The Sasquatch Research Dream Team


Recommended Posts

A trend is showing up every week after Animal Planet airs an episode of "Finding Bigfoot." After the broadcast, it seems that more and more people are becoming disenfranchised with the series and cast, myself included.

So, if you could build your own research team, who would be a member and why?

My picks for now are:

Dr. Jeff Meldrum- currently the only academic that has published peer reviewed research on this subject.

Bart Cutino- Knows how to operate night vison/thermal and has experience in the woods.

Stan Courtney- An amazing sound recorder who can analyze the frequency of many animal sounds and compare them.

Autumn Williams- A veteran field researcher who has experienced hoaxing firsthand

Jimmy Chilcutt- A fingerprint expert who has investigated purported bigfoot prints.

If people want to criticize researchers' techniques and histories, there are plenty of other threads BFF to do so. Please keep this positive, as no one is right and all of this is pure speculation.

I look forward to reading your ideas!

I'd put a mammalogist or wildlife biologist such as John Mionczynski http://www.squatchopedia.com/index.php/John_Mionczynski on instead of Chilcutt. I'd put a couple extra audio people on the team (let Stan choose two) one of which has a specialty in night-time photography. I'd want a professional tracker on the team that agrees with the purposes and goals of the team (like a Leigh Culver but has more mobility than Leigh like a Matt Pruitt). But mostly I'd put people on the team that can keep their mouths shut in the woods and listen.

From the sounds of a recent thread you'd be remiss without your bear hunter too (if you are in the kill camp, and remove Autumn Williams), not my cup of tea though. I'd say one of the Olympic Project team members would be good to monitor ridgelines and set up perimeter cameras.

Don't you think there should be one person on this team that will say: "HEY GUYS, REMEMBER THAT SOUND THAT WE JUST HEARD? THE ONE THAT YOU SAID WAS A BIGFOOT? YEAH THAT ONE, THAT WAS A COYOTE."

or perhaps a person that would say "HEY GUYS, THAT THING YOU THINK IS A BIGFOOT PRINT? THAT WOULD BE A BEARPRINT"

or someone to say "OHh you got a thermal image? Really? The recorder didn't work?"

Cool Beans..

Mine would be below :

Derek Randles : Superb Field Expert, Tracker, great experience, no frills, gets to the point & that's all that matters. One of the first names on any of my Sasquatch Lists.

Rick Noll : Another superb Field Expert with great experience & some great ideas. Always strikes me as being forward thinking & open to new ideas where Research is concerned.

Jeff Meldrum : Got to be done, the Scientist..

Bart Cutino : Level headed, passionate & i believe he'll get even more success with the equipment he uses over time.

Bobby O : If for nothing else but as Sasquatch bait whenever needed & the ability to keep everyone's spirits up & put a smile on their Faces when needed.. ;)

Folks, you can have as many members on your dream team as your desire. I'm enjoying your choices and rationale behind them.

The pro kill angle is an interesting perspective.

Fox Mulder and Dana Scully would be a plus to any team!!

Ah yes, and the A Team too- "I pity the squatch who eats all my pancakes!" "Hey sucka, quit throwin' rocks at my van!"

What about the Goonies?! They found Sloth, now they can find something a bit more hirsute.

Seriously, back to real people, what about Jane Goodall as a bigfoot researcher?

My choice would be the following.

Elvis - Because even Sasquatch would become jealous when his old lady is throwing her panties at the King.

Chuck Norris - If Sasquatch gets out of line at any time during the team investigation, Chuck can roundhouse kick him in the face.

Justin Bieber - Preteen bigfoot bait.

Steve Austin - The Six Million Dollar Man, not the wrestler. Who better to lead an investigation than a guy that had fought with the big furry oaf many time during the 70's?

Mr.T - Because he'd pity the fool! And he ain't getting on no airplane Hannibal!

Paula Deen - She can make Chicken Fried Bigfoot for the team after a roundhouse kick from Chuck Norris puts bigfoot's head into orbit.

Dr. Jeff. That's all you would ever need. Is he not the most bad-ass bigfoot researcher?
