====Esteban Sarmiento==== [[Esteban Sarmiento]] is a specialist in physical anthropology at the [[American Museum of Natural History]]. He has 25 years of experience with great apes in the wild. He writes,<ref>"Conclusions Reached by Dr. Esteban Sarmiento ... (affiliations follow)," in Murphy (2009), pp. 94–99</ref> "I did find some inconsistencies in appearance and behavior that might suggest a fake ... but nothing that conclusively shows that this is the case."<ref>Murphy (2009), 94</ref> His most original criticism is this: "The plantar surface of the feet is decidedly pale, but the palm of the hand seems to be dark. There is no mammal I know of in which the plantar sole differs so drastically in color from the palm."<ref>Murphy (2009), 95</ref> His most controversial statements are these: "The gluteals, although large, fail to show a humanlike cleft (or crack)."<ref>Murphy (2009), 96</ref> "Body proportions: ... In all of the above relative values, bigfoot is well within the human range and differs markedly from any living ape and from the 'australopithecine' fossils."<ref>Murphy (2009), 97</ref> (E.g., the IM index is in the normal human range.) And: "I estimate bigfoot's weight to be between 190 and 240 lbs{{nbsp}}[{{convert|190|and|240|lbs|kg|round=5|abbr=on|disp=out}}]."<ref>Murphy (2009), 98–99</ref>
