Surface Anatomy and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Features in the Analysis of the Patterson-Gimlin Film Hominid
Bill Munns, Jeff Meldrum, 2013. The Relict Hominoid Inquiry 2: 1–21.
Compares surface features of the film subject (skin folds and fat distribution) with real human and great-ape bodies, and argues that features previously attributed to costume flaws occur in real ageing or untoned bodies, so they do not show a costume.
What it's used for here
The main published anatomical argument for a real animal.
