hiflier Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 (edited) You've never accepted the science and you never will. You still think it's powerless and in its infancy? Then how can moth species in Nigeria that look identical be determined to be actually at least ten different species? Yes, DNA testing is that good. The Maine Northern and southern Bog Lemmings look virtually identical. But genetically they are different. If that determination wasn't possible then how do you think crime labs tell the DNA of one Human from another and how close is THAT? DNA study has taken me out of the Dark Ages of species determination and given real hope for BF discovery. Don't accept that? Fine. Don't accept it. I've given you real-world examples of DNA differentiation capabilities. But if you don't think it can prove a Sasquatch over a Human? Then I can't help ya.

hiflier Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 (edited) Apologizing to one member while trashing another, Inc1? Make up your mind. If you're not going to apologize to me for your "stick" comment then just get off my back and stay off.

Tell me how many of the species your naming DO NOT have a type specimen associated with the DNA sample? Are they running around Nigeria collecting moth poop Hiflier!? No! They are harvesting moths and looking at the species they collect! Some are undiscovered species! Awesome! And which of them are a undiscovered 800 lbs great ape living in North America in a non tropical environment? So science? Isn’t LOOKING for ape men in boreal forests..... And it’s not as easy as hanging a light in a tree at night and waving a net around! Ive told you a million times? I hope I’m wrong! I hope your right! Truly! Best of luck man! I’m out!

I remember seeing that one. Quite interesting! To the OP - If I ever got really good footage, I'd probably release it after showing it to knowledgeable folks who could verify it. Our sighting video? I'm 100% confident in it and I'll go to my grave defending it. If we got lucky and got another sighting, like a daytime sighting that was even better, I'd want to share it, because it'd be freaking cool - unless the location could easily be identified. I wouldn't want to endanger them needlessly. Edited April 7, 2021 by Madison5716 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a really interesting one to me, not enough to push me off the fence but interesting. Reading from @Somerset that the family had asked for it to be taken down also lends an air of credibility about it to me....... Do we know why they asked for the clip to be removed?

I vaguely remember it was because a lot of people wanted to stake the place out because the owners had said that BF showed up on a regular basis hence why the kids etc weren't going OTT when it showed up in the video, they'd seen it all before. I also think it was a holiday home so I guess unoccupied at times so security was a worry, I may be wrong but it's what I think I remember.

WSA Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 This kid’s video makes me all the more think that Mitch Hedberg’s old joke is true: “I think Bigfoot is blurry. That’s the problem” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
