Want to find out if you are descended from Neanderthals or Denisovans?

By -

National Geographic and IBM started a groundbreaking anthropological study called the Genographic Project back in 2005 with the goal of mapping the path of human migration. Over the years, they have collected over half a million samples from regular people that wanted to participate in the study and learn about their ancestry. In the past few years though, there have been some great studies regarding the Neanderthals and Denisovans and science has continued to advance. To incorporate these changes into the Genographic Project, they have recently released the test kit Geno 2.0. According to National Geographic, for the low price of $199.95 you will:

From shop.nationalgeographic.com:

  • Discover the migration paths your ancient ancestors followed hundreds—even thousands—of years ago, with an unprecedented view of your ancestral journey.
  • Learn what percentage of your genome is affiliated with specific regions of the world.
  • Find out if you have Neanderthal or Denisovan ancestry.
  • Have the opportunity to share your story and connect with other Genographic Project participants, helping us fill in the gaps in the human story.

    I submitted a sample a few years ago and I would really recommend it. It´s interesting and fun and the database is updated all the time.

      Have had bet with husband he is high percent Neandertal since early 80's .... He is paying! Based on ADHD no cavities (rarely brushes!) extremely strong although short and toes that can grip. Lol. Any bets? I think over 4 percent. They should pay us for his DNA. Also his family from Neandertal Valley. Immigrated in late 1800's. He is definitely different than most. Super mind. Extremely smart right brain music and math. Cares not for aesthetics or fashion. Just saying

      Is there a test to find out if we descended from sasquatch or dogman?

      One more question are their weiners circumcised or unclipped?
      The reason I ask is if they are circumcised they are more modern than we think.
      Again,I'm not prying just trying to write an article on the Bigfoots weiners.
      Also are they different sizes ie length,circumference,you know,things of that nature.
      Thanks in advance.

    HRPoopnchute here - I have been fortunate enough to see a video of a Bigfoot picking another Bigfoot's nose and then eating the boogers. It was amazing and now I'm a 100% bleeber. You can't see the video though because it's a super secret video and all of the best videos are kept private because, um, well, we just don't want to show them to you.

    Gotta warn you though, not for the faint of heart. Especially when the attack begins in the beginning where the cavemen are attacked by the bigfoots.

      It's just the movie, "Quest For Fire" folks. Best part was Rae Dawn Chong nekkid. Otherwise, it's pretty boring.

Bigfoot injured by a forest fire was taken away and hidden by the authorities, not even Robert Lindsay can top this story

By -

This story was circulating the internet way back in 2004, or maybe as far back as 1999. Back when everybody was on 56k dial-up modems and a "Facebook" was just a regular book with directory listing of names and headshots. This story was so disturbing and so shocking that nobody believed it at the time. It was the Robert Lindsay " Bear Hunter: Two Bigfoots Shot and DNA Samples Taken " story of the time. And like Robert's Bear Hunter story , this witness didn't have a name. The only thing known about the witness is that this person was a government employee, anonymous of course. The author of the story was a science teacher named Thom Powell who believe it really happened and that the whole story was an elaborate cover-up. Powell said the anonymous government employee alerted the BFRO about a 7.5 feet long/tall burn victim with "multiple burns on hands, feet, legs and body; some 2nd and 3rd degree burns". Sadly, there was no DNA samples taken from

Rumors abound on whether or not Finding Bigfoot will continue, but hopeful news is on the horizon. Snake Oil Productions, the production company responsible for Finding Bigfoot, is seeking a permit for filming in the Monterey, Virginia area. Monterey lies between the Monongahela and George Washington National Forests. Definitely a good place to look for bigfoot. We can only speculate if this means Finding Bigfoot has been signed on for additional seasons, or if perhaps a new bigfoot show is in the works. We'll keep you updated on any further announcements for sure.

Samurai Chatter: Have you used it in the field?

Editor's Note: This is a guest post by Suzie M., a sasquatch enthusiast. Crypto-linguists believe that the species known Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti/Yowie ect speak and understand a complex language, which by all accounts seems to stem from Asia. When one listens to it there is definitely a sense of it being Chinese or Japanese. It is a very odd mix of sounds, clicks and what could be actual words. This is the reason some experts are looking into the Asian dialect theory, some have said it could be a lost dialect, which was carried from Asia by the Bigfoot species that colonised America.
