I had an excellent time on The Coast to Coast AM radio program (gulp, from 2 am to 5 am my time!) last night. George Noory and I shared high energy, great fun, and we moved through several topics you’ve been reading about here at Cryptomundo (e.g. Malaysian Mawas, Mt. Hood Bigfoot, Argentina Lake Monster, Thunderbird, Mothman, and Lizardmen). The crypto-cat fight was even briefly mentioned. In the last hour, we also had wonderful callers. A recap of the program and link to the audio in their archives can be found here. The first caller was a remarkable one. The [...]
Pete Loh’s Latest
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 [...]
Exact Description of Mawas
Talking To Vincent Chow on the Appearance of the Johor Bigfoot From the private collection of photographs that Vincent Chow has been shown, he has now described, in some detail, how he says the Malaysian Mawas or Johor Bigfoot appear to him. The following is a collection of the various statements from Chow of their descriptions. While we all can debate the reality of the photographs, what and when they will look like when and if they are released, the drawings and descriptions can be accessed and analyzed, just as we do with eyewitness details, in our feeble human attempt [...]
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

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 [...]
From Russia, With Love
Message from Russian Hominologists to Malaysian Colleagues Dear Vincent Chow, May I warmly congratulate you and your Malaysian colleagues on a marvelous, most important and long expected achievement — getting clear photographs of what we call homins (our technical,”professional” jargon term for relict hominids). Back in 1963, my teacher of hominology, the late Professor Boris Porshnev, proposed and urged the use of photography as a means of solution of the relict hominid problem. I followed his advice and argued for this method in the book To Kill or To Film? The Problem of Proof, 2000, against those who insist on [...]
