Guest Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 (edited) Does anyone know what animals don't have an undercoat? Edited June 6, 2012 by Sommersby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I remember that pelt now. I can't believe we've just let that thing languish for so long in a closet. Why haven't you contacted Loren? He can get these analyzed at no cost I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southernyahoo Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Does anyone know what animals don't have an undercoat? I read that the musk deer has no undercoat. They are from siberia from what I gather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indiefoot Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 The folks at CFZ who own this forum can get evidence tested at no cost, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 If you look you can can follow the dark patches and you can see the outline of the animal and possibly the head and ears on the left. looks to be 4 legged animal...small bear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimB Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I live on a farm that has highland cattle. They have tanned a couple of hides. The hair is consistant with that density but not the color, although I have seen darker specimens than what are on this farm. I"m just gonna throw this in the mix here for fun- Tim B.

Guest Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 This crazy goat could be another possibility. I've mailed some hairs off to a member who volunteered to analyze them under a microscope and who has several North American animal samples as well as (I can't verify this) a BF hair for comparison. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 this is a really interesting thread, cant wait to see what it is. definetly nothin that i can recognise although the goat pictures seems to be the closest so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branco Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Few (if any) forensic hair labs will be able to identify the hair by the scale pattern, the shaft/medulla ratio or the medulla itself because they have no certified Bigfoot hair specimen with which to make a comparsion. The lighter colored hair in the OP photograph could be from a Bigfoot, but if so, the best they will we able to say is : "The hair pattern exibited an imbricate scale pattern, uniform pimentation, a translucent amorphous medulla and significant diameter variation along its shaft. The hair was not consistent with any animals hair species in the XX XXX XXXX animal hair reference collection." When the hair expert was asked if he was able to rule out either of the three primary racial groups based on established models for each group, his response was: "Looks mostly Caucasian and most likely not head hair". (The evidence at the location which the hair was retrieved indicate the BF hair was snagged on a fence barb from the buttocks area.) I have one specimen of that hair mounted on a slide. The hair from a black BF will no doubt show that it nearly matches either the hair of a Mongoloid (Asian) or Negroid (African) Some of the black hairs are very difficult - and at times impossible - to evaluate under an optical microscope, and have been discounted as having been from a BF. P.S. - There is a forensic lab that has an "Animal Hair Atlas" on a CD which they sell. Anyone interested can send me a PM and I will provide further info.
