Date: 12-11-14
Host: George Noory
Guests: Dr. Jeffrey Meldrum
In the first half of the program, professor of Anatomy and Anthropology at Idaho State University, Dr. Jeffrey Meldrum (book link), discussed the latest efforts in the search for Sasquatch. One promising new avenue, he said, is the Falcon Project, which proposes using a drone to capture stealth video footage of the creature. According to Meldrum, the enterprise aims to develop a 35-foot long UAV, dubbed ‘The Aurora,’ which could carry an array of advanced imaging equipment and remain in the air between eight to ten hours at a time. Thanks to the help of several benefactors who contributed the money needed to build and equip the craft, Meldrum revealed that “if all goes as planned, the launching of the Aurora may take place as early as next Spring.”
He was also particularly enthusiastic about an upcoming conference in 2015, to be held in South Africa, which will gather researchers from around the world and focus on the various Sasquatch-esque creatures that have been reported and studied throughout the globe, such as the Yeti, Almas and Orang Pendek. He expressed hope that such an expansive conference will give rise to more serious public and media interest in cryptozoological mysteries. Over the course of his appearance, Meldrum also shared his opinion on the DNA studies that were done by both Melba Ketchum and Dr. Bryan Sykes as well as the Bigfoot research being conducted by Todd Standing in Canada.

I stayed up and listened to this Coast 2 Coast episode. I didn’t hear anything absurd or different coming out of Meldrum’s mouth. Actually Meldrum sounded more to sway towards scientific proof rather than dermal ridges that proved it all. Plus Noory let him speak rather than cut him off! =p
