This will turn out to be a hoax, I know this because I used to work with a self-proclaimed Bigfoot expert & he said that the reason nobody has caught a Bigfoot is "because they are so cotton-picken' smart", he also said that they bury their dead, which is why we've never found any bones.

I had no idea that Ted Kaczinsky was even interested in Big Foot.

This is the photo they handed out.
What the hell was he talking about when he said you could make out details like the ears?

Georgia men claim hairy, frozen corpse is Bigfoot
USA TODAY
Two men who claim to have stumbled across a Bigfoot corpse in the woods of northern Georgia indignantly stood by their story at a news conference in Palo Alto during which they offered an e-mail from an entomologist as evidence and acknowledged they wouldn't mind making a few bucks from the "find" they have kept stuffed in a freezer for over a month.
"Everyone who has talked down to us is going to eat their words," predicted Matt Whitton, an officer on medical leave from the Clayton County Police Department.
Whitton and Rick Dyer, a former corrections officer, announced the discovery in early July on YouTube videos and their website. Although they did not consider themselves devoted Bigfoot trackers before then, they have since started offering weekend search expeditions in Georgia for $499. The specimen they bagged, the men say, was one of several apelike creatures they spotted cavorting in the woods.
Biscardi fielded most of the questions. Among them: Why should anyone accept the men's tale when they weren't willing to display their frozen artifact or pinpoint where they allegedly found it? How come bushwhackers aren't constantly tripping over primate remains if there are as many as 7,000 Bigfoots roaming the United States, as Biscardi claimed?
"I understand where you are coming from, but how many real Bigfoot researchers are out there trekking 140,000 miles a year?" Biscardi said.
Biscardi, Whitton and Dyer presented what they called evidence supporting the Bigfoot theory. It was an e-mail from a University of Minnesota entomologist, but all it said was that of the three DNA samples sent to the scientist, one was human, one was likely a possum and the third could not be tested because of technical problems.
At least one other Bigfoot researcher, Idaho State University anthropologist Jeffrey Meldrum, called the trio's claims "not compelling in the least." He told the Scientific American that photographs posted on the website "just looks like a costume with some fake guts thrown on top for effect."
Whitton and Dyer have offered three different accounts of how they found the beast's remains.
In early videos, the animal was shot by a former felon, and the men followed it into the woods. In a second version, they found a "family of Bigfoot" in the north Georgia mountains. In the third, the two were hiking and stumbled upon the corpse with open wounds.
In one of their YouTube videos, they are shown speaking with a man they identify as a scientist. Earlier this week, they admitted that the man was Dyer's brother. Dyer said they were simply having fun.
Asked why anyone should believe his claims when he already had shown a flair for tomfoolery, he suggested that skeptics simply are jealous.
"They don't have a choice to believe us. We have a body," Dyer said.

Ok, so they have Big Foot. They held a huge conference sporting their "trackbigfoot.com" gear, yet everyone is doubting them just as much today as they did yesterday...
They have released like 4 crappy pics... wtf?
OK, these are the guys,
You have to be f***ing kidding me! I hope some Big Foot fanatics make their lives miserable.

The article has a link to this guy's costume design website called Bump In The Night Productions. The guy was convinced that this was a costume he designed especially for one company. He said there's a "warehouse full of these costumes in Virginia", and that these guys must have put something like deer teeth and eyes inside the costume to enhance their "real" appearance.BTW, here's what FBG's had to say about their belief in Bigfoot/Chupacabra, etc awhile back: Link

This whole story is just funny. It's amazing how quickly people were ready to believe this nonsense.

they're taking the body for "analization." I hope that doesn't mean what it sounds like.

A friend of mine swears he saw Bigfoot behind the Piggly Wiggly going through a dumpster. He yelled out to it and he said Bigfoot ran away but with crazy high strides like he was an astronaut on the moon. Oh yeah, and this friend is completely not the type who exaggerates.

I respect copyrights too. What I don't respect is a failure by certain industries to recognize the need for a dramatic overhauling of their pricing structure in the face of a world where digital media can be had for free.I am happy to pay fair market value for products. Some industries simply need to understand that market value has changed.I absolutely would if I thought it were infringing. I haven't, however.

Not what happened. A girl and her father claim to really want to make it in the business and put out sub-par recordings. The thread wasn't started for kind words of praise and I offered the kind of critique and feedback that one who is serious about being a professional should be able to appreciate. The fact that the OP lashed out at me and suggested I was happy that his daughter failed suggests to me that he did not absorb the criticism. IF his daughter is to succeed, she has to have less praise and reinforcement for mediocrity and more training and self-awareness. I wouldn't have offered the feedback I did if I didn't think the OP was genuinely interested in his daughter pursuing singing professionally. Anyone who want to do anything at a high level should be willing and accepting of brutal honesty. When you're talking about an industry where a fraction of a percent make it, there's no room for making mistakes.I would suggest that the poster of that thread was less interested in real feedback than reinforcing an apparent sense of entitlement. His daughter needs to work very hard to reach the level of professionalism she desires. I made them aware of that. No one likes to hear that they are not good enough YET, but that's a prerequisite to growth. And I'll tell you something else... No one is going to grow if they live in denial that they aren't good enough. I hope I burst a bubble in that thread, because based on what I heard she wasn't NEAR good enough YET.Says the guy that trashes pre-teen girls on their singing ability just for kicks.Grow up.I'd rather do that than sponsor greedy execs from record companies that steal from the consumer and the artists.I'd just ask you this...

That's hardly in the same league as stealing because you think corporations can afford it. There are distribution outlets for artists who don't want to accept the large payments from those companies. And those companies have real people who work for them. The revenue from their sales supports an industry of artists, technicians and everyday people -- all of whose livelihoods you interfere with by stealing from them.
I hope you can see where rendering an opinion and theft are not comparable.

I agree with this. Many industries are trying to live in the past and need to undergo a sea change. Television is facing this as well. It still doesn't justify stealing.I respect copyrights too.
