Can we find any of these? Are some of the “extinct animals” merely today’s cryptids? Is this footage of a Thylacine? Compare it with all the known footage of living thylacines.
Megalania
Does a Komodo Dragon-type monitor roam the fringes of the Outback of Australia? Is there a surviving population of a huge species of the family Varanidae in Oz? Rex Gilroy thinks so, and he rolls the name off his tongue with ease, Megalania, the man eating giant lizard:
International Cryptozoology Museum Video
Can Cryptomundians help me? I’m attempting to locate online video clips of any appearances of the International Cryptozoology Museum (ICM) on documentary programs. I’ve only found one. The following YouTube footage was taken at the ICM in 2005, by Lone Wolf Productions. The clip is from the History Channel’s “Deep Sea Detectives” segment on the Loch Ness Monster. (Please ignore where I misspoke in the doc – six miles, not one – as this post is only about obtaining the ICM footage.) Can any of you point to YouTube or other online video postings that have snippets of the museum, [...]
Cryptid: Code Beyond Cryptozoology
The Society for Literature, Science, and the Arts held their Twenty-First Annual Conference in Portland, Maine, on November 1-4, 2007. It was called SLSA ’07: CODE. The conference was intellectually stimulating and extremely academic. One paper read told of ground-breaking implications for cryptozoology, as the term “cryptid” explodes beyond the boundaries of our field. But more of that later. Professor Susan McHugh, from her university website. I was humbled to be an invited guest of one of the conference organizers, the University of New England’s Susan McHugh, the author of Dog (Reaktion, 2004). McHugh is someone well aware of cryptozoology [...]

Happy Halloween, Cryptomundians!
I know what a lot of you do. Your day sort of starts off slowly, or ends like Sloop in that other Portland. As he says: So, I’ve been bored at work and stumbled upon lots of weird websites, like Cryptomundo, Forgetomori…Sloop Research indicates 63% of you, that’s right, you, our audience, are regular visitors to this site. That’s encouraging. I’m glad we are saying enough here of interest to keep you coming back. How involved and visible are we? It appears someone coined a name to talk about us, obviously including you, the regulars, this week: Cryptomundians. A blogster [...]

According to that article: “Boing Boing has become one of the five most visited blogs on the Web, according to Comscore, with a monthly traffic of [...]
