On May 19, 2008, a press release entitled “Official Statement – Demise of the American Bigfoot Society” was issued. Here it is: It is with sadness in my heart that I announce the closing of the doors of the American Bigfoot Society. Today, I received a communication from ABS Chairman Sean Forker [above] that the decision was made to cease operations of the organization effective immediately.

Skoka’s Yeti Gets UK Greenlight
While we’ve seen other models of Yeti, it appears Skoda has settled on one for the United Kingdom. Can America be far behind? Will Yetis haunt the streets of the USA soon? Will any of us be able to afford gasoline by the time they appear? Well, if smaller is better, then the littlest Yeti may be the answer. Shall we begin to call it “Teh-lma,” after the Sherpa word for “small Yeti”? Skoda’s junior 4×4, the Yeti, is going to make production, Autocar has learned. The Czech car-maker will develop the new small 4×4, due on sale in mid-2009, [...]

Current Crazy Croc Encounter
Chad Arment has passed along updates on a 2 to 3 ft long crocodilian being sighted and photographed in Hickory Lake, North Carolina. Seen for a week now (since Mother’s Day, May 11, 2008), it remains uncaught. Eyewitnesses thought it was an alligator, but official speculation, at first, said it was a caiman. N.C. Department of Wildlife Agent Michael Juhan was quoted by the media saying as much. “It may have been a caiman, which is not unusual for people to have as an exotic pet before releasing it into the wild,” Juhan said. While caimans are not native to [...]

New Jellyfish Species Discovered In Aquarium
An encounter between a large jellyfish and a human diver off the coast of New Zealand makes for an interesting souvenir. But one woman with a gift for discoveries only had to go as far as her neighborhood aquarium to find a new species of jellyfish.

It looks like snot, it’s the size of a grain of rice, and it’s taking the marine science world by storm. Dr. Lisa Gershwin says the tiny creature, which has yet to be named, was found in a [...]
