'Yeti' specimens identified as dogs and bear in DNA analysis
A DNA analysis of nine specimens supposedly from Yeti, mythical ape-like hairy snowman believed to roam in the Himalayas, has revealed that the remains, in fact, belong to a dog and eight bears. The US-based researchers also analysed 15 other "yeti-like" samples from zoos, national parks and museums, the majority of which were known to be from Himalayan brown bears.
