ABC News talked to me, Ben Radford, and Jeff Meldrum today. CNN News got Tom Nelson, chairman of the biology department at North Georgia College and State University in Dahlonega, to say he’s “pretty skeptical” the world will feast its eyes on a new species Friday. “That would certainly rock mammalogy,” joked Nelson, who specializes in the study of mammals. “I see a research grant in my future.” Over sixty news representatives will show up at the news conference in California tomorrow. But you know from read forums and blogs, this story is crumbling already. I can truly report the [...]
Rare Snake News from Vietnam
Photo: Vncreatures Scientists have uncovered a rare snake species named “Fimbrios” at Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park in the central province of Quang Binh, Vietnam. According to the park’s management board, scientists from the Cologne Zoo (Germany), the French National Natural History Museum and the Vietnam Institute for Ecology and Fauna Resources joined forces to locate this rare species of snake in an evergreen forest on a limestone mountain in Phong Nha-Ke Bang. The Department of Science and Technology of Quang Binh on July 25 announced that in the five years since Phong Nha-Ke Bang was recognised as a world [...]
Bigfoot Body Video
I’m finally back on. The amount of traffic overwhelmed this site. Besides the link to the photographs from Coast to Coast AM’s page two nights ago, old friends such as The Anomalist and Boing Boing uplinked to Cryptomundo early on. At one point, rather than the usual under hundred blogs mentioning us in the morning, on August 13th, I noticed 3445 individual blogs were linking into Cryptomundo. It was as if 30 million people at once was trying to fit through a door that about 2 million usually go through. Such are the ways of the web, I guess, and [...]
Georgia Gorilla, Skeptically Yours
Well, wow, that was a wild ride, wasn’t it? And it feels like the roller coaster is just in the bottom of the dip, ready to rocket upward a bit again. Of course, we all will see this unfold or unravel some more on Fox TV News at 10:45 am/7:45 am this Wednesday morning, August 13, 2008. And then on Friday, if it gets that far. I will continue to update Cryptomundo with new postings or any visuals obtained. It is 8:13 am in the East, and Fox News has just made a teaser announcement about the Friday news conference [...]
Georgia Gorilla: Bigfoot Body’s First Photo!
In a news conference on Friday, August 15th, to be held in California, the DNA results of a probable new species of primate, call it “Bigfoot,” “Georgia Bigfoot,” or “Georgia Gorilla,” if you wish, will be announced. You have read the press release already. Also a photograph of the body was to be released, but a mistaken uploading and premature release of the photograph tonight on the Searching for Bigfoot, Inc. website has rushed that timetable. I, Loren Coleman, author of The Field Guide to Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates and Bigfoot! The True Story of Apes in America, was [...]

It is now in the hands of the media at large, and they will be going with this story. The embargo on the news is lifted. Therefore, here it is for Cryptomundo readers. Those with a brain understand why I went on the record, briefly with this statement: “I feel, in all honesty, this, indeed, may be the real deal, and I say this [...]
Cuero Chupacabras Caught on Dashcam
New footage of a running “Chupacabras” – i.e., in this case, a mystery canid – has been caught on a dashboard camera by the DeWitt County, Texas, sheriff’s department. This occurred near Cuero, Texas, the new “capital” of Chupacabras activity since the “mystery canid” body was found there. Contributed Photo: Phylis Canion The DNA results for Phylis Canion’s find have not been accepted kindly by the local residents. Here is a silent YouTube version from the local television station KENS 5. The link to the tape, with audio, playing on CNN.com today is here. There is also a new documentary [...]
First Photo of Bigfoot Body Leaked
The Minnesota Iceman carcass (above) vanished, due in part to information on it being published too prematurely. Is history going to repeat itself because the details about the Georgia Bigfoot body are being leaked to the world, informally? Despite the recent calm regarding the Georgia Bigfoot body story, more details appear to have just been released today, in bits and pieces, about the body, straight from the Georgia gentlemen, Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer. For the benefit of keeping you all alerted to the latest, here is an update of these leaks. First up, the new video: According to the [...]
Cryptozoology on MSN
I guess it has been there all day, but someone just told me about it. If you go to the MSN Homepage for today, and look over to the left hand side, scroll down a bit, you will find a photo of me in front of my Bigfoot. Click on that picture, and it goes to a new video at History’s “MonsterQuest” site in which I am talking about cryptozoology. The b-roll shows various objects in the museum. (Hey, if someone places this MSN video on YouTube, I’ll post it here. Right now, Cryptomundo does not have the technology to [...]
The Windigo and The Beheading
Windigo can be the hairy hominoid, the cannibal giant, and the psychosis. The three are merging and swirling around in the recent story of the decapitation and eating of flesh on the Canadian Greyhound bus. The Windigo (also known as the Wendigo, Windago, Windiga, Witiko, Wihtikow, and numerous other variants) is an unknown hairy hominoid tied to the legends and folklore of First Nations people linked by the Algonquin languages. The Windigo is a bipedal hairy creature, equal to the Eastern Bigfoot, Stone Giant, or Marked Hominid in some classification systems, which is often said to have aggressive behaviors and [...]
