Bart thanks for the detailed summary and timeline on this truly extraordinary event. Much makes absolute sense. If there is a question that the two samples may be different and from two distinct species wouldn't it stand to reason that a simple screen (karyotyping) to determine chromosome numbers (46 human vs. 76 for black bear) solve this quite quickly ? I would think that there would be enough tissue on the sample to perform this analysis. Also Bart can you give us your perspective on Justins finding of a piece of "stand alone" tissue of black bear that is the same color phase as the purported creature that was shot in very close proximity to the kill site. Having trouble on those odds Bart ! As always thanks for your diligence and transparency here Bart... Big Stinky
