Hair did not belong to any known animal from the region such as a
bear, wolf, or goat
Mysterious mammal more closely related to man than to monkeys
Astonishing claims were made in Russia today that DNA tests on
suspected 'Yeti hair' reveals the existence of 'an unknown mammal closely
related to man'.
The 'tests' were conducted on samples of hair found in a Siberian
cave during an international expedition last year.
'We had ten samples of hair to study, and have concluded that they
belong to mammal, but not a human,' said Professor Valentin Sapunov, of the
Russian State Hydrometeorological Institute.
Nor did the hair belong to any known animal from the region such as
a bear, wolf, or goat, he claimed.
Analysis was conducted in the Russia and US and 'agreed the hair
came from a human-like creature which is not a Homo sapien yet is more closely
related to man than a monkey', said the Siberian Times, citing claims made on a
regional government website in Russia in the area where the hair samples were
allegedly found.
It stated that long-awaited scientific tests were conducted on their
hair at two institutions in Russia and one in Idaho in the US.
