"He is also one of the world's foremost authorities on Bigfoot, "

How does one become an authority on something that does not exist?

WASHINGTON COUNTY - Is "Bigfoot" on the loose in Washington County? A man working near Holy Hill early Thursday morning swears a 7-foot animal attacked his pick-up truck.

The guy didn't want to go on camera because he's afraid people will think he's crazy. His job is to clean up deer carcasses after accidents. After loading up one in the early morning hours he got in his cab and started filling out paperwork - That's when it happened.

He felt the truck shake, so he looked back and saw a giant creature. He claims it was big, wide, hairy monster stealing the deer carcass. The man hit the gas, drove off and left the "monster" and deer carcass behind.

People who live in the area can't believe this one. "I've been here 35 years I've never seen nothing anything like that," said Andy Benson.

There have been some Bigfoot sightings in Northern Wisconsin, but as far we can tell, this is the first sighting in Washington County.

Dick Liethen also lives in the area, and will never say never. "Being 65-years-old, about the time you seen it all, something else pops out. So maybe he's right! You never ever know."

Idaho professor an authority on Bigfoot = Idaho professor an authority on NOTHING!

"Bigfoot, also known by the native name Sasquatch"

Is it true Sasquatch means "hairy mother-in-law" in some native tongue?

If there were bigfoot, the wolves would have killed them by now.

If Bigfoot doesn't exist, how can the author call him "smelly"? :)

Oh man. Don't get started. There is no such thing as Bigfoot. I'm always getting into arguments with people here in the Rockies about that. I can't believe how there are so many people who actually believe in it.

I'm agnostic on the subject, leaning skeptical.

I guess one of my biggest blocks is: how, in America, where every square foot has been trampled by some idiot with a cell phone, can such a large, distinctive creature still have neither been captured nor killed even once?

Meldrum firmly believes the lumbering, shaggy brute exists.

Could be a nocturnal animal which hibernates during the winter and detects human presence from miles away through a heightened sense of smell or hearing. Maybe he's been discovered many times by hunters who don't live to tell the story. Something has to explain the feces Meldrum keeps bringing back to his laboratory.

"...receives funny looks and the silent treatment from other scientists and is not invited to share coffee with the other science professors."

What's the down side?

Meldrum wonders aloud how much longer he will be on the Idaho State faculty.

Not to worry, there's plenty of room at one of our fine institutions here in California....Berserkeley perhaps, or maybe Santa Cruz.

have called on the university to review his work with an eye toward revoking his tenure

I don't recall ever seeing the sentence with reference to Ward Churchill.

I believe that there is a better chance that there is a bigfoot, than there is that Churchill is a scholar.

[ Jeffrey Meldrum holds a PhD 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, also known by the native name Sasquatch, the mythical smelly ape-man of the Northwest woods. And Meldrum firmly believes the lumbering, shaggy brute exists. ]
