You won’t see too much from me here any longer on the alleged Bigfoot body from the Georgia gentlemen, until an actual body is produced. Following their burning of my Bigfoot! book (after it previously was apparently being used as a reference work), it became obvious it was counter-productive to report on them. But for the sake of keeping you informed, here are various so-called developments in their ongoing melodrama. They have removed from the internet all of their previous videos, and are floating a recent one around that gives these two “facts”: ~ bigfttrkrs are now associated with Tom [...]

Mystery Cat Video
Just in case the notice got lost in the post-blackout entries, please click here to find the video of the University of Maryland felid. It looks like neither like a savannah cat nor a cougar to me. The following is a freeze frame from the video. Quality is poor. I have not seen a YouTube of this UMD video yet.
World’s Tiniest Lizard
I mentioned here on Sunday night the discovery of the world’s smallest snake. The discoverer is Blair Hedges, Ph. D., of Penn State. Boing boing’s David Pescovitz points out that: “Evolutionary biologist Blair Hedges has great luck with tiny herps. In 2001, he co-discovered the world’s smallest lizard on an island off the coast of the Dominican Republic.” Sphaerodactylus ariasae Hedges and Richard Thomas, a biologist at the University of Puerto Rico, discovered small groups of the new lizard species living in a sink hole and a cave in a partially destroyed forest on the remote island of Beata, which [...]
Montauk Monster Überschwemmte Cryptomundo
Click image for larger version. There can be little doubt that the Montauk Monster is a media phenomenon this summer, and is even outstripping Obama, Morgan Freeman and Heath Ledger in gaining widespread short term attention. It überschwemmte (swamped, deluged) Cryptomundo and about every other site too. While people like Gawker threw around casually the words “demon beast” or “monster,” as the first report surfaced, when I posted early on Tuesday, July 29th, and labeled this thing the “Montauk Monster,” magic happened. It reminds me of how, on a whim, I called the Massachusetts creature seen in April 1977, the [...]
New Mystery Cat Photos Questioned
Is there another unknown felid being seen on the University of Maryland campus? Should we question the quick identification being given to this cat? C & C Savannahs shows off one of its prize examples of the breed. Carol Streit/Callie Ingram Photo. According to the Sunday Washington Post article entitled, “Authorities Take Photos Of Elusive Large Cat” by Martin Weil and Clarence Williams, the phantom feline has been identified. But I wonder if the identification is wrong? Authorities at the College Park campus were able to obtain photographs of an unidentified feline that, while not quite a cougar, they said, [...]
Not Bigfoot vs the IRS
When weird meets the IRS By Kathryn Skelton , Staff Writer Saturday, August 2, 2008 Loren Coleman wants to make it clear: This isn’t Bigfoot versus the Internal Revenue Service. Sure, Coleman, the author of books on [Bigfoot, cryptozoology,] Mothman and a field guide to lake monsters and sea serpents [& another field guide on Bigfoot], has spent the last year as the subject of an IRS audit. He first had to convince the federal government there is such a thing as cryptozoology; and that, yes, it’s possible to dedicate a museum to mostly yet-to-be-found creatures. But he’s trying to [...]
Crookston Wolf Man?
You all remember the so-called “Crookston Bigfoot” that is now part of my museum. In 1990, Wisconsin taxidermist and artist Curtis Christensen created the “world’s most unique Bigfoot in existence,” above, and kept it to himself in his barn for a few years. In June 1995, Crookston, Minnesota, based on a series of local sightings, declared itself the “Bigfoot Capital of the World.” Badger State taxidermist Christensen heard about their claim, and contacted the executive director of the Crookston Development Authority. “Would Crookston like to obtain my Bigfoot to go with your new worldwide fame?”, he asked them. The “Crookston [...]
LaCrosse Lizardman
Then there’s… …the mid-90s encounter another man and his son had by the riverbank in LaCrosse, Wisconsin, while hunting for a lost dog. They saw what they described as a “Lizardman,” covered in brownish scales and very reptilian-looking. ~ Linda Godfrey
Pennsylvania’s Breaking Bigfoot Sightings
The recent rumors of a white Bigfoot in Carbondale, Pennsylvania, are spotlighted in this video news report. The “White Bigfoot” being seen near Carbondale, Pennsylvania, may be related to this, “Strange Hominid Sighting Reported Near Red Lion, York County, Pennsylvania,” for July 18, detailed on July 30th, here. Carbondale is 171 miles away, mostly north on I-81, from Red Lion in York County, Pennsylvania. It would seem they hardly are related. But stranger links have been made, of course. The account begins… “I received a telephone call today from a woman who claims to have seen a small Bigfoot-like creature [...]
Earth’s Smallest Snake Discovered on Barbados
Images of the snake show it is small enough to curl up on a US quarter. I was thrilled when I turned over that rock and found it. After finding the first one, we turned hundreds of other stones to find another one. Biologist Blair Hedges The world’s smallest snake, averaging merely 4 inches (10 cm) and as thin as a spaghetti noodle, has been discovered on the Caribbean island of Barbados. The snake, found beneath a rock in a tiny fragment of threatened forest, is thought to be at the very limit of how small a snake can evolve [...]
