Bigfoot is real and there is DNA to prove it, claim researchers

"Dr Melba S. Ketchum, of DNA Diagnostics". I just heard about this paper the other day, at http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2013/02/13/sasquatch-... .

I've confirmed that denovojournal.com has this as its only publication.

I wish people would stop posting this thoroughly debunked "news item". The original paper describes a sloppy procedure in which field-contaminated samples were analyzed and unsurprisingly discovered traces of both human and animal DNA, and the results were published in a hastily created non-journal after all the real science journals refused to publish it.
