Is
Bigfoot A Hybrid?
This
Isn’t Looking Good!

Last
week, Dr. Igor Burtsev from the International Center of Hominology in Moscow,
Russia released a statement attempting to confirm the existence of the creature
known as Bigfoot/ Sasquatch. The doctor went on to explain that the creature is
a hybrid product of a union between a male “unknown primate” and a female human
“of unknown species.” And this hybridization is known to have taken place no
more than 15,000 years ago.
And
not long after that, Dr. Melba Ketchum
released her statement basically approving Dr. Burtsev’s statement and
findings.
Then
when Dr. Burtsev was asked why he came forward with the information, he made
the statement that he did it because American science publications refused to
publish Dr. Ketchum’s paper. He went on to say that we deserve to know the
creatures really do exist and to know what exactly they are.
We
were all poised to be happy about one aspect of these findings, and that is in
having it confirmed that the creature actually exists and we can stop
wondering. But the nature of the DNA findings was curious at best. A
hybridization between two species? It sounds interesting in theory, but the
problem is that it’s not possible.
That
is,at least according to zoologists. It seems there is no way such a
hybridization could occur between these two species and produce the fertile
offspring needed to continue the line to our modern day sasquatch as we know
him. Such a union, like crosses between horses and donkeys to produce mules,
would produce sterile offspring that would have no hope of reproducing at all.
In order to produce a strong, fertile genetic line, and to produce a type of
human offspring, the two species’ involved would have to be basically the same
species: human.
So
why would these the heads of these high profile projects release such
information knowing the story has a big, gaping hole in it?
And
why do magazines in the US refuse to publish Dr. Ketchum’s findings? Is it
because they know this story doesn’t hold water, or is there something deeper
at work here?
Only
time will tell. And we’re still waiting for Dr. Ketchum’s DNA results to come
through.
But zoologists may weigh in to this debate
before it’s all over. It will be interesting to hear what they have to say.

A Closer look at Mules -
A mule is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse. Horses and donkeys are different species, with different numbers of chromosomes. Of the two F1 hybrids between these two species, a mule is easier to obtain than a hinny (the offspring of a male horse and a female donkey). There is no known instance of a male mule siring offspring.
Mules and hinnies have 63 chromosomes, a mixture of the horse's 64 and the donkey's 62. The different structure and number usually prevents the chromosomes from pairing up properly and creating successful embryos, rendering most mules infertile.
There are no recorded cases of fertile mule stallions. A few female mules have produced offspring when mated with a purebred horse or donkey. - Source: Wikipedia
