Dicerorhinus sumatrensis harrissoni Earlier on Cryptomundo, Craig Woolheater uploaded the video footage of the Borneo rhinoceros, here. Now the media is taking video captures from the footage and publishing them. Some who are not reading too carefully will think there is “new” news of the filming of a Borneo Rhino, but this is merely the continued cycling of an updated Reuters dispatch about the recent announcements from April. For example, The Daily Times of Pakistan for May 7, 2007, is reporting that the two-horned Borneo rhinoceros (Dicerorhinus sumatrensis harrissoni), a subspecies of the Sumatran rhino, has been filmed (see video [...]
Old Sea Serpent Sighting
A Monster in the Sound The Portchester Journal assumes the responsibility for this story: “Last Friday [August 10, 1877], while a gentleman and lady were sailing on the Sound, between Byram shore and Captain’s Island light, their attention was attracted by a queer hissing noise, and a roaring sound, and they soon discovered, not an eighth of a mile distant, a monster of the deep advancing rapidly. This monster stood up straight, was apparently as large round as a hogshead, and showed an enormous head and exhibited not less than fifteen or twenty feet of his length. Her advanced a [...]

The Heart of Darkness: Vanishings, Pygmy Elephants, and Mokele-Mbembe
Mokele-mbembe being killed by Pygmies; drawn by Bill Rebsamen and used with permission. As I write these words, there is news that an airliner from Kenya has crashed in the jungles of Cameroon. They can’t find the plane. They can’t find any survivors because they can’t find the plane. It has disappeared, perhaps near some small village some distance from Douala, which is a coastal hopping off spot into the jungle. Mokele-mbembe courtesy of Bill Rebsamen.

Hardwood Lake Snake
The Latest Serpent Story A very pronounced fish story comes from Barry county, Michigan, where, we are “told,” a monster resembling a snake is residing in Harwood Lake. It is represented as being about twenty feet long, and from five to seven inches in diameter. It has been seen a number of times – once, last summer, by a Swede, who supposed it to be the devil. The other day his snakeship was seen again by a boy, who was fishing at the time, and had quite a string of fish lying on the bank. The boy says the snake [...]
Maine’s “Fossilized Bigfoot Tracks”
These are images of Mainer Tom Martin’s “fossilized Bigfoot tracks” as noted in the blog, “Ah, Bigfoot and ME”. See that posting for more details.
Ah, Bigfoot & ME
Photograph by Joseph Citro. The abbreviation for the State of Maine is “ME.” As fate would have it, Lewiston Sun Journal reporter Kathryn Skelton has a feature article about Maine and Bigfoot today, entitled creatively, “Bigfoot & ME.” It happens to have a large photo of me at the top of one section of the story. Here’s an excerpt of some of what Skelton writes about in this Saturday’s news article. It contains various things that have only a little to do with the critical examination of Bigfoot sightings in Maine. Some words are not even worth repeating, so here’s [...]
New Mexico’s Bighoot
Ornimegalonyx oteroi Bighoot, the Flying Head by Mike Smith In the piney mountains and desert mesas of southcentral New Mexico, citizens of the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation still tell legends of an enormous and evil bird: Big Owl. The Jicarilla Apaches, along the state’s northern edge, also talk of Big Owl-near slickrock canyons and beneath the gray bluffs of their reservation-but in their stories Big Owl will often paralyze humans just by staring at them, and after doing so swallows them whole, just as smaller owls swallow mice. Mark A. Hall, noted cryptozoologist and author of Thunderbirds: America’s Living Legends [...]
Another Update: Tennessee Bigfoot With Cane?
Bill Appleton, Chief Technology Officer at California’s DreamFactory Software, Inc., shares with me these specific video captures from the Tennessee Bigfoot helicopter footage (earlier posted on Cryptomundo by Craig Woolheater here and here). These two individual photographic captures from the video appear to show the bipedal walker carrying something in its right hand. Appleton asks if this is might merely be an elderly woman moving rapidly away from the aircraft, with the help of a cane? Others have suggested, could it be a hunter in a ghillie (camouflage netting) suit? Could it be someone with a heavy coat? Well, at [...]
Loch Ness Toad
Look what Robert Rines-linked investigations have turned up recently at the bottom of Loch Ness. A common toad. Why was it down there? What was it doing? What else is down there?
