The Associated Press is reporting in breaking news dispatches this morning that the environmental group Frogwatch has found a toad the size of a small dog. They captured the 15-inch-long cane toad (Bufo marinus) during a raid on a pond outside the northern city of Darwin, Australia, late Monday, March 26, 2007. Frogwatch says the toad is the size of a football (they don’t identify what kind, but the Australian organization’s spokesperson is probably talking about what we Americans call a “soccer ball.”) The toad weighs 2 pounds, and is among the largest specimens ever captured in Australia, according to [...]

Was it a Sasquatch? Was there any Kokanee nearby? The sightings still happen year after year. Fact or fiction? Page Six was out and about to ask folks if they believe there are Sasquatches e-like creatures — roaming undetected throughout the [...]
The Tracks of the Sasquatch
The Real Bigfoot and Genuine Bigfoot Tracks Part 8: The Tracks of the Sasquatch by Mark A. Hall The Tracks of the Sasquatch (also known as Bigfoot) The long history of the Sasquatch and Bigfoot indicates that mysterious giant footprints have always been rare in the mountains of the West. The long trails of footprints post-1958 have been planted by people. A few giant impressions have turned up that can be linked to the sightings of hairy giants.

Stories of Pranks
The Real Bigfoot and Genuine Bigfoot Tracks Part 4: Stories of Pranks by Mark A. Hall Stories of Pranks Northern California is a setting akin to British Columbia. It is a land of forested mountains where something the size of Bigfoot could be living. The American Indians had stories of the Oh-Mah and the Tok-Mussis which they largely kept to themselves until a news sensation in 1958 brought to public awareness the topics of immense footprints and hairy giants. Against this background, the prank of leaving false footprints for others to find has been rumored going back nearly to 1924. [...]
Hoaxing
The Real Bigfoot and Genuine Bigfoot Tracks Part 3: Hoaxing by Mark A. Hall Hoaxing Serious writers on the subject of Bigfoot have included the topic of hoaxing in their works. They have acknowledged the existence of bad information that must be sorted from the good to find the valid traces of Bigfoot. My first treatment of hoaxes appeared back in 1979 when I discussed what were popularly labeled “Bigfoot reports” made in Iowa from 1975 to 1978.
