About the Author

Dr. Russ Jones has been in private for over 30 years and is passionate about the Bigfoot phenomenon.

He wrote two award winning books, Tracking the Stone Man and The Appalachian Bigfoot. He co-hosts the Wide-Open Research podcast on the Untold Radio network.

After graduating from Huntington College, where he had a baseball scholarship, he also graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic. He has a Bachelor of Science degree and a doctorate degree.

Dr. Jones is also a certified master naturalist. He attempts to blend a science background with a lifetime of hunting, trapping, and outdoorsman knowledge to gather possible evidence of an unacknowledged North American primate.

He enters the woods with his faithful lab "Shade" to tend to his dozens of professional game cameras and to look for other possible Bigfoot evidence year-round in Appalachia.
