Double-entendre: A word or phrase having a double meaning; the use of such a word or phrase. Here’s my double-entendre for the month: trailers. Below is the video trailer to the forthcoming documentary by writer/director Sean Whitley, Southern Fried Bigfoot. As a trailer, you will note it does not have CG identifications of the people being interviewed. But I have a feeling many of you will know who all of these guys being interviewed are. Trailers are teasers to encourage people to come watch the whole film. I think you will be intrigued by what you see. Within this trailer, [...]
New Debate Over Luneau Footage
You knew it was going to happen. The debate about the ivory-billed woodpecker’s re-discovery has boiled over to the frame by frame analyses, con and pro, of the 2004 Arkansas video on a level comparable to that we’ve seen with the Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot footage. In the journal BMC Biology on March 13, 2007, the latest is a discussion of the frame by frame analysis of what has become known as the Luneau video by a Scottish scientist Martin Collinson. Collinson just is not buying the fact that the ivory-billed woodpecker has been found. He thinks the video is of another [...]
Paul Cropper on Springbrook Yowie
Australian cryptozoologist Paul Cropper, co-author of The Yowie: In Search of Australia’s Bigfoot offers his take on the comments here on Cryptomundo regarding the Springbrook Yowie earlier post. This is Paul Cropper, co-author of the Yowie book. It’s no stunt. Firstly, the article author, journalist Gabrielle Dunlevey of the Gold Coast Bulletin, contacted us about a week and a half ago about the reports. We didn’t call her. Here’s a quote from her email to us: “Hi Paul and Tony. I was hunting around for stories at Springbrook today, and learned about the recent release of your book from Andre [...]
The Outer Edge
Just to answer a question about my first two books, The Unidentified and Creatures of the Outer Edge, with Jerome Clark, yes, they have been republished. And yes, they reflect our youthful theories, long thrown overboard. But the reports, sightings, and some connections still ring true, decades later. First appearing in 1975 and 1978, these two paperbacks were published in 2006, as a special double edition with a new introduction. The Unidentified and Creatures of the Outer Edge: The Early Works of Jerome Clark and Loren Coleman is a combined quality paperbound book from Anomalist Books. The Unidentified has intriguing, [...]
Cryptomundo’s Ultimate CZ FAQs
(Click on image to see full size version, enhanced by shockbeton) Fans, friends, and readers of Cryptomundo, I have an idea that it might be good to have a permanent “Cryptomundo’s Frequently Asked Questions” location attached to the Cryptomundo site. Perhaps it would be via a long blog of answers, or series of blogs. Maybe it would be a hyperlinked sidebar dedicated location. I see this as a gift in return to all those who have done so much to keep my blogging alive here. Let me see if this will work. The details will be ironed out. But the [...]
Big Birds Or Not?
Let me try this again. Yesterday, I too hastily said some things about Ken Gerhard’s new book without having the time to fully develop what I meant. I removed that blog, and then later saw that cryptozoologist Chad Arment disagreed with me, a bit, that’s fine, about our different world views of cryptozoology. Chad also took the opportunity to use my vanished blog to have at me. I actually think that is great, as I need to be pulled in sometimes, especially when a book puts me in a bad mood and I go too global. I did not mean [...]
Springbrook Yowie Is Back!
There’s news from the Gold Coast Bulletin in Queensland, for March 2007, of breaking Yowie activity. Paul Cropper sends along the full story, available if you click on the above image. For more on the past Springbrook Yowie sightings and footprint finds, please see The Yowie: In Search of Australia’s Bigfoot by Tony Healy and Paul Cropper. It is destined to become an instant cryptozoological classic.Dean Harrison, Austalian Yowie Research
Marysville Track
Reports of Bigfoot in California have been discussed in the media for over a week, as Craig has noted here. Above is a photograph taken of the picture of one of the Marysville tracks. What do you think of it?
Bigfoot’s Monolithic Margins
Part of the exercise here is to understand that in pursuit of good evidence leading to the verification of the reality, scientifically, of Bigfoot, we must build the best collection of Bigfoot footprints under the sun and throw out fake footprints on the way there. There is a point in our quest where it must be realized that nothing is beyond reproach and nothing is above reexamination, by us, by Bigfoot skeptics, by debunkers, by true believers, and by agnostics. Even though I readily admit my pro-Bigfoot bias, I am not out to sell you on one side or the [...]
NY Beavers Are Back
North American beavers have returned to New York City for the first time since the animals left the region about 200 years ago.Biologists said the beaver’s return to New York is a testament to both the adaptability of the animals and the success of the cleanup effort at the Bronx River, where the animal’s habitat was discovered, The New York Times reported Friday. Multiple beaver sightings were reported in fall 2006, but biologists said the reports were written off as native muskrats confused for the similarly-sized mammals. However, a group of biologists investigating the claims discovered evidence of a beaver [...]
