Pete Loh in Singapore writes that the first sketch he attempted, according to Vincent Chow, has the hair a bit wrong. Chow says the hair on the shoulders is much longer and hanging. Loh just sent this third sketch incorporating the second sketch’s facial features and the longer shoulder hair. Have a look. Here’s the first and second drawings of what Chow is saying he’s seeing in the photos. This is not an exact science, but would like to let this unfold in front of you all so you can share, from the inside, as this develops. Of course, like [...]
The Abominable Snowman: The Movie
Click image for a larger version In a new May 11, 2006, interview in Australia’s Moviehole, super producer Ilya Salkind notes that among his current projects is "a new film based on the mythic The Abominable Snowman." This is important to hear as it gives fresh news, the first since 2003, that The Abominable Snowman is still going to be made. In a press release on April 28, 2003, Emmett/Furla Films and Ilya Salkind (Superman) announced that they have joined forces to develop and produce a feature film entitled The Abominable Snowman. Gale Anne Hurd (The Hulk) was also in [...]
Are Eastern Bigfoot Aggressive?
I was talking to Roger Knights today, about the August 13, 1965 story of Monroe, Michigan, when Christine van Acker and her mother Mrs. Ruth Owens, had an encounter with a black 7-feet tall Bigfoot. The Bigfoot reached inside their car, giving Christine a black eye. Knights reminded me that it might not have been an “unprovoked assault” from the Bigfoot’s point of view, because their car had “brushed past” the Bigfoot before coming to a stop. Maybe I have been blaming the eastern Bigfoot for being too aggressive? Maybe not? Talking about this case certainly reminded me of other [...]
Crypto-Cat-Fight Goes International
The New Straits Times has decided to step into the middle of the American crypto-cat-fight over the Malaysian melodrama. Here’s what they are saying… ——————————————————————————– The New Straits Times Identification key to protecting Johor Bigfoot 10 May 2006 By R. Sittamparam JOHOR BARU: Until researchers have determined the species and family of the Johor Bigfoot, its only completely safe haven is Johor. The Wildlife Department says scientific identification is a prerequisite for declaring it a totally protected species. The State Government has announced total protection for Bigfoot. This means it is forbidden to injure, capture, kill or transport the animal [...]
Crypto-Cat-Fight Continues
Oh no, Matt Moneymaker. Watch out! Here comes Daniel Perez and a possible future treatment in The Bigfootimes. Perez is telegraphing to the world that he’s interested in gathering stories that people have been telling online and privately for years about Moneymaker. As Perez posted on a public forum yesterday: "The more I hear about Moneymaker’s activities, the more I think he should be exposed for what he is." As far as a quick update on our May 7th posting, entitled "BFRO Declares War on Cryptomundo," Cryptomundo informants discovered soon afterwards that some rapid editing occurred at the BFRO. Aware [...]
Unidentified Hominids of the African Forest Author Dies
Jacqueline Roumeguere-Eberhardt, 78, died on March 29, 2006, in Nairobi, Kenya
Pizzly, Grolar, or Polargrizz
Late in April 2006, American hunter Jim Martell, shown here with his prize trophy, went to Canada’s far north, paying $58,570 to hunt polar bears. Now it turns out, he may have killed the first grizzly-polar bear cross ever found in the wild. The two species mate at different times of the year and inhabit vastly different regions, hence cross-breeding is a rarity. The animal he killed is being described by local Alaskan-Canadian media as a “pizzly,” a “grolar bear” or a “polargrizz.” Media reports described it as “looking” like an animal that could be the byproduct of a grizzly [...]
Hairy Hominoids Killed and Captured
The events in Malaysia are only the latest in a long history in Asia of interactions between humans and unknown hairy hominoids. Often, especially in times of war, the encounters have not been peaceful ones for the “Wild People.” Sometimes these incidents have been covered up for years, due to the military involvements, from regional fighting to the stories we are only recently hearing from the Vietnam War era. Will the future hold more such memoirs from fighting in Afghanistan? In the meantime, in The Field Guide to Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates, there are vivid historical examples given in [...]
Update: Mt. Hood Bigfoot?
This is the image of the unknown animate object, perhaps a Bigfoot (?), taken by a remote camera on April 30, 2006, near Mt. Hood, Oregon. Click image for full-size version The following is more information shared by the photographers, Klindt & Dianna: The answer is yes we did set up the camera to capture a picture of Bigfoot. On the 29th [of April] the wind blew pine limbs that we had placed around the edge of the camera to mask our smell and hide the camera. We went up on the 30th [of April] and brought back the picture [...]
Pondering the Mawas Situation
With the death of Dr. Bernard Heuvelmans, 84, one of the fathers of Cryptozoology, on August 22, 2001, we lost more than a cryptozoologist. Indeed, a philosopher departed the scene. I have often wondered what he would say to all the interest and modern internet talk about the Malaysian Mawas and/or Bigfoot situation. As I look at his lover Alika Lindbergh’s paintings of Heuvelmans, the single quotation that keeps coming to my mind, from my sensitive friend and fellow thinker, is this one: Cryptozoological research should be actuated by two major forces: patience and passion. – Dr. Bernard Heuvelmans, Cryptozoology, [...]
