I bet no one ever thought: hey, I’m going to become a
Bigfoot tracker one day! No one, except an elusive few, who now have nothing better
to do than keep everyone begging for more details on a story that should
normally put as to sleep, but somehow manages to keep us wondering: could it be
true?
Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer are the authors of a “discovery”
that should expand our limited knowledge about the animal kingdom. Have you
ever imagined a bunch of Bigfoots running around free somewhere in unknown
parts of some Georgian wood?
According to the two trackers, they’ve got Bigfoot, and there
are plenty more where that came from (of course, we won’t know where the rest
of them are, since protecting them is a must!). The proof was made up of a
couple of photos showing an ape-like creature in a big icebox, which doesn’t
look very convincing.
What we’ve seen so far is a pair of Bigfoot trackers who’ve
managed to “achieve” more attention than any other Bigfoot “discovery” in the
past three decades.
The questions is: how long will they be able to keep us
interested, since it seems that either they want to really have all the information
before they make an official presentation of their discovery, or simply stall
us until they’ve satisfied their financial appetite.
The pair has teamed up with the infamous Bigfoot tracker Tom
Biscardi, who is a sort of an ambassador for Bigfoot trackers (although his reports
on Bigfoot have been most amusing and far from reality as they could possibly
be).
The three have promised to reveal more as they finish
analyzing the dead creature, which of course will be done by carefully selected
scientists who appear to come all the way from Russia (this perhaps explains
the delay in unraveling the mysterious Bigfoot during last week’s press
conference).
In the meantime, they gave us something to chew on: it
appears that one DNA sample taken from the creature contains traces of human
DNA, but also opossum DNA, probably from Bigfoot’s last meal, as Biscardi
explained.
But until they solve all technical issues and complete the
full scan of their Bigfoot, Biscardi and the pair of Bigfoot trackers decided
to make the most of their discovery by turning their own site into a very
lucrative business (there are price cuts too!).
It does seem rather odd that they find it hard to analyze
the creature and deliver details on time, refuse other scientists’ access to
their discovery, keep most information to themselves, but they do find the time
and resources to sell Bigfoot belt buckles and Welcome mats.
As far as I’m concerned, Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer made a
bad choice when they teamed up with Biscardi for this story, since his
credibility is quite low; but then again, until they’ll be able to prove that
they’ve captured the real Bigfood, if they’ll ever do that, their credibility
will be just as low. All I see now is they’ve discovered a Bigbusiness!
