Question From The Comments: Is one body enough? Or do we need two bodies?

This question is from the comments section. Ray, a new reader spoke with a friend who's a curator at the New York Museum of Natural History about Dr. Melba Ketchum's Bigfoot DNA study. He wanted to know if it's possible for DNA to prove that Bigfoots exist. According to his friend the curator, more than just a body a needed-- you need at least two. If someone drags in a Bigfoot body, it still won't be enough he says. The scientific community will not accept it and will label it as a "freak of nature, a mistake, an abnormality".

Hello to All. I apologize if my questions come off annoying or if they have already been answered but I’m a little late to the party and I’m trying to play catch up.

I read about Dr Melbas involvement with the Bigfoot creature and her attempt to verify the species through DNA.

My questions are these.

1.Can DNA results be tampered with?

2.Is it possible to show results that claim these creatures exist, even if they don’t?

3.What does positive DNA bring to the table? Will the world of science really take notice?

4.After all is said and done and the results are in, could it sill be recognized and categorized as a living breathing species without access to a cadaver?

5.Will academics be sold on DNA alone?

What is the more cucial when trying to convince science of the species exsistence... A positive DNA sequence or a cadaver/carcass?

I spoke to an old friend I haven’t seen in years. I would have brought this entire Melba situation up if I had known about it at the time. He is a curator at the New York Museum of Natural History. Unfortunately the BF topic doesn’t interest him. However he did say something that I found very interesting, it was something I never heard before. Remember its just an opinion.

He said that this {not word for word but just the gist of it}:

The Bigfoot craze became huge after that film came out. {referring to Patterson} Till this day, nobody has been able to drag one of these things into the autopsy room. Its possible, but highly unlikely that these things avoided detection and capture for so long. Especially on American soil. If you watch the researchers and believers.. most feel that all we need is a body to get closure on this topic. All we need is one body to rock the world, change the evolution model and rewrite the textbooks. Many feel that the body will end all skepticism!

Unfortunately that’s not how its going to go down. Lets say that someone hits one of these things with a car. No big brother cover-up, no disinformation nonsense, no carting off the body to an Air Force hanger. Just straight up road kill by way of an accident. Involvement from local police, the coroners office as well as a bunch of local veterinarians who have to get out of their bed at 2AM in the morning. Most likely, Hazmat and Disease control would be invited to the party as well.

So after all is done, no matter what the photos, videos, autopsy reports and DNA results tell us…science will automatically classify the subject as an isolated existence until proven otherwise. It will not be recognized as an actual spices until proof of a populace is brought forth. For all anyone knows, what they have in front of them is nothing more then a freak of nature, a mistake, an abnormality. In order for the subject to get any type of actual recognition and attention, one would need to bring the second subject in. Doing this would bring undeniable proof of a succession. That’s how its done. The first one will only stir an interest,the second one is the selling point.

In other words its back to the drawing board. Discouraging isn’t it?

Your answers to the DNA questions would be much appreciated. Thank You Ray
