Below- Alex Hearn Promoting the hoax
"We want people to understand this is a serious study," said Dr. Melba Ketchum, a genetics scientist who helped lead the Sasquatch Genome Project.
This project was conducted over five years at a cost of more than a half million dollars. The funding was provided by businessman Adrian Erickson.
Valley Bigfoot researcher Alex Hearn has carefully followed this study, and said he's pleased by the release.
"I like to call myself a cryptozoologist. The DNA study reinforces the video. The video reinforces the samples that are in the study," said Hearn.
"I don't try to change their mind with speech. I try to get as much data as I can like this and pound people with the data that we have," he continued.
