    Major rumours went round at the time that the hair had come off a tanned skin. The tested hair did not have follicle tips on it which indicated than it had been treated.

    I also know the guy that planted it so there's another clue.

    Ok. Not really factual though offering hints and knowledge of rumours. Not digging at you, but rumours is how a myth or legend is created. The Moose existing or not, is a potential reality either way. Facts supporting either case can't be ignored. I'd like to think they still exist, but I feel it is highly unlikely they do.

    Yea me to;, Id like to think they still exist down there but unlikely. But not impossible
    I've read Ken Tustins book and very interesting. I personally know two of the guys who found hair and had it positively identified back in 2001. Ken refers to this in his book and the only reason these guys thought it was even worth testing was because of the "browse height" which they said was well above what they could reach, and definitely higher than any deer or Wap could reach even standing on its hind legs.
    Does make you wonder
