Bryan Sykes Bigfoot DNA Test Results Not Showing Signs of Bigfoot
Alright everybody, here's the deal: Bryan Sykes did not find evidence of a new primate species.
I know. That's why hair samples suck as evidence. Perhaps this is why some people think we need a type specimen -- or a body. According to a study published today (July 1) in the journal Proceedings of The Royal Society B, the hair samples donated to Sykes that are supposedly from Bigfoot are actually hairs from cows, horses, dogs and even a few extinct bears. Yahoo News reported on this earlier today:
Bryan Sykes, a geneticist at the University of Oxford in England, teamed up with Mullis and other researchers to solicit hair samples from supposed Bigfoot sightings around the world. If the sightings were real, the thinking went, then the DNA should not match that of any known animal.
The team received 57 samples, one of which was actually a piece of fiberglass, the researchers said. After winnowing down the samples to the most likely bets, the team did a genetic analysis on 36 of the samples.
Almost all came from known animals, including cows, horses, raccoons, humans, deer, coyotes and even a Malaysian tapir. None of the samples, however, came from a completely new primate species, the researchers said.
For DSM and Joe!
ReplyDelete? Who is DSM
DeleteFirst for DSM and Joe!
DeleteDear Sweet Mike (DSM)
DeleteOh.... I second you first then!
Delete? 'A' for effort but not for 'first'
DeleteWhy IGNORE the fact that bigfoot ain`t REAL ...?
DeleteDr Sykes says so...get REAL.
Who is this Dr.Sykes you speak of?
DeleteJeff Meldrum bigfoot hunter like Matt and BOBO! looking for bigfoots .....
DeleteIf you read the first six or so articles which appeared yesterday about the Sykes paper, you would have found it interesting that as a man, Sykes puts stock in some eyewitness accounts and some evidence, and that as a man he believes it's possible relict Neanderthals are what some people have reported seeing. Interesting, that.
Deletewhys those Brits trying to take US over again!
DeleteSchooled.
ReplyDeleteWhat will you do now that u have nobody to fight with?
Delete^ A$$holed and arrogant for no reason.
DeleteMy comment at 2:28 was for Crampz.
DeleteI guessed it :)
DeleteWithout a fight, Crampz won't survive. That's how he boosts his arrogant ego and tries to make himself seem bigger.
DeleteBask in the void left, while laughing at PJ trying to pretend nobody knows when he's posting anonymously. I guess it's 'Guerilla Joe' all over again.
DeleteYou lost, fair and square. Deal with your own penalty, Joe.
Honestly Daniel, I respect his passion and enthusiasm for the subject. He's on a bigfoot blog making an argument for their existence. He merely responds to trolls that feel the need to childishly troll a blog about something they don't believe in. I don't understand the hatred you and others have for him. I don't believe in most of the world's religions, I don't go to a blog and insult people for their beliefs, I simply avoid the blog.
Delete+ 1000
Delete+ 100,000 to what Big Jon wrote.
DeleteI'm the same anon absolutely sick of Crampz, defending Joe and DSM.
AGREED!
DeleteAnd that's your opinion, which is fine. If he wasn't so confident and sure, he wouldn't have rehashed the bet in the first place. Joe destroyed himself.
DeleteYou don't see me having consistent issues with respectful posters. Only one person was a constant jerk.
You don't see me saying a word about Mike, do you? He's willfully joined and is doing whatever of his own accord, he has integrity, something PJ doesn't. Which is why he'll try to post anonymously before having some epic meltdown and welching on his own bet.
^ You make me sick with all your arrogant lies.
DeleteDC- you go anon and attack- Thats why you think you look so shiny. its easy to see its you when you do it
DeleteIt does say on the banner that the site provides evidence for people to draw their own conclusions so chastising people for coming on here and not being belivers is pretty dumb. Plus, you've got to accept the fact that as much as anything Bigfoot is a pop culture phenomena like zombies, Batman, Elvis, Garfield or Nessie. How many movies, tv shows, books or comics has Sasquatch been in? He's like a classic peice of Americarna so people are interested in Bigfoot whether they believe in it or not and you'd think a site called Bigfoot Evidence might be the place to go for the latest news, no? If you are a doubter wouldn't this be the ideal site to look for videos etc that might make you a believer?
DeleteDC's MEAN croney
DeleteSick of you too
DeleteAbsolutely! But coming here with sole purpose of belittling believers is juvenile and there is quite a lot of that here.
DeleteFor 3:08
DeleteAfter re-reading the banner it says "evidence and arguments" if everyone is a beliver then you'll only have one opinion and no "argument."
DeleteAgree, Big Jon! That's why Crampz being here is such a joke!
DeleteWhere does it say personal attacks hmmm?
DeleteI didn't lose a bet either.
DeleteI am not impressed
DeleteThe bet might be the only thing you didn't lose, Campz. You've lost all self-respect and the respect of most of us here.
DeleteDC, is it true Joe kicked your ass in a street fight last month?
DeleteYep, it is true, 3:22.
DeleteWut?? Joe beat up daniel? OMG hilarious!!!! Where did they fight?
DeleteI admit there are people on here that write insults but just ignore them! If your belief in Bigfoot is so strong I'm sure that a couple of comments on a blog wouldn't change your mind! I think it was mostly Joe that launched into the name calling and the arrogant "schooled" comments instead of engaging in rational debates. If you believe that your viewpoint is the only acceptable one and anyone who is on the other side is a moron or fears the "truth" then you're not going to be able to engage in debate. Joe is an irrational, arrogant conspiracy nut who needs to realise that not everything posted by crazies on YouTube is true. It's a pity because it's not like he's a dumb guy if he could only learn to say "I was wrong" every now and again, might guess is he 's a very young man with a lotta growing up to do.
DeleteI respect your opinion.
Delete^ Hypocrite!
Deleteoops! meant for the post above yours, Big Jon.
DeleteSo somebody tell me about the fight with Joe and dc. Did joe knock him out? Did anybody tape it?
DeleteJoe knocks DC out daily here. That's why DC is so vindictive.
DeleteNo Joe just cut and pastes and makes many unsubstantiated claims
Delete^Daniel
DeleteNo not Daniel just one of the many who don't enjoy trawling through mountains of Joe's cut and pastes
DeleteThan go to another blog or start your own dipshit
DeleteHe has no need. Sykes cleaned this place up a bit. Perhaps you should take your grumpy lips off of Joe's arse and ask him where he plans to go post, then head that way.
DeleteWhat happened to your blog DC? No hits?
DeleteSykes is coming Sykes is coming
DeleteWhats the matter Cramps? Scared?
Tick tock tick tock
Sykes is coming
You'll get Sykes and like it
Not enough time to run a blog, nor is the will there. It's still there should I change my mind. I'm sure you'll be the first to look.
DeleteAnd with only four posters on the blog it just wasn't fun.
DeleteIf you want to be pouty all morning, I'll bid you a good afternoon and leave you to your misery.
DeleteThanks Dan you're a gentleman and scholar.Now gtfo.
DeleteDr Sykes..........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DeleteI won't believe any of this until Dr. Sykes close personal friend, Rhettman Mullis, says it's true. :)
Delete^ Sorry--bad punctuation. Sykes' or Sykes's is correct. So get off my back, grammar police.
DeleteACHTUNG!
DeleteSkeptics and Supporters should be able to have discussion without the childish name calling and ranting. Big Jon is absolutely correct.
DeleteTrue dat.True dat.
DeleteWell that pretty much seals the deal. Bigfoot don't exist.

DeleteBipto rage quitting BFF and Sykes delivering the final death knell for footery. What a day!
ReplyDeletePlease explain Bipto rage.. I missed it
DeleteNo one was buying his wood ape tales. Not happy.
DeleteEven the bleevers were calling him out on his lies so Cryin Brian packed up his toys and went home.
DeleteBipto will be back. He always comes back. He's just waiting for his followers on BFF to mourn his passing, curse at the cruelness of the world, and cry out for his return.
DeleteOK, I just went over to BFF to read Bipto's latest temper tantrum. This seems like a case of someone making extraordinary claims but providing absolutely no concrete evidence to back them up. Of course sceptics are going to jump all over that. He shouldn't be upset when he gets called out, he should instead provide the compelling evidence he claims he has.
DeleteOr maybe he should just keep his mouth shut.
DeleteTrue dat.True dat.

That's because Sykes went into his "examinations" with a set agenda, a PRE-JUDGED notion that there IS no such a thing as a Sasquatch. We see his type 365 days a year in the countless snarky wiseguy personas who post here. We all know their ilk; nothing that can ever be said, shown, heard, viewed or experienced will ever change these type of skeptics from their (what I believe is) fear-based conclusions. It's either fear or they are paid to downplay and scoff, laugh at, make fun of any and everyone who has an open mind on this subject. Bryan Sykes fits neatly in there, I actually think he's a paid agent tasked with a not-so-hidden agenda not unlike those who worked on the Project Blue Book case studies.
ReplyDeleteProject Blue Book
"From 1947 until 17 December 1969, the United States Air Force actively investigated reports and sightings of unidentified flying objects - UFOs, under a program called Project Blue Book. Project Blue Book investigated 12,618 UFO sightings and 701 of those sightings remained unidentified. Many UFO researchers feel that the investigations of the UFO sightings were unprofessional and unscientific. The program used poor research methods and researchers were too eager to label a mysterious sighting as "identified" phenomena. Individual researchers and UFO organizations believe that members of Project Blue Book were pressured to "identify" UFO sightings to calm the public hysteria about UFOs. This theory has been supported by the recent release of CIA documents pertaining to UFOs. They also suggest that any report that was initially perceived as unexplainable or would cause public concern was never included in Project Blue Book. They allege that these reports were passed on to a higher authority that never reported the results to the public. Project Blue Book, it seems, was just a low level collection and disinformation program created under Project Sign (of December 1947) which evolved into Project Grudge (of December 1948) to cover up the true investigation into the alien presence on Earth."
If Sykes had an agenda then why would he have conducted any kind of study in the first place? Didn't he start the study after a tv show gave home a Yeti hair to test? If he was on a misson to damage Bigfooting in any way then why reach out to the community to get samples to test? If ever there was a study with a preconceived agenda that changed results to fit their beliefs wouldn't it be Ketchum's?
DeleteBigfoot is yet to be proven to exist so unless you're studying a live or dead specimen your starting point would obviously be "Bigfoot isn't real." If he stated that "Bigfoot can not be real" then you might have a point but he didn't so you're just making unsubstantiated claims against Sykes or trying to formulate a conspiracy theory. Have you ever heard about the indepth study the Russians did on American UFO sightings during the Cold War? They came to the conclusion there was a conspiracy to deceive the American public about the existance of ETs and UFOs. The deception was that they allowed the American public to believe that there was a massive conspiracy by the Government to make the public believe they were covering up the existance of ETs. They wanted you to believe that those strange lights you'd seen were UFOs NOT the experimental aircraft they were secretly working on. It's all a cheap trick, missdirection they make you believe you're seeing UFOs then pretend to "cover up" your sighting when really what you saw was a new aircraft they were testing and didn't want the Soviets to know about it.
A "PRE-JUDGED notion that there IS no such a thing as a Sasquatch" will NOT change samples from unknown primate to known species. The samples are what they are. All the crying in the world won't change the results. Get over it and bring back the real deal.
Delete4:40: "If he was on a misson to damage Bigfooting in any way then why reach out to the community to get samples to test?"
DeleteIn this hypothetical scenario, of course Sykes would "reach out" (a terrible current cliche, ugh, stop saying it) for samples, because declaring and daming the samples which are supposedly "the best" the "bigfoot world" has to offer is the top most efficient way to push this hypothetical agenda. If you had this agend, of course you would request samples from researchers, then "find" what you want to find, which simultaneously harms the researchers and the topic.
You asked this question as though you were making a point again; but as you can see you made a point in favor.

DeleteDon't trip out, nobody cares about spelling..
DeleteDem AK's gits U A melonhead fer shur.
Brian Sykes is todays equivalent of the type of person tasked who was with Project Blue Book

ReplyDeleteIf you believe Sykes report, then you are a fool1 it's like hearing Barack Obama is a Trustful, truthful president,
These PHD nerds don't want a new species found! if Big foot was proven to exist, THEY would all look like fools.
Don't believe This Sykes report! He has his Agenda. . . . .
"They don't want a new species found."

Deletebigfoots are for kids you silly wabbit
ReplyDeleteI was just like a lot of you on here, I didn't believe in Bigfoot (only difference is I would bad mouth those that believe). Then one day while bow hunting I have an encounter. I promise you Bigfoot is real, that or someone had a pet gorilla that they taught to walk on two legs had gotten loose that day. Ever since that time, not only do I believe, but I am attempting to prove they exist.
ReplyDeleteIt looks to me like you had your chance and you blew it. Just think. You could of out Smeja'ed Smeja. Then YOU'D have been a G-list celebrity.
DeleteBe tough to take one out with a bow.
DeleteAnd would be pretty hard to pull the trigger on one I should think. Smeja's a b.s'-er If Smeja's hunting buddy and driver when all this happened comes out and has an interview - I'll assess further.
Large mammals have been brought down with the bow and arrow for thousands of years. Bigfoot isn't the exception. If he's real, then he bleeds. And if he bleeds, he can be killed. You should have whacked him.
DeleteYes large mammals have been brought down with bows. What I said was "it would be tough to do". I doubt you bow hunt at all or spend any time in the woods/wilderness.
DeleteAnyway - a typical bow shot is within 25-30 yards. 40 or so is really pushing it. A bigfoot isn't going to stand "broad side" and present you with a type of shot that a deer or bear would. A MUCH smaller target to hit...and he better be very close if you are having any thoughts about drilling it.
Plus -- if you miss...he'll rip your head off and crap down your throat am sure.
(Not the same guy who posted the bow story - fyi)
And you'd be wrong. I live in mid-Missouri. Hunting and fishing is a way of life around here. If you can't hit a supposed 8 foot tall, 4 foot wide target, you need to get out of the woods and back to the range. The ideal spot on a white tail is the size of a dinner plate at best. I would assume a bigfoots would be closer to a man hole cover. And if he rips your head off, so be it. Better than getting plowed over by a lady yacking on her cell phone don't you think?
DeleteOkay - good...you know how to hunt with a bow.
DeleteOf course were speculating on "target size" but I would guess that you'd have a similar target size (for a quick kill).
Having had my own 'encounter' many years ago (which is why I've bothered to put in my 2 cents...along with the person above) let me say I am glad I had a rifle and not a bow.
Ladies and gentleman, I give you the Great White Bawana.
DeleteThat was for 7:37.
Deletedraconian gun control bill set to be voted on by the California legislature would allow police to confiscate a person’s firearms solely on the basis of an accusation made against the gun owner by a family member or a health professional.
ReplyDeleteifn u gona takes tham guns hows u gona shots tham bigfoots...........
DeleteNothing new there dumbass. If ANYONE makes an accusation against someone involving a firearm, knife, sledgehammer or anything else, of course they are going to confiscate it. It's called collecting evidence you twit.
Deletefor sure who needs the Fourth Amendment, that protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures by the government.
Delete^sweet u piss me off i make a statement - they come and take your stuff : )
Delete^^ The problem is your definition of unreasonable. If your own family claims your a whack job with an AR-15, fuck your rights. You have no more business owning a firearm than a 5 year old owning a monster truck.

DeleteGRAYs are real - bigfoot not so much
Delete6 58. I can tell you exactly what happened. Even though a vague description of the property was given it was enough for some people to find the location. The home owners did not want outsiders to bother them so the BFRO administration took it down. What a shame. Tremendous report showing what can happen when a bigfoot family becomes attached to a property and especially a young child that they took a very keen interest in. In this case it was a young 4 year old girl. I can also tell you those involved to not think the bloody nose received by the young girl was intentional, instead an accident when a juvenille bigfoot climbed through her window at night. Also once the doors were locked and access to both the garage and house was denied by the homeowners the frustrated bigfoots would bang on the house at night, but seemed to have accepted the rules have changed and harrassment has stopped.
DeleteChuck
Because the homeowners stopped making up fairytales

DeleteYou mean "It doesn't mean Sasquatch" .
ReplyDeleteIm sorry......Im new here, pardon my ignorance. Did the Snellgrove party find unknown dna? Has it been found elsewhere? What does it mean, if anything? Thanks.
ReplyDelete9 30. Yes. Curt Nelson who was on the snelgrove expedition with Melrum is a microbiologist from University on Minnesota. He did DNA testing himself on some tissue sample from the screwboard left on the porch. Result - Unknown primate. Chance of it being human was 1 in 5000. Meaning. The creature that tore up the cabin and at later date stepped on the screw board was an actual bigfoot. Could have been the same one that actually launched the rocks at the party during the expedition.
DeleteChuck
Your mom gave me a job on the corner last night.
ReplyDeleteAllah liked that - just saying - he did like it....
ReplyDeleteHere was my first thought when I saw his program: Sykes program was on Nat Geo. Nat Geo is struggling in keeping up with the juggernaut that is the discovery channel's bevy of channels. Not only does the Discovery channel have a bunch of channels that have their own bigfoot show. Successful Bigfoot programs. Whether it's the Russian Yeti, or Finding Bigfoot, or Monsterquest, or name your show thats on the Discovery family of channels, Nat Geo doesnt have one program as successful as those others. So if they even get CLOSE to the subject they have to do what they can do to undermine the success of Discovery.
ReplyDeleteThey probably had a template before they even approached Skyes on the program and instead of being a show on their own findings of what the Bigfoot phenomenon is about, they set out to shoot it down from the start
you have obvious mental problems. seek medical attention
DeleteSup dork.
DeleteAverage JOE. I understand where you are coming from. I am not sure how this all worked but the Bigfoot Files was produced by I believe, Icon Films, most likely a British company and was shown first in England. I do not know if Nat. Geo funded money for the production or if they won a bidding war to show it in the US. I can say that in the past Nat. Geo put out some of the worst bigfoot productions ever, however in 2011 or 2012 they produced one of the best ever, forget the name, showing 5 different analytical and scientific methods all pointing to the fact the creature does exist, including Chilcutt, Munns, and 3D imaging of Patty and the compliant gait.
ReplyDeleteAs for the Sykes paper it was predictable and I said as much last November after seeing the first Bigfoot files show. Both Mark Evans, a know nothing of the subject hosted it, Icon Films produced it, and both had an agenda that was not favorable.
If you read this thread it is a statement just put out by Matt Moneymaker who was privy to some of the shenigans involved and will give one a good idea of why the results are what they are.
http://s2.excoboard.com/BFRO/124725/2434088
I will just add nearly half of the samples in the Sykes study could not be identified.
ReplyDeleteChuck
Then those samples are worthless for the purpose he was needing. Testament to the level of skill these amateur bigfoot field researchers have.
DeleteIt's utterly amazing how truly stupid people can be. There is zero evidence of this giant ape, zero physical evidence, yet these believer douchebags try to create bizarre fantasy conspiracies where scientists intentionally hide real evidence because they are afraid for some reason to have this new (imaginary) species acknowledged. Bigfoot believers are a really special kind of stupid.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, Patty really was a man in a suit, and it doesn't matter if the suit never turns up. A suit is a suit, and a lack of any biological evidence ever, EVER, confirms that Patty was a suit. No bigfoot remains ever, wooden feet and a film made by a guy who bought fur gorilla suits, hung out with the likes of Crash Corrigan the gorilla man, case closed. No sasquatch, only fakes.
