Here are quotes from Dr. Ketchum's facebook page on Dec. 30th. A person asked Dr. Ketchum about the lemur issue on her facebook page:
Melba, I just reads this from a link on Facebook... "After gathering enough evidence, Ketchum ran a DNA analysis on her samples. Much to her surprise, she discovered the mitochondrial DNA was human, but the nuclear DNA belonged to an unknown hominid. Ketchum theorized that around 15,000 years ago, a now-extinct giant lemur mated with a female human. The result was Bigfoot."
This is Dr. Ketchum's response:

"In response to the post about lemurs: I never said that at all. What I did say was in response to them being an ape human hybrid which I do not believe at all. They are closest to human in the tree of life we generated in the paper. If you look at it, human is in the middle and apes are to the right and lemurs to the left as are Denisovans (though they are not shown). I said the progenitor was closer to a lemur than an ape which is true. It had been brought up that there was a giant lemur that was extinct and it would have been closer than the great apes. What I said has been twisted like a game of gossip amongst children so now the haters say I said the progenitor was a giant extinct lemur. I NEVER said they came from lemurs. Go look at the tree from the paper, it's Figure 16."
