I've been following this story from the beginning, and things are really starting to heat up. A photo has been taken of the body in question. Loren Coleman was given a copy of this photo which he released on cryptomundo. http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/ga-gorilla-pic/ http://www.cryptomundo.com/wp-content/uploads/thawed-creature-in-freezer11.jpg ![]() Could this really be it? |

One question immediately comes to mind after looking at the photo: why hasn't the discovery of this alleged Bigfoot carcass been announced in the national media, e.g. CNN, and/or Fox News? ![]() |

Tom Biscardi was going to go on Fox news this morning at 7:45 pacific time. Unfortunately, I don't get that channel, so I missed it. I know there's been an official press release. We don't know for sure if this is real yet, so I'm kind of glad it hasn't hit the big news stations yet. I'd rather we had confirmation. Hoaxes always make cryptozoology look bad. |

I don't believe it, but it is interesting. There's just too many hoaxes these days for me to go off of a picture. But I think this story would have been extremely huge had this been for real, I mean all over every station and every news publication. But it would be nice if it were/is legit. |

So now we know why Loren Coleman was so optimistic. It was all for show, so he could get access to the photo. It turns out he's actually pretty skeptical still, which means that I'm skeptical again. I was only optimistic in the first place because Loren was. |

Yeah, cryptomundo has been seriously overloaded lately. Understandable, with all this craze over a possible Bigfoot body. I can't get the site to work at all now. This is what Loren Coleman had to say in that article I linked to.

From Loren Coleman's statement:Neither do I. ![]() Agreed. With absolutely no disrespect to Mr. Coleman, he seems, Crow, a little too eager to jump on the bandwagon when someone posts some pic or video footage of an alleged "Bigfoot". Bottom line: I'll believe the "carcass" is a "Bigfoot" after, and only after it has been examined and authenticated, by an objective source(e.g. scientists). |

True, I think Coleman can be a bit too eager to accept. But normally I know him as very skeptical. He is passionate about this, of course, so any possibility can't be ignored. If Loren Coleman gets to look at the body, then that's enough for me. But hopefully a lot of scientists will get to examine the body. |

Indeed because, failing this, most people will probably blow this off as another "man in a gorilla suit" type of hoax. Note: Crow I removed the original image you posted and reinstalled it as a thumbnail. It was so large it was causing the default width of the page(800px) to bulge out.

Here's another recap of this: http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/clayton/stories/2008/08/13/bigfoot_claim_policeman.html According to this article the two men involved are supposedly going to present "DNA evidence" the day after tomorrow(Friday, 8-15). |

Yeah, Friday is the day, apparently. But then one has to wonder how DNA evidence will mean anything when we've got no Bigfoot DNA to compare it with anyway. I'm not an expert on this, though. I'll be interested in what happens on Friday anyway. |

OK, by now it seems pretty clear that this was all a stupid hoax. Cryptomundo seems to have crashed, but BFRO has a summary of everything that's happened. http://www.bfro.net/hoax.asp |
