(Here's an update in the news regarding the Bryan Sykes DNA study. This is not wriiten by anyone on Team Tracker. The writer it appears is not aware of the fact that the Smeja DNA came back
as bear neat.)
Dr. Bryan Sykes, |
Here's some updates on two events related to Sasquatch here which have
gained the attention of many researchers.. The first news is an
exciting update that the results of the Oxford-Lausanne Collateral Hominid which
is being conducted by Bryan Sykes, a Professor of Genetics at the University of
Oxford, will most likely be published in late October or November. Bigfootology president Rhettman Mullis, who has been
helping to receive and collect alleged Sasquatch samples for Sykes's study,
had announced on May 12 that the reception of samples for the project was now
closed and that the last alleged Sasquatch sample sent to Sykes for analysis was
a large sample discovered on the New Mexico side of the Navajo Reservation.
Mr.
Mullis informed us that the reason that publication of the results for the study
was delayed was due to an incredible response to alleged Sasquatch sample
requests, which had resulted in a continued supplying of samples which lasted
past the previously set due date. Interestingly, Professor Sykes has been
visiting North America recently in order to speak with some of the researchers
who have submitted samples, and he has also met with US Fish and Wildlife
officials at one of their main laboratories located in Melford, Oregon. It has
been revealed that Professor Sykes was in California very recently to speak with
Justin Smeja, and also to be filmed for a documentary detailing his study which
will be released on BBC Channel 4 once the results of the many samples tested by
Sykes are published in a scientific journal.
As noted in a previous article,
avid hunter, outdoorsman, and hunting guide Justin Smeja claimed to have shot an
adult and juvenile Sasquatch near Gold Lake, California in 2010. Although this
story may sound outlandish, many people (including some credible and well
respected people in the "Bigfoot community") have expressed trust in Justin's
story and have said that he has been extremely open and willing to discuss it,
as well as being able to pass a polygraph test. During the alleged
encounter, Justin was accompanied by a driver of the truck which they were in
who has also been willing to discuss the encounter.
\When they witnessed the adult, Justin opened
the truck door and shot the primate (which then ran away wounded). While
searching for the adult body, Justin and the driver allegedly encountered two
large headed juvenile wood apes which "mumbled" to one another as they were
apparently searching for their parent. Going against the driver's will, Justin
Smeja shot one of the juveniles which rolled down to his boot. Justin then
realized that he had just killed a very human-like juvenile primate, and was
disgusted with himself.
It has also been reported that there was the threat of
game wardens visiting to see what happened. Allegedly due to these factors, he
then frantically hid the juvenile's body in a bush, planning to return. When
returning a few weeks later to look for the remains, Justin found a piece of
flesh (that he did say may have not belonged to the animal which he allegedly
killed as he had found it weeks later and after snow had hit the area) which
later was found to have belonged to a black bear. However, Justin also has the
boots which he wore that day, which had blood on them from where the dead
juvenile wood ape allegedly rolled onto them. Samples of this blood were sent
for analysis by Professor Sykes, which I had previously discussed in this article. So is it possible that Sykes has
discovered that the blood on Justin's boots are of an unknown species of ape
(and please note that the term ape encompasses humans), and this is the reason
that he has spent so much time and money into traveling to America in order to
speak with Justin and other researchers? Perhaps, but this will not be known
until the results of the Oxford-Lausanne Collateral Hominid Project are
published in a scientific journal this fall.
