A Global Call For DNA Evidence of Cryptids

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 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:
