Bigfoot Hunter Brags About Killing a Bigfoot; Called a Hoaxer ... Again; Bigfoot Supporters Say Nothing to Animal Protection Agencies: Save Bigfoot From Poachers

Bigfoot Hunter Rick Dyer says he shot and killed a Bigfoot and is going to take the corpse body on a tour of America. But Dyer has cried Bigfoot before. Like the boy who cried wolf, people take the Bigfoot Hunter with a grain or two of salt.

Former used car salesman Rick Dyer was responsible for a Bigfoot hoax back in 2008. The bigfoot hunter says she shot the creature in Washington, although earlier reports said he shot the bigfoot in San Antonio. The bigfoot hunter plans to charge people to see the body of the Bigfoot. Dyer welcomes all scientific tests, but has had the animal stuffed.

Primatologist Natalia Reagan thinks that is a little fun. "It's strange that he chose to have it taxidermied rather than have better-preserved live samples sent for testing."

Natalia Reagan is one of the judges from Spike's new "10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty." Todd Disotell, a professor of anthropology at New York University who also runs NYU's Molecular Anthropology Laboratory and another judge on the show calls Rick Dyer's claim that he shot and killed a bigfoot last year "completely worthless." He says "Dude, I'm not going to take your word [for] it or your crappy picture. Show us real data."

Dean Cain, the actor who portrayed Superman on the hit television series "Lois and Clark," hosts Spike TV's "10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty."

Bigfoot hunter, Rick Dyer, released photos of the creature he allegedly shot and killed last year. The pictures and a documentary landed the Bigfoot hunter in court, but not over cruelty to animals. Isn't Bigfoot an endangered species?

In September 2012, Rick Dyer claimed he shot Bigfoot in a wooded area of California near Loop 1604 and Highway 151. The hunter made a documentary to prove it. The documentary was called "Shooting Bigfoot." The Bigfoot hunter got the body back from the government and wants to show it to America. Investors in the Bigfoot documentary took the hunter to court to prevent Dyer from getting the body back. Dyer released a photo of "Bigfoot" on his website.

The Bigfoot hunter has been caught in a fraud in the past when another Bigfoot he shot turned out to be a rubber suit of an ape.

But Dyer says this new photo is no con. He told KSAT "Bigfoot is 100 percent real -- there's no question about that."

Dyer swears "Every test that you can possibly imagine was performed on this body -- from DNA tests to 3D optical scans to body scans. It is the real deal. It's Bigfoot and Bigfoot's here, and I shot it and now I'm proving it to the world."

Dyer plans to take the Bigfoot's body on tour across North American Mexico and Canada. That way he can charge people to look at it. PT Barnum would be proud.

The problem is, because Rick Dyer was caught in a con once, his reputation has been damaged and his credibility is gone. Even if it is Bigfoot, no one wants to believe him.

Dyer says he will share the DNA tests. He's already shown the body. He says "We wanted to get people's reactions, make them believers, and we did it to over a 130 people. We definitely made them believers."

The Bigfoot hunter swears "Bigfoot is not a tooth fairy -- Bigfoot is real. The most important thing to me is being vindicated, letting people know that I am the best Bigfoot tracker in the world and it's not just me saying it."

The most important thing is Dyer being vindicated? There's a dead freaking Bigfoot out there and nobody's doing anything about it. If this is a real animal it should be protected. If it is a rare animal it should be doubly protected. If it's an endangered species, Dyer may have committed a crime against science and nature.
