people classification when they aren't authentically Human?

When I read these press releases the first thing that came to my mind is that Bigfoot might actually be Nephilim. I know of no other DNA mixing than what's already known and reported in the Bible. What other historic characterizations do we have of DNA mixing concerning Human Beings?

Protecting Sasquatch from indiscriminate trophy/bounty hunting and harassment is a first step.

It would be amazing to learn whether they have distinct language(s), culture, and societal structure(s). From all reports, Sasquatch is elusive; aware of, and wary of humans. So learning more along these line might prove futile. (I can dream...)

Eagerly awaiting the White Paper/Journal Article. It will be interesting whether Sasquatch has 23- or 24-chromosomes; and where, if 23-chromosomes, it's spliced/mutated/etc. Also if blood types are comparable/compat with Human.

Is it a big foot or not? Too lazy to read OP's paragraphs. I'm entitled to someone telling me the answer

You are entitled to nothing. If you are too lazy to read, then remain ignorant.

They are intelligent beings with language and (reportedly) highly evolved sensory perception...


They've been around as long as we have and there's good reason that they have been kept secret and all these years.

The big question is, WHY ARE WE BEING ALLOWED TO LEARN THE TRUTH NOW?
