Here’s an April report of a monster being caught under ice: The St. Albans [Vermont] Messenger reports a story coming from Shelburne, Vt. A resident of the latter place while out on the ice in the vicinity of the Four Brothers, and near the New York side of the lake, found the remains of a monster creature frozen in the ice. The account says: “With the aid of his companion, he scraped away the crust from the surface of the ice for a distance of 20 feet and revealed a portion of the remains of what he thought must be [...]
Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot Footage: CZ’s Zapruder Film
The footage is to the Bigfoot branch (hominology) of cryptozoology what the Zapruder film is to the JFK assassination.Mysterious America Without a doubt the world’s most famous Bigfoot movie…The Field Guide to Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates Thousands of miles of footprints. Hundreds of years of traditions. Scores and scores of close, first hand encounters. Then in 1967 the next piece of the puzzle fell into place– an actual filmed representation of what scared individuals had reported seeing . And it occurred before the era of video and digital cameras, and before the existence of consumer photo manipulation software like [...]
1977: Year Of The Creature
After I posted this morning’s blog “Flashback: Thirty Year Ago – South Dakota Bigfoot,”” about a Bigfoot flap taking place in 1977, Scott Maruna at The Anomalist commented: “Come to think of it, there were a lot of flaps going on that year.” Indeed, there were. The anniversary of the Dover Demon sightings (April 21-22, 1977) is rapidly approaching. On April 21, 2007, I’ll be a guest on the “Dover Demon” 30th Anniversary Special (“Dover Demon” is a chapter in Mysterious America), from 10 pm to Midnight, on the Eastern Spooky Southeast broadcast, on WBSM-AM, 1420 AM, New Bedford, Massachusetts.

Oglala Sioux Police Talk: Bigfoot Update
The Oglala Sioux Pine Ridge Reservation was the site last year and at the beginning of this one of several close encounters with what appeared to be a large Bigfoot (often called “Big Man”). Various individuals have contacted me, via backchannels, from the southern South Dakota area, with news of their Bigfoot. All wish to keep their identities guarded, due to their various positions within the community and their links to the law enforcement units operating there. Nevertheless, the time seems appropriate to share the new notes that are being sent, as they appear to have overlapping tidbits of confriming [...]
Laverty on Bigfoot Claims of Heironimous
Here’s additional information Roger Knights obtained from Lyle Laverty: Bob Heironimus’s Fake-Track Claim is Discredited by Filmsite Witness Lyle Laverty In June 2005 [Roger Knights] wrote: “It would have been irrational for Patterson to have made the footprints over a week in advance [as Bob Heironimus (BH) claimed], risking their discovery in the interim.” – Knights’ Amazon review of Long’s book I’ve now obtained a statement from a credible witness—who was accompanied by other witnesses—that no such tracks existed at the site the day before the filming. Here are the background and details: BH claimed Patterson & Gimlin faked the [...]
Fed Nominee Has Bigfoot Links
Midtarsal Break, Photo Credit: Lyle Laverty, 1967. You’ve seen the photograph. It is one of the more famous single Bigfoot tracks, a print with a distinctive midtarsal break, as Jeff Meldrum terms it. A simple “photo by Lyle Laverty” is usually placed casually underneath it, acknowledging the credit line of this semi-public official who snapped the picture. Now, Laverty is in the news again, as an up-and-coming Bush political appointee to the Department of Interior. First some background on Laverty’s Bigfoot connections: In October 1967, Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin claimed to have captured on film a female Bigfoot retreating [...]
New “Paddler” Photo Surfaces
A new photograph, above, has surfaced of Idaho’s Lake Monster, Paddler (specifically look at the right hand corner). And I do mean surfaced. This image was taken on March 29, 2007, from Grouse Mountain, Idaho, by The River Journal’s staff photographer Jay Mock and sent to Cryptomundo by “Surrealist Research Bureau” columnist Jody Forest. Obviously, then, Paddler is the real deal. Paddler, the Lake Pend Oreille Monster, does appear to exist. But is it merely a cover story for the use of Navy submarines or are submarine sightings being confused with actual lake monster accounts? In the early 1940s, near [...]

Thoreau: Listen For New Species
I understand he wasn’t talking about “new species” in the same way that cryptozoologists do, but this thoughtful quote for the day speaks to how we have to “listen” as well as “look.” The air is full of birds, and as I go down the causeway, I distinguish the seringo note. You have only to come forth each morning to be surely advertised of each newcomer into these broad meadows. Many a larger animal might be concealed, but a cunning ear detects the arrival of each new species of bird. These birds give evidence that they prefer the fields of [...]
KNM-ER 1470: An African Fossil Ape?
KNM-ER 1470 = Homo rudolfensis = ancient ape? The skull above was discovered by Bernard Ngeneo in 1972, at Koobi Fora in Kenya. It has an estimated age of 1.9 million years. Originally, KNM-ER 1470 was claimed to be a Homo habilis skull. The braincase was found to be surprisingly modern in many respects, much less robust than any australopithecine skull. It also did not have the usual robustness and large brow ridges of Homo erectus. The face, in contrast, is extremely large and robust. In the last few years, an increasing number of anthropologists have classified this skull as [...]
