Possible species, nicknamed hobbit. Come on now.
Otherwise nobody would care. Like calling the Higgs boson a "god particle." It's ridiculous and I hate it, but there's no way to get casuals to pay attention to it otherwiseWell, small human-like creatures are likely to have existed. Calling them hobbits just makes it sound like nonsense. xD Which is what I think is going on here. Calling this new DNA they've found "Sasquatch" DNA makes them sound like complete lunatics.
This is why nobody takes science like this seriously.
Anyway all the article says is that they just uncovered a new Hominini hybrid species. I wouldn't be surprised if it did turn out to be a sasquatch-looking creature, but I also wouldn't be surprised if all their data was complete bunk made up to get in the news or get more money, because that's the kind of world we live in now apparently. All we can do is wait for the peer review and see if everyone agrees on whether or not there is a Bigfoot out there somewhere. Hopefully there are no redneck or hillbilly rebellions based on "WE TOLD YOU SO" because a lot of that would happen just outside my city and I don't think I could handle a beef jerky embargo xD
