Sierra Sasquatch writes “I stop in at ISU at meet with Dr. Meldrum. He believes that there is in fact three individuals and not four with the 9 inch also being the 10 inch. He identifies toe feature that are present with both 10 and 9 inch. Although I was able to get some answers it also created more questions like these tracks looking more human that the traditional large sasquatch track. It is difficult to connect the tracks I have cast with the anatomical differences in the traditional large sasquatch tracks. Maybe this is altogether a subspecies? It is no doubt real the real question is whether the same group of people are traversing through some really rugged stuff through the snow and traveling great distances all while barefoot? What do you think?”

In his quote here he acknowledges these tracks are anatomically different from what he distinguishes as larger sasquatch tracks and looks more human. Not sure why he makes a larger smaller distinction. You know maybe they are human and Meldrum identified them as such. He doesn’t say that Meldrum signed off on them being sasquatch. The size even puts it in the average human range. Its not a subspecies nor can we ponder that a 10 inch track will have different anatomy than a 15 inch track. I saw the other video and photos and in my opinion those are human footprints.

The larger/smaller animal distinction may be causal to the overall differences in the shape of the track, I’d think is why he says that. Some animals tracks are noticeably different depending on gender/age.
Unless the casts were detailed enough to reveal skin details from shape alone it will probably be too close to say if it’s human or small sasquatch. He suggests they could be human but puzzled as to WHY based on the location where they were discovered.

I feel confident that Meldrum will figure out this quandary. Although some tracks appear much bigger there are witnesses on this site who have stated that the young females can appear more human. Perhaps ancient Sasquatch characteristics can differ significantly from those of the last thousand years. Just saying there could be more of a modern hybrid mixture now.

Lots of good stuff from Sierra Sasquatch.
Knobby
Young sasquatch footprints have the same typical pattern as adult sasquatch prints. Even he realizes, after talking to Dr. Meldrum, that his casts are untypical; so, then he suggests it could be a subspecies of sasquatch. But I think its another species besides sasquatch, namely Homo sapiens. People do walk barefoot in the woods sometimes, and people do hoax too.
Knobby
I found a trackway that I assume was a mother and child. The adult had 15 inch long prints, 5 inches at the heel, 6 inches at the ball of the foot, and the toes splayed out to 7 inches, which they sometimes splay their toes on slippery surfaces for traction. The tracks were 4 feet 1 inch from heel to heel. The younger one’s tracks were 8 inches long and was also a typical sasquatch.
And sorry if I come across too forward on this, but I’ve seen lots of videos/photos of people trying to pass off human footprints for sasquatch like they are just like ours when they are not, even photos of the big toe turned inward with a bunion from wearing pointed shoes. Sasquatches do not have arches, they are flat footed. You can see an arch on some of those, the heels on his casts are too narrow (like we have), and the toes on sasquatches don’t taper off like you see in these casts. They are more even with a slight tapering off. Juvenile features are not going to drastically change from his 9 and 10 inch prints when they become 14 and 15 inches long. I don’t know where his going by talking about Meldrum’s bigger tracks, I’m sure Dr. Meldrum must have juvenile tracks as well, and it seems a bit disingenuous to note a distinction.
His casts are typical human footprints.

Yes, it would make sense that if there is an arch in the footprint it most likely came from a human not a Sasquatch.

Yeah…the guy himself SAID they could be human, Knobby. He just found their locale extremely odd if so. That’ s how it can be sometimes…one person’s EXTREMELY ODD scenario, is just another person’s unique daily routine, or whatever.
