DNA ‘evidence’ for Himalayan yetis doesn’t bear scrutiny
Posted: October 20, 2013 at 5:44 pm
Enough evidence?
The recent DNA testing of two hairs, purportedly from yeti, has attracted a lot of public interest. Does the evidence show that yetis exist?Well, not just yet. The test looked at mitochondrial DNA sequences, which looks at genetic material that is only inherited from the mother. This is a relatively easy test, because mitochondrial DNA is present in many copies in every cell, so there is more to work with in small or degraded samples.
Critically, the testing was conducted in a lab that works primarily on humans, and it produced sequences that turned out to be bear-likespecifically polar bear-like. We havent seen the data, but we would find this result convincing. If Bryan Sykes, professor of human genetics at Oxford University, had found the DNA to be human, there would be questions about possible contamination, because a tiny fleck of skin can easily contribute spurious DNA.
Assuming that the hair samples came from polar bears, the next question is how they came to be in the Himalayas. Many alternative explanations need to be eliminated before we can take this potential discovery, and its relationship to the yeti legends, seriously.
It is possible, for instance, that the hairs got to the Himalayas by accident.Journalists, explorers and scientists interested in the worlds colder regions may well visit both the Arctic, where polar bears live, and the Himalayas. Could hairs travel between these places either on or even as part of clothing or mementos? Possibly. If someone found a putative yeti footprint and, when crouching over it, a polar bear hair fell onto the snow, we can imagine that the person would forget what they are wearing in the excitement.
If the hairs did not get to the Himalayas by accident, then we must consider the possibility that they were placed there deliberately. History is littered with hoaxes, from Piltdown man to the famous photos of the Loch Ness monster. Writers might be motivated to produce a good story. Locals might like to increase tourism. Rogue scientists might want to take credit for solving a riddle or perhaps even play a joke on colleagues. For a scientific prankster, what better artifact to place in the middle of Asia than polar bear hair?
We know nothing about the circumstances in which these hairs were collected, but to take the bear story at face value, we would need to see a lot of solid evidence that a spoof was out of the question. Such evidence is not easy to come by.
What if the hairs were not placed there deliberately? Then the story gets more interesting, though it would still be somewhat difficult to swallow. A polar bear could do a good imitation of the storybook yeti. Rearing onto its hind legs it would appear huge and frightening. And bears living in perennially snowy conditions, like most other species, would tend to evolve white fur: prey species dont want to be discovered while predators need to be able to sneak up on their prey unseen. However, bears are large, warm-blooded species that need a lot of food.
Polar bears survive by eating seals, which are seasonally abundant and provide large chunks of high-calorie blubber. A similar species of bear living in the Himalayas would probably find life more difficult. These regions are not bursting with energy-rich fruits and berries or mammals to feed on. We struggle to see how a large species like a polar bear could obtain sufficient nutrition. This is even more of a problem if we are to believe there is a viable population numbering at least in the tens, and probably a in the low hundreds. Why are there not more sightings?
To dismiss all stories of this sort would be wrong. New species of mammal are occasionally discovered, even now, and there is the famous case of Homo floriensis, the so-called hobbit, a recently extinct form of human found in Indonesia. However, even these discoveries are open to revision. New research has questioned whether Homo floriensis could be considered different from Homo sapiens.
