BIGFOOT RESEARCH HALL OF FAME

Roger Patterson (February 14, 1933 – January 15, 1972) Cowboy made the famous Patterson–Gimlin film (also known as the Patterson film or the PGF) is an American  film of an unidentified subject which the filmmakers have said was a Bigfoot now named Patty (after Patterson). The footage was shot in 1967 in Bluff Creek in Northern California, and has since been subjected to many attempts to authenticate or debunk it. John Russell Napier, MRCS, LRCP, D.Sc. (1917 – 29 August 1987) was a British primatologist, paleoanthropologist, and physician, who is notable for his work with Homo habilis and OH 7,[3] as well as on human and primate hands/feet. During his life he was widely considered a leading authority on primate taxonomy,[1][4] but is perhaps most famous to the general public for his research on Bigfoot. Don Jeffrey "Jeff" Meldrum (born May 24, 1958) is a Professor of Anatomy and Anthropology and a Professor of the Department of Anthropology at Idaho State University. Meldrum is also Adjunct Professor of Occupational and Physical Therapy. Meldrum is an expert on foot morphology and locomotion in primates. He  wrote Jeff Meldrum (2007).

Throughout his professional career, Krantz authored more than 60 academic articles and 10 books on human evolution,[1][2] and conducted field research in Europe, China, and Java.[3][4] Robert "'Bob" Gimlin (born October 18, 1931) cowboy that made the famous Patterson–Gimlin film (also known as the Patterson film or the PGF) is an American  film of an unidentified subject which the filmmakers have said was a Bigfoot now named Patty (after Patterson). The footage was shot in 1967 in Bluff Creek in Northern California, and has since been subjected to many attempts to authenticate or debunk it. Paul Freeman (August 10, 1943 – April 2, 2003) was an American Bigfoot hunter who claimed to have discovered Bigfoot tracks showing dermal ridges. The plaster casts Freeman subsequently made were convincing enough to be considered critical pieces of evidence by anthropologists Jeff Meldrum of Idaho State University and Grover Krantz of Washington State University, who put considerable time and resources into studying them. Others, like René Dahinden and Bob Titmus thought Freeman was simply a hoaxer seeking attention. Paul filmed some fat bigfoot animals.
