Is there new Bigfoot activity stirring in Montana? Bigfoot sightings among Native peoples often indicate a series might soon follow or already might be occurring. Let us turn our eyes to the Blackfeet. And learn lessons from the Sioux. Caption: At left, Bruce Schildt’s kids stand near a line of tracks their father believes might belong to Bigfoot. The tracks were discovered Jan. 1, when the elder Schildt notified Blackfeet Fish and Wildlife and had them investigate. The best track is the one above. Schildt reports the tracks are about 18 inches long and 10 inches wide, and the stride [...]
Attacking Patterson’s “Video”
The countdown is on. Next year will see the 40th anniversary of the so-called “Patterson Film,” more properly labeled the Roger Patterson-Bob Gimlin film footage of a Bigfoot at Bluff Creek, California, taken on October 20, 1967. Expect more and more attempts to examine this episode in cryptozoology in the coming months. Let’s hope they all are not as awful as the one critiqued here today. Andy Kaiser, a reporter at The Grand Rapids Press in Michigan demonstrates the foolishness that still exists among the media when Bigfoot is discussed. Kaiser wrote an article this week entitled "Do Video Enhancements [...]
More New Tracks
More photos of Malaysian tracks make for new analyses and more conjecture on what the prints might be. What individually has been more mystifying in the recent publication of merely one track’s image seems clearer in this asphalt trackway. The Sumatran rhinoceros is rare in Malaysia, but this muddy series of prints appears to show, for the first time, that these are from a rhino double-stepping into its own tracks on this road. This is the newest track from Malaysia, just published on February 28. It is one of three footprints found that were perhaps 20 cm across and 40, [...]
Malay DNA & Cast in Play
DNA samples, theories on the creatures living in the swamps, future appearances on reality television are all in the news. Do not look for the Malaysian Bigfoot story to bolt from the media radar soon. Furthermore, we continue to ponder what to make of this track, cast by Sci-Fi’s Josh Gates? The footprint site is more visible in this new photograph (above) of the Malaysian Bigfoot cast still in the ground. This is the footcast that will be tested for DNA. Compare it to the following images of the other side of the cast and various comparative rhino and Orang [...]
Why Frame 352?
Ever notice the underlying motif that subtly is to be found in a large majority of Bigfoot photos, demonstrations, recreations, sketches, and drawings? Ah, it developed from the 1967 Patterson-Gimlin footage, anyone would quickly answer, because everyone is just repeating that famed pose of “Patty.” But then think about it for a minute. There are 952 frames of the 1967 Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot footage from which to choose. Why did Frame 352 become so famous? What if another frame from that film had been picked and published first? Today it is almost taken for granted that one frame, no. 352 is [...]
What Do You See in This Cast?
This is the footcast found by Joshua Gates of Sci Fi Channel while on a recent Malaysian Bigfoot expedition. Consider the possibilities behind this track and share with Cryptomundo what you observe and consider significant to notice in this cast (below, under comments): Could it be…. A track representation of the Malaysian Mawas? Or Orang Dalam? Or what? How a footprint left by a giant ape survivor related to Gigantopithecus would appear? The reason the finds of the True Giant footprints seem to be four-toed? A reality television prank to see if people believe it? A Malaysian-produced hoax? What? What [...]
Who Was On That Malaysian Expedition?
An explosion of media attention today…at least three articles hitting the internet…news of an expedition…backing by a television show…a photograph of a footprint…and more. Fasten your seat belts. Sometimes it is only location and funding that separate cryptozoologists from the action. As I’ve been suggesting for weeks, Malaysian scientists are the obvious choices for going into the rainforest to look for their own "Bigfoot" first. Reports now from a London paper indicate that a team of "paranormal investigators," including an Australian tracker, a filmmaker from Los Angeles, a reality film crew, and apparently a British reporter are in hot pursuit [...]

Prominent Pennsylvania Puma Seeker Dies
Cryptomundo Exclusive Obituary On Saturday, February 18, 2006, at 6:05 AM, in Pennsylvania, one of the country’s best-kept-secrets, a modest but renowned behind-the-scenes eastern cougar hunter passed away. Roger Cowburn, 77, of Potter County, Pennsylvania, died. Roger Cowburn of Galeton, Pennslyvania, is a member of the Eastern Puma Research Network, a group actively searching for evidence that eastern panthers are still found in parts of eastern North America. (G. Parker) The Penn State’s Nittany Lions are nationally known, mostly as a football team. But the “Nittany Lions” didn’t pop out of the air as a name. Nittany is the mountain [...]
Malaysian Bigfoot: Footprint Photos & Drawing
The media items from Malaysia of the ongoing Bigfoot investigations, of course, are sounding less and less like the traditional Pacific Northwest Bigfoot. No surprise there. More elaborate photographs of the track finds have been published, and illustrations of the folk art representing the creatures have been printed, as well. The Asian Paranormal Investigation findings run 49 pages long, and, in essence, deconstructs the media and wonders if there’s a “Bigfoot” at all behind the sightings. The API report concludes the encounters are with Malay orangutans. Of course, cryptozoologically speaking, this would still be a worthy discovery, as orangutans have [...]
