My Take

Jeffrey Meldrum is a figure I find quietly compelling. A full professor of anatomy and anthropology at Idaho State, an expert on primate foot morphology and locomotion, he brought rigorous academic training to a subject most scholars treat as career poison: Bigfoot. Whatever you make of his conclusions, I respect the courage of applying serious scientific method to a topic that invites ridicule. Curiosity that refuses to be policed by reputation is rare in academia. His death in 2025 closed a singular career, and I admire researchers who follow their questions honestly, wherever those questions happen to lead them.
