First Bigfoot, Now A Wombat!
Did someone in New Zealand get wind of the “Molester Blames Bigfoot” story of last week, and decide to float the following about? Humm, I guess I could have posted this on my “copycat effect” blog. But it seems more likely that it is another one for the “humans-are-weird-animals” file. BTW, there are three kinds of wombats: The common wombat (Vombatus ursinus), also known as the naked nosed wombat or the forest wombat; the southern hairy-nosed wombat (Lasiorhinus latifrons); and the critically endangered northern hairy-nosed wombat (Lasiorhinus krefftii). The kind of wombat in this story was not defined. I share [...]
Strike the Sasquatch
A mascot inhabiting the Baseball Cryptozoo, with an identity from cryptozoology and hominology, gets a new name. The Northwest Arkansas Naturals announced earlier this month that the name of their furry, baseball-loving Sasquatch will hereby be known as “Strike.” Several hundred entries were submitted in the team’s “Name the Mascot” contest in January 2008. After the contest was completed, Naturals’ staff members selected from the top-five most frequent names submitted along with five other “wild-card” entries. Tanner Winn, from Happy Hollow Elementary School in Fayetteville, Arkansas, was the lone child who submitted the name Strike. Seven-year old Tanner will receive [...]
Molester Blames Bigfoot
In one famous case, a man who said he was hunting Bigfoot killed a park ranger. Some individuals have died of exposure in wild locations while looking for Bigfoot, and a few have shot up livestock or people, telling authorities they thought they were aiming at Bigfoot. Humans will be humans. But when they use Bigfoot to justify their acts, to me, it goes beyond the limits of my tolerance. Now comes this awful story out of Virginia of a man convicted of molesting children, who says he did it and attributes his start to Bigfoot. I may be open-minded [...]
Michael Corbin Has Died
Michael Corbin, radio talk show host who formerly ran Paranet Information Services, died suddenly of a massive stroke at the age of 52, on March 18, 2008. Five years ago, Corbin’s radio studio was firebombed prompting a Denver police investigation with inconclusive results. Over the years, especially before 9/11, Corbin interviewed cryptozoology-involved guests. For example, on February 9, 1997, his guest was Robert Pyle, author of Where Bigfoot Walks: Crossing the Dark Divide. Corbin interviewed numerous Forteans, Bigfooters, and others in his early radio days, such as Tracy Torme (4/24/94), Tom Adams (5/15/94), Jerry Clark (6/12/94 & 12/21/97), Stan Gordon [...]

Outing the Ozark Howler
Ten years later, the “Ozark Howler” still haunts the world of cryptozoology, and everyone from adventurous artists to Wikipedia writers continue to get it wrong. Here we go again. A new example has popped up in the modern blogsphere. Artist Robyn Fabsits of Kansas City, Missouri, shares her vision of what two “cryptids” supposedly look like in her new blog entry entitled “Cryptozoology.” She describes her two items this way: The blue guy is Momo or the Missouri monster and the orange guy is the “Ozark Howler.” I’ll tell you more about their stories later. The artist does not tell [...]
