[Confirmed] Man Bear Pig Sighting in Wellston, Ohio, Appalachia!

Breaking news: Think Gene has recently received a civilian report [edit: confirmed] of a Man Bear Pig sighting in Appalachian Ohio!

I would like to know the sponsoring agency for the thinkgene website.
today my students were surfing the web and found your man, bear, pig [editor: Man Bear Pig, April 1st 2008]. At first glance my students thought it was real. I encouraged them to read on and to do more research.
Anyone who post things on the web has a civic duty to clairify and correct. People that just look at photos and headlines are mislead daily.
the internet’s main goal was not for entertainment…. but for knowledge. Leave sci fi to the movie industry.

From Al Gore of manbearpig.net:

The manbearpig epidemic is of pandemic proportions. If there is anyone left alive in Wellston, Ohio please recommend that the school’s budget would be well spent on razorwire and a few of these

P.S. Tipper says high school students shouldn’t be looking at pictures of naked manbearpigs. She says to please think of the children.
