This is really
good news. This hugely improves the odds
that a viable sample will find its way to a lab quick enough to avoid
adulteration and lower the direct risk of deliberate tampering. Better perhaps we can have many samples
tested. The process is now becoming
cheap enough for this to occur routinely.
Wisely they have
not limited it to a particular species.
We know from our own efforts that while there are a small handful of
often sighted cryptids, there are also additional large cryptids sharing
similar ecological niches that evade detection much better and may simply be
far less populous.
It is now one
thing to get a foot print which is often ambiguous but it pushes searchers to
look for plausible sources of DNA evidence.
The central
point however, is simply that if we get lucky we do not flub it. Recall the nosy Sasquatch that fell and got
himself killed in the late nineteenth century near a bunch of railway
workers. It will never happen again quite
the same way but we can we sure something eminently collectable will eventually
happen. With this on standby, data loss
is minimized.
A Global Call
For DNA Evidence of Cryptids
A Global Call For Evidence of Cryptids
A reputable serious British TV production
company is working with the scientific nonprofit International
Cryptozoology Museum to gather
promising cryptozoological organic samples (particularly hair shafts, teeth,
skulls), suitable for DNA testing by qualified genetic scientists, for a
potential future documentary project and the related publication of the results
in a scientific journal.
The chosen samples will be tested at the company’s cost
and the detailed results will be shared with the donor. Well-known,
world-renowned genetic scientists will be working with this project. The scope
of the project is international. The range of cryptids being surveyed encompass
the entire realm of cryptozoology, from the standard organic samplings of Yeti,
Yeren, Yowie, Sasquatch, Lake Monster, Mapinguari, Globsters to biological
indications of new populations of Coelacanths, Thylacines, Ivory-Billed
Woodpeckers and more. All evidence will be considered and screened
open-mindedly.
Please email the details of your sample or the
sample itself, under your ownership, with data on the chain of custody and
provenance to:
LColeman {@} maine.rr. com (remove the { })
Or
directly mail the sample (in a new, unused zipper storage bag or
container) with proper labeling of the date and location of collection,
your name, and speculation on what cryptid it is to:
