Bynum, Joyce. “Bigfoot: A Contemporary Belief Legend.” ETC: A Review of General
Semantics. Vol. 49, Issue 3, 1992, pp. 352-57. Bynum's article outlines the history of Bigfoot's folklore, sightings, mythology, and fictional exaggerations. The many variations of the creature include sightings and encounters from all over the world. All accounts have the same qualities in common: man or ape-like creature, emits a high-pitched scream or whistle, covered in hair, and possess a strong body odor. On every continent people believe Bigfoot is some type of hominoid displaced by homo sapiens.

Sasquatch was given the name Bigfoot only after a flurry of sightings in Northern
California. The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization have compiled extensive research data of Bigfoot's anatomy including many variations and types of the creature. Fahrenbach believes Bigfoot is a large, hairy, bipedal non-human primate.

Accessed 25 Sept. 2016. Dr. Ketchum's website claims they have discovered Bigfoot, with supporting details from video, audio, hair, DNA, and a downspout bite mark. She has submitted the DNA for testing to many laboratories across the country, she also tested it herself. The results came back as modern human DNA, although many of the labs believe that the DNA did not come from the Bigfoot or that the samples were simply contaminated. Ketchum believes that the Bigfoot is a modern human being that suffers from a medical condition called hypertrichosis, which renders a person to grow hair all over their body.
