Bigfooter Allen Foster takes a peek at the latest episode about reports of hairy hominoids in Malaysia on Destination Truth: The “team” went to Malaysia to find Bigfoot. The leader, Josh Gates, interviewed the Malaysia’s leading Bigfoot researcher, Vincent Chow. Then they went to a local town near the last reported sighting and interviewed witnesses. Off into the jungle they went to where the latest sighting was. The team found a possible footprint and made a cast of it. The footprint was irregular in shape but did look like a possible print. They had one of their night vision cameras [...]
The AP & Dr. Hawks Respond
In the wake of “Krantz Is Dead: Comment to Anthropologist Hawks,” a couple updates are worthy of passing along. The Associated Press dispatches on the Michigan search for Bigfoot, being published since yesterday afternoon, have been revised to note that Krantz is no longer living. The media mentions the “late Grover Krantz, a Washington State University professor who specialized in cryptozoology, the study of creatures that have not been proven to exist…” Wikipedia’s definition of “Cryptozoology,” which is fully available to the AP, has a more developed examination of the word. Saying Krantz “specialized” in cryptozoology is overstating the realities. [...]
Krantz Is Dead: Comment to Anthropologist Hawks
John Hawks, (Ph.D., 1999) an anthropologist in the Department of Anthropology, University of Wisconsin-Madison, writes a popular blog on all subjects he feels impact on anthropology. His contributions are usually intelligent and look at various sides of anthropological debates. However, once in a blue moon, usually with tongue-in-cheek, Hawks writes about Bigfoot-related items, such as his take on the 2005 Texas conference. Intriguingly, the way most cryptozoologically-oriented students find their way to Hawks is when they search for information on Gigantopithecus, as he noted in 2006, here. Now his newest assault on hominology is about how Bigfooters have brought back [...]
Bigfoot Conference Topic?
It is not too early to sign up for the 2007 Texas Bigfoot Conference. All kinds of things happen at the Texas gathering. If you will note, below, here’s Paul Cropper and me captured in 2005, photographically, as a strange creature is seen sneaking up on us. Yes, I wore that shirt to scare away the Sasquatch, it seems, and besides my luggage was lost overnight by the airlines, when I first arrived. Once again, the 2007 conference will be held in Jefferson, Texas; this time is will take place on Saturday, November 10, beginning at 10:00 am at Jefferson [...]
Another Mt. Hood Video
Here is an example of what is captured on the cross-referencing trailcam’s video, at the Mt. Hood site. The trailcam is placed there to attempt to get Bigfoot images. This, instead, is what more clearly shows up sometimes to be photographed.

D-Rock’s Tripp With Cryptozoology
It is not often you see cryptozoology mentioned in someone’s obituary, especially for someone so young as Derek Tripp. It seems as if the field has become so popular, so much a part of American cultural life, that among the creative, the intellectual, and the adventurous, cryptozoology is now routinely part of how we view and live in this world. In a remembrance written this third week in June 2007, Soundoff’s writer Jim Catalano, who has covered the Ithaca, New York, music scene since 1992, devoted part of his weekly column to: Remembering Derek Tripp Derek “D-Rock” Tripp, 33, bassist [...]
Men in Cryptozoology: Blake Mathys
Blake Mathys was born in Ohio on May 31, 1980. On June 17th of that same year, a local Ohio farmer saw a hairy creature at the end of a field. The next day, 17 inches-long footprints were found in a wet area in the woods near where the creature had been standing. Blake’s uncle, Donald Mathys, made a plaster cast of one of those footprints. Blake grew up hearing the stories of that birthyear incident. He also would look often through a scrapbook of newspaper clippings about the sightings and footprint discoveries, which occurred around Logan and Union Counties [...]
