Idaho Professor To Hunt Bigfoot With Drones
Jeff Meldrum, an anthropologist at Idaho State University, is spending $200,000 to scan the Cascades with drones. The unmanned aircraft will use thermal imaging equipment to peer through thick forest in search of Sasquatch.
"We're simply asking a biological question: Is there a species of primate behind the legend of Sasquatch?" he said.
Other professors in the field have called any questions about Bigfoot a waste of time.

TR already has done this with less sophisticated technology.

Good for Jeff, though I think he would have better results in the mid-west and some eastern states.

Is it still a “drone” if Michael Medved goes along for the ride?

If he REALLY wants to find a big, hairy beast his best bet is to search around 1600 Pennslvania Ave. in Washington, DC.

It would be a lot cheaper & more effective to put in trailcams.

For the last time, I didn’t make those fake Bigfoot tracks in the woods!
(And how was I supposed to know that the ape-suit picture would become legendary?)
I mean...I know nothing.

“It would be a lot cheaper & more effective to put in trailcams.”
But drone IR data might locate grass patches. Just think of the ramifications of that amongst the Academented.

this will make one hell of a ‘messin with Sasquatch’ commercial for Jack Links.
