Malay DNA & Cast in Play
DNA samples, theories on the creatures living in the swamps, future appearances on reality television are all in the news. Do not look for the Malaysian Bigfoot story to bolt from the media radar soon. Furthermore, we continue to ponder what to make of this track, cast by Sci-Fi’s Josh Gates? The footprint site is more visible in this new photograph (above) of the Malaysian Bigfoot cast still in the ground. This is the footcast that will be tested for DNA. Compare it to the following images of the other side of the cast and various comparative rhino and Orang [...]
Talking to Henry May
Today, I’m going to cross-post my interview by Henry May, who has a blog at the American Bigfoot Society Clearinghouse. Loren Coleman and the 8.5 ft tall "Crookston Bigfoot" at his International Cryptozoology Museum, Portland, Maine, summer 2005. Photo taken by Joseph Citro, used by permission. Hi, Henry Thank you for your growing site and your interest in chatting today. > 1. Do you believe the Malaysian Bigfoot is merely an orangtuan? First, I must say what I often say to the folks from the media: "Belief" is part of religion and faith. Therefore, when I am asked any [...]
Are There Three Kinds of Malaysian Bigfoot?
The story of the "Bigfoot" in the Endau-Rompin National Park, Malaysia, is becoming more complex. It seems like the time is ripe to sort out the media’s reports that the locals are seeing three types of hairy hominoids. According to the Bernama news service, on February 20, 2006, accounts surfaced that the locals, the Orang Asli, living along the Johor-Pahang border, claimed they have seen a variety of different-sized "Bigfoot" in the area. Illustration: Typical True Giant, drawing by Harry Trumbore, from Anomalist Books’ new edition of The Field Guide to Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates by Loren Coleman and [...]
“Flying Dinosaurs”
Two new publications have appeared on the little-discussed subject of what is popularly referred to as "flying dinosaurs." These two works, however, are at separate ends of the cryptozoology continuum. One is a non-fiction review of the sightings over North America of pterodactyl-like creatures, and the other is a comic graphic novel. Intriguingly, their promotional imagery is reminiscent of each other. In Volume 10, Number 2 of the journal Wonders, cryptozoologist and the journal’s editor Mark A. Hall tackles living dinosaurs, first in an article about ones that soar. The flying variety over his home continent are detailed. Also Hall [...]
The Ray Wallace Debate – Part III
Okay, today, less words and more photographs, per your requests. Some facts: Ray Wallace produced fake imprints of Bigfoot tracks that generally followed a routine pattern. These items were revealed by various relatives after Wallace died in 2002. The following are two sets of the ones most often photographed. Both photographs © 2002 Dave Rubert. Used with permission. Facts: The Ray Wallace fakes do NOT match the Jerry Crew October 1958 foot cast that began the use of the word “Bigfoot” in a more widespread fashion, nor do they match the Bluff Creek filmsite prints from 1967, one of which [...]
