"Is 'Bigfoot' roaming around Holy Hill? By Gay Greisbach - GM Today Staff November 10, 2006 (Patterson photo) "A mysterious sighting in Washington County has area residents wondering if a "Bigfoot" could be roaming the wooded areas near Holy Hill. A mysterious sighting in Washington County has area officials and residents bewildered, bemused and amused. A man contracted by the Department of Natural Resources to pick up road kill came to the Washington County Sheriff’s Department to report a 7-foot-tall “animal” had taken a deer out of the back of his pickup truck at about 1 a.m. Thursday, Sheriff Brian Rahn said. According to the report, the man loaded a deer carcass into the back of his truck on Highway 167 near Station Way, got into the cab and prepared to drive away when a large black animal, very wide and larger than a bear, jumped into the back of his pickup and dragged out the carcass he had just loaded. “He was horrified and took off out of there,” said Rahn. During his retreat, the man also lost an all-terrain-vehicle ramp that he used to ease carcasses into the truck. Deputies went to the location near Holy Hill after the man reported the incident – at about 4 a.m. Thursday – and could find nothing, including the ATV ramp, Rahn said. “I don’t believe we have Bigfoot running around Washington County," said Rahn. However, deputies will do an additional follow up on the report, he said. “It will take more than this report to convince me,” Rahn said. Dick Liethen lives on Troll Hill Road, just through the woods from the reported sighting. He was out hunting this morning, but didn’t catch sight of anything unusual. “If I’m not hunting, I’m out walking the woods and I’ve never seen anything,” said Liethen. “But the gentleman must have seen something. He was pretty shook up.” Liethen has a camera set up in the woods to record passing wildlife, but said he has not recorded any images of an animal matching the description. The sighting has added to Liethen’s daily chores, however. “Since this happened I will be taking out the garbage and getting the mail. My wife says, ‘you do it,’ but the paper might wait until it’s light out,” said Liethen. Highway Commissioner Ken Pesch was amused by the report. “That’s one way to get rid of them,” said Pesch of the pilfered carcass. Reports of dead animals are sent to the Sheriff’s Department and the state Department of Natural Resources contracts with the man to have the carcasses removed, Pesch said. “We can’t touch those carcasses. You need a license, so if they catch Bigfoot, they might want to check his license,” said Pesch.I have been checking the 'blogs posted by hunters and I am finding that this story is receiving mixed reviews from members of their community. Some say that the man from the Department of Natural Resources was drinking too much beer. Others compare this to hallucinations but no one, apparently is taking this thing seriously...or are they. The hunters that I have spoken with on the CB and in person have a much different story and they take this thing much more seriously...
Idaho Professor Criticized Over Bigfoot Study
Here is another story I find very sad, but amusing. It is a story about the herd mentality and how it affects science and our lives in general. When these rules of thought are applied to various sectors of our academic and industrialized community, the crippling affects that this type of man-bashing can have will be felt by our society for many years to come. My hats off to you, professor Jeffrey Meldrum, PhD.
Idaho Professor Criticized Over Bigfoot Study By JESSE HARLAN ALDERMAN, AP (Page 1 of 2) POCATELLO, Idaho (Nov. 4) - Jeffrey Meldrum holds a Ph.D. in anatomical sciences and is a tenured professor of anatomy at Idaho State University. He is also one of the world's foremost authorities on Bigfoot, the mythical smelly ape-man of the Northwest woods. And Meldrum firmly believes the lumbering, shaggy brute exists. That makes him an outcast -- a solitary, Sasquatch-like figure himself -- on the 12,700-student campus, where many scientists are embarrassed by what they call Meldrum's "pseudo-academic" pursuits and have called on the university to review his work with an eye toward revoking his tenure. One physics professor, D.P. Wells, wonders whether Meldrum plans to research Santa Claus, too. Meldrum, 48, spends most of his days in his laboratory in the Life Sciences Building, analyzing more than 200 jumbo plaster casts of what he contends are Bigfoot footprints. For the past 10 years, he has added his scholarly sounding research to a field full of sham videos and supermarket tabloid exposes. And he is convinced he has produced a body of evidence that proves there is a Bigfoot. "It used to be you went to a bookstore and asked for a book on Bigfoot and you'd be directed to the occult section, right between the Bermuda Triangle and UFOs," Meldrum said. "Now you can find some in the natural science section." Martin Hackworth, a senior lecturer in the physics department, called Meldrum's research a "joke." "Do I cringe when I see the Discovery Channel and I see Idaho State University, Jeff Meldrum? Yes, I do," Hackworth said. "He believes he's taken up the cause of people who have been shut out by the scientific community. He's lionized there. He's worshipped. He walks on water. It's embarrassing." John Kijinski, dean of arts and sciences, said there have been "grumblings" about Meldrum's tenure, but no formal request for a review. "He's a bona fide scientist," Kijinski said. "I think he helps this university. He provides a form of open discussion and dissenting viewpoints that may not be popular with the scientific community, but that's what academics all about." On campus, Meldrum -- himself a hulking figure, with a mop of brown hair, a bristly silver mustache, and a black T-shirt with a silhouette of a hunchbacked, lurking Bigfoot -- gets funny looks and the silent treatment from other scientists, and is not invited to share coffee with the other science professors. Over the summer, more than 30 professors signed a petition criticizing the university for hosting a Bigfoot symposium where Meldrum was the keynote speaker. He pays for his research with a $30,000 donation from a Bigfoot believer. Still, Meldrum has a distinguished supporter in Jane Goodall, the world-famous authority on African chimpanzees. Her blurb on the jacket of Meldrum's new book, "Sasquatch: Legend Meets Science," lauds him for bringing "a much-needed level of scientific analysis" to the Bigfoot debate. "As a scientist, she's very curious and she keeps an open mind," said Goodall spokeswoman Nona Gandelman. "She's fascinated by it." Bigfoot is sort of the Loch Ness Monster of the Pacific Northwest. The legend dates back centuries. <--- CONTINUE PAGE 2) ----> Idaho Professor Criticized Over Bigfoot Study By JESSE HARLAN ALDERMAN (Page 2 of 2) Indian folklore includes murmurs of a man-ape that roams the hidden hollows. Sasquatch is a Salish Indian word meaning woodland wildman. Newspapers began recording sightings of Bigfoot in the backwoods during the 1920s. But skeptics have challenged the accounts, and practical jokers have staged elaborate hoaxes, including grainy film footage of someone in a monkey suit and phony footprints stamped into the ground with giant molded feet. Meldrum said it was a decade ago in Walla Walla, Wash., that he first discovered flat 15-inch footprints in the woods. He said he thought initially that they were a hoax, but noticed locked joints and a narrow arch - traits he came to believe could only belong to Bigfoot. "That's what set the hook," Meldrum said. "I resolved at this point, this was a question I'd get to the bottom of." When not in the lab, he loads his Chevy Suburban with tents and forensic gear and heads for the woods of Washington state and Northern California, where he has collected what he says are footprints, hair and feces from the ape-man. He tests hair samples and uses physics to produce charts that purport to show how Bigfoot would walk. Meldrum wonders aloud how much longer he will be on the faculty. But he said he also dreams of one day bringing back a bone or a tooth or some skin, and silencing the "stuffy academics." "Is the theory of exploration dead?" he asked. "I'm not out to proselytize that Bigfoot exists. I place legend under scrutiny and my conclusion is, absolutely, Bigfoot exists."
Please stay tuned, for the naked truth about Bigfoot will be revealed in my next message. Just remember where you heard it from. The Bigfoot Chronicles by CJ Montgomery can be found at this website:

There is a connection between Bigfoot and UFOs, as well as other monsters that have been seen with unknown objects that fly. For example there is a close association between UFOs and the Chupacabra.
