Canadian scientists are performing DNA tests on a tuft of hair said to come from a sasquatch, a legendary ape-like creature also known as Bigfoot.

Geneticists at the University of Alberta have been given the hair by witnesses who say it came from the mysterious animal.

The residents of a Yukon town say they saw the creature earlier this month.

The scientists say they think it unlikely that the hair belongs to a giant ape.

Witnesses in Teslin say they saw a tall, ape-like creature lope past a house in the middle of the night, leaving behind large footprints and a clump of hair.

I'll bet you a dollar that the hair turns out to contain polyester. When you see a giant ape-like creature running around your yard at night it is most likely someone from the drunken costume party next door.

It turned out to be a bison. Kind of a bummer, but expected.


We are quite sure – we are absolutely certain, in fact – that this hair sample comes from a bison and not from a new species of primate," Coltman told CTV Newsnet.

That Sylvia Browne chick said the other day that bigfoot is a creature on another plane of existance, or something like that the other day, like fairies and leprechons(sp) and things like that. She said that we could see them sometimes but actual proof of one living among us would never be found. Dunno if I believe much of what she says,but I would like to believe that because bigfoot scares the crap out of me.
