Lake Linden, MI (PRWEB) April 26, 2005 -- On April 20, 2005, Toronto talk radio host Glenn Pelletier of 570 News interviewed Lisa A. Shiel, author of "The Hunt for Bigfoot: A Novel," concerning the April 16th alleged sighting and filming of a Bigfoot creature in Manitoba, Canada. When asked by Pelletier if Bigfoot exists, Shiel drew upon her years of research and analysis of documented sightings and declared, I would say yes, definitely."
When pressed by Pelletier to explain how such a rarely observed creature could exist, Shiel replied, People see it more often than you might think. Most of the sightings just dont get reported to the media."
Shiel has a masters degree, has studied archaeology and anthropology, and can read and write ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Coupling this background with an in-depth study of Bigfoot sightings across the US and around the world, she wrote "The Hunt for Bigfoot: A Novel" to present her own theories about the hairy hominids (popularly known as Bigfoot or Sasquatch) and human evolution in an entertaining format easily accessible by a general audience.
More recently, Shiel has turned her academic research and inquisitive mind to writing a nonfiction book on the subjects of hairy hominids, human evolution, and alternative archaeology to answer the question — What are the true origins of humankind?
During the radio interview, Shiel addressed a prevalent theory that Bigfoot is a species related to the extinct Gigantopithecus by noting, There is very scant evidence for what that creature looked like. I tend to think theyre more like us."
Shiel went on to explain how film footage claiming to show a Bigfoot is examined by experts from many fields, including Hollywood special effects, to look for telltale signs of ape-suited men, computer enhancements, or alterations.
