The men, Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer, were joined in the press conference by Tom Biscardi, host of an Bigfoot Internet radio show, who said the men approached him with their “find,” saying, “We want to talk to Tom Biscardi… They didn’t want to meet anyone else.”

Biscardi showed reporters two blurry photos, claiming one was the mouth of the “creature” while the other was another creature running through the Georgia woods. The men claimed they “stumbled on the creature,” but would not reveal more because they were concerned about it being an “endangered species.”

Biscardi reiterated his invitation to FOX News Channel anchor Megyn Kelly to come to Georgia and view the body, and plugged his Internet radio show.

He said there wouldn’t be anything more revealed Friday, but promised that he would “assemble” a group of scientists to examine the alleged corpse.
