Will the existence of Bigfoot be confirmed by science in 2009?

Background: Call it what you will: Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Nape -- stories have been told for decades, if not centuries about a large, bipedal ape-like creature stalking the forests of North America. Is it possible that these creatures are real? And, if so, will science confirm the existence of them in 2009?

Settlement details:Question will settle as Yes if a legitimate scientific journal describes a bipedal ape population living in North America, and designate it with a scientific genus and species. As reported by a major mainstream news source.
