Oxford Launches New Hunt for Yeti DNA Samples

The article was about the Oxford is launching a new hint for the yeti due to a newly found footprint and newly found DNA.  The scientist are saying that maybe the sample does belong to a yeti or some type of beast unknown to science, and they are saying it could be boring as a bear. So a team of researchers at the University of Oxford and the Lausanne Museum of Zoology are trying to find out if the DNA sample is good or not. Cryptozoology is the study of animals whose existence is not proven. The new collaboration is called the Oxford Lausanne Collateral Hominid Project and its members are asking for institutions to submit cryptozoological (the word i just told you about)samples. The First thing the Oxford group wants to do is a list of known organic matter, and then they’ll ask for the samples so they can create DNA analysis.The yeti is also  known as Bigfoot or Sasquatch and various names elsewhere in the world. No shortage of explorers and adventurers have searched for the mysterious creature, some of which have appeared at times. If private collections and museums around the world lend suspicious samples, DNA will tell the truth, Sykes said in a statement. Oxford’s news release says the results will be published in peer reviewed journals. They are saying that they will most lily come out with something. personally i think we should just observe this wild beast instead of trying to track it down.                     
Personally it looks like a human shoe print just in the same spot see you can see the heal print and the toe print at at the bottom and top left.
