Topic: Bigfoot
Don Jeffrey Meldrum is a renowned anthropologist best known for his extensive research and media appearances regarding the elusive and controversial subject of Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch.

He later obtained his Ph.D. in Anatomical Sciences, with an emphasis on anthropology, from Stony Brook University. His academic journey provided him with a strong background in the study of primate anatomy and locomotion, which became instrumental in his Bigfoot research.Meldrum’s interest in Bigfoot was sparked when he encountered a set of large, mysterious footprints in the mountains of southeastern Washington in 1996. This experience led him to apply his scientific expertise to the study of evidence for the existence of Sasquatch. As a professor at Idaho State University, Meldrum has conducted extensive field research, analyzed footprint casts, and collaborated with other scientists in the search for this elusive creature.His approach to Bigfoot research is grounded in a rigorous scientific methodology, focusing on physical evidence such as footprints, hair samples, and visual sightings.
