Is Melba Ketchum a "Real" Doctor?
Editor’s Note: Nadia Moore has a degree in Zoology from U.C. Davis and currently works in Biotechnology. She has been a lifelong Bigfoot enthusiast, with her first personal experiences taking place in the Trinity Mountains of Northern California where she lived on a remote ranch during high school. She also a contributor to the After Hours show with Team Tazer.This post is in answer to the claims that I have seen circulating regarding Dr. Melba Ketchum not being a "real" Doctor, and not being qualified to perform a genetic study. So let's take a look at what it takes to become a Veterinarian in the United States, and what "Title" that entitles one, pun intended, to use. Currently in this country to be accepted into Veterinarian School you have to have completed a 4 year degree in a scientific discipline (Bachelor of Science) as well as fulfilling other qualifications of grade point average, character, experience, and potential, just like Medical School.
Sometimes a person is admitted without a 4-year science degree if they have other outstanding experience or qualifications, but this is the exception. Vet school takes 4 years, just like Medical School, upon which many Vets then take internships/residencies, just like Medical School, if they want to specialize in a certain area of medicine or kind of practice, but unlike Medical School completion of a “Residency” is not a requirement. Many Vets specialize in certain areas such as Nutrition, or Radiology, or Genetics, just like regular Doctors. This can entail doing specialized work while in Vet school or completing Masters or Ph.D. programs concurrently or after Vet school. At my time attending and working at U.C. Davis, which has a School of Veterinary Medicine, I knew many Vets who chose to go into research or teaching, instead of practicing medicine. This is true of some Medical Doctors as well. In the United States Veterinarians receive a Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine, which makes them “Doctors”. They then have to pass a State Board of Examination in order to practice in the state of their choice, just like Medical Doctors.

ReplyDeleteJesus, beef jerky.
DeleteYou don't get it Jesus poster. Lay off the word you Moron!
DeleteJesus, a reply.
DeleteOMG are Bigfooters this stupid they need an article that badly defines "doctor?" No wonder Bigfoots aren't proven.
DeleteIn addition to his long hair, beard, sandals, and conspicuious lack of material posessions, there is a lot of evidence to suggest that Jesus was a hippie.
DeleteI hate hippies!
DeleteClaims of families of 5 and mud helmets galore!
DeleteWow Nadia. You're so S.M.A.R.T. The bigfoot world is so fortunate to have someone of your caliber who will grace them with your holy presence.
ReplyDeleteLMAO
That's funny? You have the nerve to challenge a Doctor's intellect when all you do is sit here all day and make dopey, unfunny remarks? I can guarantee you you wouldn't make it 2 months in school trying to be a vet. A good friend of mine is a Vet and getting through school isn't easy, and if she was in it for the money she would be practicing privately, not taking 5 years out of her life to do a fucken bigfoot study.
DeleteNone of my business but I think OP agrees with you. You see, they are ranking on Nadia so......oh, forget it.
DeleteNadia isnt a doctor she has a degree in zoology...which qualifies you for a basic entry-level job of some type. Zoology degrees arent worth much unless pursued to a PHD, a doctorate.
DeletePharmacists, Veterinarians, Radiologists, MDs, DOs, PHDs are all "doctors", its whether or not they practice and train in genetics. Some of the best genetics testing out there comes from folks working towards their doctorate-PHD, but arent yet doctors.
Ketchum is perfectly qualified to be legitimate, but is she? Guess we'll see what happens with the ol' Bigfoot paper to be sure.
Of course Ketchum's a real doctor, this latest Nadia from Narnia stunt is only designed as yet another BE/TT header to cast doubt on something that is sound science but not in tune with their own views. Pathetic attempt in the extreme no matter how much it's disguised as "support".
Delete"PHD" above: What do you think of Kerchums statements, her study? Are you a believer, interested or another lying troll? Just wondering....

DeleteTzieth, you got that right.
DeleteTzieth=asshat.
DeleteYou are a complete jackoff tzieth.. Ya really are
DeleteA little jealous of Dr. Ketchum eh? ;0)
ReplyDeleteWithout a doubt she is.
DeleteShe tries and tries to wiggle into the limelight. She thinks she is SOOOOO important. NOT! Nadia is a suck-up plain and simple
Deletedoes seem like she has issues with ketchum.... but i think nadia is so damn sexy!! wish you would lighten up on the HATE nadia cuz you too damn fine to be so negative..
ReplyDeleteHATE? Spoken like a blinded forestperson. What issues do you see, exactly? If anything, Nadia is defending Ketchum's credentials. Just stfu. YOU are adding to the negative impression of MK with tripe like this.
DeleteA faked defense more like it.
Deleteooooooohh, TRUTH hurts, huh?? yes nadia is a fuckin HATER andi i don't have to explain shit to your stupid ass! but if nadia's hatin ass wanna pop up and respond i'd love to break it down for her....
DeleteOooh...cat fight!

DeleteIM SO SICK N TIRED OF MELBA TOAST KETCHUM NEWS UPDATES! GIVE THIS EFFING STORY A REST FFS!!!
ReplyDeleteWe all are but it's the blog's daily bread and butter, or crow I should say.
DeleteSo Nadja, you are asking a person who's scientific paper on a certain subject has yet to be published (maybe, as far as you know), to put on the internet all data about her schooling and qualifications? Why? So YOU (who are you?) can do WHAT? Decide whether her maybe-to-be-published paper is what? Good science? Whether she has the RIGHT to do that not published paper? To check in advance if her study is competent? Who, again? You? Why?
ReplyDeleteYou're stupid, rude and ridiculous, all at the same time. Bravo.
Please point out the sentence anywhere - ANYWHERE - in that entire article where the author is demanding anything of Dr Kethcum??? In fact, all she is doing is providing the qualification of a veterinarian. The author didn't talk specifics on Ketchum AT ALL.
DeleteAre you all f*cking nuts? Is that a requirement to belonging in the 'community'? It certainly seems that way. OR at the very least the inability to comprehend simple sentence structure. Is there a maximum SAT requirement to weed out people too intelligent, like 600 total on both exams? Seriously... many of you are in dire need of psychological evaluation. I had an encounter but it's downright embarrassing to be associated with the mental midgets on display here.
oh, it must be so embarasing:
Deletehttp://bigfootzoologist.blogspot.com/2012/12/is-melba-ketchum-real-doctor.html
There, in the article Shawn partially reposted and INVITED US TO READ IN FULL, you have it all.
DeleteNow, my coment to you:

DeleteI wouldn't trust anything coming from anyone associated with the Tazer Toons, they're not bigfooters they're Bigfoot destroyers.
DeleteThe Melba's a real doctor, a real blonde, and bigfoot is real.
ReplyDeleteYou might be able to convince the general public that bigfoot is real. But you'll never convince anyone that Ketchum's a real blonde.

ReplyDeleteHi guys I am talking to you from another realm via mindspeak to this blog. It was great to have that woman with me on my death bed, it made the process easier for everyone. If you see my Squatch sister Dana tell her I miss her and I am in a better place. There's all the mindspeak and emf fun you could ever imagine here. Keep it real and a shout out to Chris Noel, the Squatch will soon accept you into their elite circle but remember no photos now!
ReplyDeleteHello fox! Are there blueberry bagels in heaven? Do you have all the horses you could ever wish to braid? I'm so happy you made it to the other side. Quick question: have you ever
DeleteMind raped anyone?
I know there is a thing that minspeaks to type it's called dragon software
DeleteAnd the point of this blog post is...
ReplyDelete$$$$$$$
DeleteIt's not complicated. Texas A M awarded her a doctorate in vetinery medicine., that makes her a doctor. People have to pass state exams in order to practice, but that is a separate issue. The question is, whatever her title , can she conduct publishable research in the field of genetics.
ReplyDeleteYou don't need to be a doctor to know she has human DNA with some contamination.
DeleteBlue berry DNA contaminated by a human....
DeleteSomething keeps mindspeaking to me, telling me to eat more beef jerky.
ReplyDeleteWho do I complain to?
Complaint duly noted. We be having jerky related issues for past two weeks, since Head of Jerky Promotion - Fox - passed away. Will pass info on to your local Daywatcher. Sorry for inconvenience. Best.
DeleteIs Dr. Ketchum a real Vet? Does California have more requirements to become a Vet then Texas? It's sick out there and getting sicker! I'm not surprised, what do you expect from a graduate of UC Davis. Gimme a break!
ReplyDeleteI work in the pharmaceutical industry, and I come across people with veterinary degrees all the time. I personally know an SVP of a major pharma firm whose first degree was veterinary science. I consider them perfectly qualified scientists.
ReplyDeleteCaz
DeleteThanks for that Caz.
Can you get me some Oxy....started to kick. Thanks man....
DeleteNadia brought up some perfectly legitimate questions that beg further explanation from the Ketchum camp. It would not be the first time that a "Dr" or a "scientist" trumped up their credentials in order to blind others to their lack of experience or related education. Nadia is speaking from her own experience of working in a related field and saw some items that seemed out of the norm and she questioned those inconsistancies in a thoughtful and fair way. THIS is what our discussions surrounding Bigfoot research should sound like; measured, fair, and insightful.
ReplyDeleteWhat they shouldn't be is exactly the type of responses that were posted previously.
Screw yourself, Moore's a phony. LOL
DeleteYouve all been hoaxed;)
ReplyDeleteI hope so. That would be more fun than a boring human DNA paper. Humans eat bagels....duh...tell me something I don't know.
DeleteThis is the Bozo The Bigfoot program you don't have to be a real Dr and most if us don't even care!
ReplyDeleteback to that bit o' drama, of which, I am being pulled back into again. One specific woman, Nadia Moore, is doing her level best to re-write this story and my involvement. Albeit, I am sure it is not entirely her fault, but one would think a college education would include a course on how to research or just how to look things up yourself. Guess not.
ReplyDeleteMK
You mad bro?
DeleteNah,just pissed off.
DeleteI HAVE AN IDEA! INSTEAD OF RICK DYER LOOKING INTO SHAWNS REAL NAME WHY DOES HE TRY TO FIND OUT WHO JIM TIMBERGIANTBIGFOOT IS? DOES ANYONE KNOW HIS REAL NAME.COME ON RICKY YOU CAN DO IT.MICHAEL FROM PEARLAND TEXAS!!!!
ReplyDeleteLived in Pearland,is Jalisco Mexican Restaurant still on the corner of O'Day and 518?
DeleteSORRY DONT KNOW I REALLY DO NOT EAT OUT,IVE BEEN TO LILAS ON 35.MICHAEL
DeleteLove when the train goes by and shakes Lilas!
DeleteMelba drinks that special SE Okie tea they give her. As promised, she'll see anything she wants to see.
ReplyDeleteAnd the Ketchum Kult drink their Kool aid from a sippy Kup.

DeleteFirst of all, this post is right but quite frankly not germane to the "Bigfoot" issue. But a medical doctor cannot do research to save his/her life. My dad was a physician, I have a Ph.D. (social science) A vet is an "animal doctor," the stakes are a bit different dealing with humans. Either way, to conduct DNA studies you really should hold at least an M.A. or higher in Genetics? Obviously, with the advanced degree of Ph.D. makes you more credible dependent upon your experience doing sequencing. But thanks for the lesson to many people on here that have no idea what they are talking about. Besides it sounds like she sent it to alot of labs, which is standard in that discipline for repeated measures. The whole "study" sounds like it is completely ridiculous and the scientific community is not conspiring against her. There is obviously something wrong with method, results, validity etc. How do we even know she did the study? Or is even submitting it? She could just be a kook.
ReplyDeleteShut up or I'll slit the tires on your home.
DeleteLol.
DeleteAre you nuts? Oh sorry, you are. Better wait until the paper's out, we'll be going through the whole shebang again then with fakers trying to smear the study and doubts of this and doubts about that part of it even though they know it's all good.
DeleteIf I send something to a journal and it doesn't get published or a revise and resubmit it doesn't mean that it is quality research...trust me I have been accepted in this process and rejected alot. And generally, the entire study I have done needs to be re-worked completely. Thus changing it a great deal.
ReplyDeleteFact is you need a body. I could have tons of coelacanth DNA but it doesn't mean it "exists." That's why they had to catch one off the coast of Madagascar and that folks is what sealed the deal. Sorry, zoology requires that.
This isn't zoology, pal. No body's required only DNA for starters. And frankly, have you not payed any attention lately - if the species is in fact human you really think there'll be a live or dead body? It's called murder then.
DeleteThe world requires that at this point.
ReplyDeleteShutup or I will eat your first-born
DeleteLMAO.
DeleteLaugh all you want you're still stupid, froggy. Sorry if I refer you to Kermit.
DeleteYou want some fries with that toona?
ReplyDeleteOut of 50 million sperm, I can't believe you were the fastest.
DeleteFirst.
DeleteWith all this nonsense about the study we are losing site of what footery is all about: finding ways to help the victims of mind rape recover they psyches from the maniacal clutches of the Sasquatch herd. They need our help. The psychological toll is becoming too high.
ReplyDeleteToona + melba toast
ReplyDeleteDove into the shallow end of the gene pool, did you?
DeleteGene pools and swimming pools are incomparable.
DeleteLet us see. What grade or degree did Thomas Edison achieve to enable him to acquire over 1000 patents in his name?. He went to school for three months. He was home taught by his mother. Abraham Lincoln only had a rudimentary education, yet became arguably the best president this country has ever had. Bill Gates dropped out of college and what did he achieve?
ReplyDeleteGet my point. It is not what you earn in school that counts, it is how you apply yourself. And she does have a doctorate.
The Melba hating and bashing continues even though only a handful of people have knowledge of what is in the study. What a sorry lot.

You grew up around a lot of lead paint, didn't you?
DeleteSo what if I did. Ya know it isn't how much lead paint you eat, it's how you apply yourself. Albert Eisenstein used to eat paint chips incessantly as a child and he went on to invent the refrigerator. And the Wright brothers were both partial to lead sinkers and they invented shoe laces. And Pocahontas ate paint with every meal and she became the first woman on the moon. Just because I don't have any education whatsoever and the doctors say that I only have nine percent of my brain left doesn't mean I'm not smart.
DeleteChuck
Don't forget the greatest inventor of all time: the nameless baker who first created the blueberry bagel. Without his efforts, the squatch would still be unknown to us today.
Delete@ 08:13 You're more fucked up than a soup sandwich.
Delete^^^^
DeleteFell into a life of gay prostitution after having his first homosexual experience in a garbage can. Known around town as five dollar Phil.
@ 8:23 If you think a piece of paper has anything to do with intelligence you must live in a very small world. A degree is just a certification that you were able to pass a set of test that show that you are able to regurgitate memorized information.
Delete
DeleteMmm...soup sandwich one of my all time favorites.
Ah Ha! Just as I thought. A bum who dropped out of high school is writing to us from a computer in a public library. This happens much more often then you might expect. I suppose we will hear all the usual blabbering about how an education means nothing and how people without any education can be happy and successful. Well I got news for you five dollar Phil; the people who were successful without any education lived back in the day when education wasn't important. Now days uneducated people are only qualified to perform the most mundane of menial labor. Also I would like to point out that if you're so happy being a bum why are you on this website trying to tear down the educated? Sounds like a case of the sour grapes to me.
Delete8:46 I can guarantee that I my income exceeds your's by a large margin. I've worked with many PhDs and MBAs, some were very smart and some were as dumb as a sack of rocks. I've done more with my life that most would be able to do in ten lifetimes. So, suck on it bitch!
Delete08:57 I'm sure whatever is wrong with you has a long, Latin sounding name.
DeleteWow get some new material people another day another dollar for Shawn. All I hear is people trying to refute people's education backround or pay scale the only people I ever here calling people nobodies or anything else is always the guy not making money or the guy with no education. This can be easily shown at least for me I'm educated so I assume at least till I hear something so retarded that others are just as educated
DeleteJust as well someone with no education assumes every other person is just as incomprehensible of the information as they are then comes the poop slinging jokes when they see the errors in their ways
DeleteDidn't Edison and Lincoln come from a time when education was only for the rich, the top social classes? Wasn't Lincoln a law student? I would agree that intelligence is not something that you have to get a degree to prove you have it. There are many different types of intelligence, I know people with degrees in Math who know nothing about anything else like history, literature, plumbing, mechanics, computing, medicine, electronics or how to make an egg sandwich. They aren't dumb just smart in that one field, most people have the thing they're really good at and follow it that might be a trade or molecular physics! I think when you are dealing in genetics tho it's a different ball game and maybe if you want to be taken seriously it's something you shouldn't pursue as a second career after thought.
DeleteThe average 'foot has very little in the way of formal education, but his mental faculties dwarf anything the puny human mind is capable of. Just ask someone who's been mind raped by a squatch. They'll tell you.
DeletePeople like anon 8:57 who talk about their supposedly large income always turn out to be lying on how much they make and 9/10 times they are unemployed or broke. Your a worthless piece of scum you arrogant lying piece of crap anon 8:57. I can guarantee your unemployed. Why ? Because your posting during the workday ! Get a job loser!
DeleteLike you?
DeleteHow is it you geniuses are so smart you don't realize a lot of people do their work on computers or have a smartphone why don't you think everyone else asks why they are here dipshits
DeleteLincoln never went to law school. He was an apprentice, and that was the only education he received.
DeleteWell, she's a real doctor in the sense that she doctored her results.
ReplyDeleteNo she actually thinks she has 'foot DNA when infact it's just contaminated human DNA.
DeleteQuit trying to excuse a hoaxer you dick.
Delete
DeleteDamn!, are you one of the reviewers or the editor of the journal the paper has been submitted to, I know you have to preserve confidentiality but you have let the cat out of the bag now so post a link to the paper or part of the paper where we can see the doctoring you have discovered, I knew there would be a leak sooner or later, come on you know you want to.
In your dreams, buddy. It's been tested over and over in many high class labs, in fact your ass is toast with this coming news.
DeleteIts so simple if the mtdna is 100% human... then you've got a human.
Delete
DeleteExcellent work !, so you have told us the mother was human, what can you tell us about the father ?
The baby daddy? Oh, he hangs out on the street corner, with all the other deadbeat Bigfoot dads, selling meth.
Delete
DeleteAnd that's in the dna is it ?
They must have figured out the secrets of DNA please share your knowledge so we can cure diasease and drug addiction and stop people from being so retarded they make posts like you. That's right you didn't figure out shit now go back in the corner with your dunce hat you dumb mother fucker
DeleteAnother member of Team Tazer publicly casts aside their dignity. Completely embarrassing. Tomorrow we'll have Phil breaking down the fake Ketchum 'in the lab' photo....
ReplyDeleteThey're disgraceful by now that's the only way to put it, or fakes at worst, you have to wonder about their motives anyway.
DeleteDid someone say Barock Hussein Obama's school transcripts?
ReplyDeleteJust asking.
Excellent job Nadia. Ignore then Trolls, they are idiots.
ReplyDeleteI would give Nadia Moore some of my DNA on her face.
