Bigfoot hand - DNA news

I may be product of too much TV, but is it true with that much flesh you can't get a decent DNA sample? Don't they get samples from fragments of teeth and such? I would have a thought they could at least confirm it was a bear with all that.
 
Nothing conclusive - what else is new.....

Certainly there's no new admission that DNA testing is a useless point.

If "no usable DNA" can be retrieved from this hand, then the argument that the DNA magic bullet should be able to identify an uncatalogued creature should be recognized as a blank round.

Biscardi less than honest - what else is new again.

Nothing, on that front.

However, anybody who has read this and still claims that DNA is the magic bullet is also less than honest.

I hate to mention a bear to Huntster when talking about bigfoot, but posters at Cryptomundo are saying this may be a skinned bear paw with the claws lopped off.

It doesn't look like it to me.
 
And now, the rest of the story:

It seemed odd that the police weren't too interested..... :D

Well, like many elements of this story the police angle has yet to be verified. How likely is it that a police department would relinquish evidence (especially biological evidence) to a civilian?

Also, note that the hand itself was not submitted to the DNA lab, only two samples. We have to take Biscardi's word for it that the samples came from the hand.

Consider too that Monroe has previously presented human hand casts as Sasquatch evidence, at least one with an anomalously short left thumb...

Short thumbed Sasquatchs seem to be Don Monroe trademark.

I'd rather avoid the risk of becoming embroiled in a libel lawsuit, so I'll just let the evidence I've presented so far speak for itself.

Here is one of Don Monroe's hand casts next to my hand. Please note the anomalously short left thumb. By the way, It's not just me who judged these casts as human, Monroe sent his cast or casts to Jimmy Chilcutt who came to the same conclusion.

That Monroe is involved in the "Hand of Doom" doesn't surprise me at all...

Thanks for putting those two images side by side, Hunster. Clears up a lot. It is obviously a modified bear claw. They are almost perfect matches.

I'm not a doctor, and don't read lots of x-ray images, but I see big differences between the two.
 
Hutster,

I saved both images you linked to, and put them in Paint, made them the same size, and it looks to me like they are the same. Were you trying to show that a bear paw is different from this supposed crypto-hand?
 
I had guessed that Huntster actually thought they were different, but decided not to go there.

They are clearly the same "hand" to me as well. They've chopped off the claws and half of the "thumb", imo, and part of the "wrist". The mystery hand being on the left here.

DNA can be ruined if the propper care with sample collection and preservation are not taken. Among the things that called my attention, a particular item is the nature of the fluid in which the "hand" is immersed. Check http://www.forensicdna.ca for some more detail.

Anyone familiar with Tube's posts should be aware of whats he's talking about. Its more than enough to raise some red flags, at least for my standards of evidence quality. Lets say there are parallels with Ivan Marx story.
 
Hutster,

Yes. The bear skeleton Raphael linked to shows the ends of the toes clearly as joints, where the claws have been removed. The xray of Biscardi's hand does not.

I think I see other subtle differences, too, but will withhold comment on them.

The image you've attached on the left is clearly Biscardi's hand.

What is that image on the right? It looks like a human hand.

Do you claim that the image on the right is a bear's paw?
