There is a strong woman involved in this update to my earlier “Sasquatch Statue Stolen” posting. Nicole Hosack, the owner of Niki’s Quick Six is trying hard to get her hubbie’s Sasquatch back. She has created her own website with links ~ she left out Cryptomundo, humm ~ and a bit of new info. Her backstory about her husband’s and his friends’ early interest in hunting Bigfoot is interesting. Back in the late 1980′s and early 1990′s, during the age of hair bands and IROC Camaros, pegged jeans and grunge rock, a young Jared Hosack had a dream. That dream [...]
Nicole’s Sasquatch
I must say, Sasquatch needs more people this attractive as spokespeople on its behalf!! (Further details are to be found here.)
Call For Cryptozoology Papers
The Association Belge d’Etude et de Protection des Animaux Rares (ABEPAR) asbl have organized its 8th Symposium at Engreux, to be held in The Ardenne, south of Belgium, on Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th September 2008. The thema is “Mysterious Animals from Waters and Woods.” They have opened, for consideration, a call for papers of fifty-minute long presentations (maximum lecture + questions/answers) in English, but best in French if possible. (They will not be paying for your travel expenses, even for accepted speakers. You must find your way to Belgium. I would love to give a formal analysis of Bigfoot [...]
Solomons Island: New Fossil Dolphin
It’s party time on Solomons Island. A new species of extinct dolphin is to be named in Calvert this week. The Solomons Island region is on the western shores of the Chesapeake Bay, in Maryland. Solomons Island, specifically, is on the north side of the mouth of Patuxent River, where it meets the Chesapeake Bay. (Solomons Island is not to be confused with the Solomon Islands, a nation in Melanesia, east of Papua New Guinea, consisting of nearly one thousand islands.) At 3 p.m. (Eastern) on Thursday, June 12, 2008, the Calvert Marine Museum (a typical exhibit is shown above) [...]
The Sexy Sarcastic Grey Area
Monica Rawlins and Melissa Hovey are launching a new internet radio program called “The Grey Area,” tonight, June 4, 2008, at 8:00 PM Central/9:00 PM Eastern on Talkshoe. Art by Wetaworkshops’ Daniel Falconer of New Zealand. The name of the show is a nod to the many “grey areas” in the hunt for Bigfoot. Nothing can be proven, as of yet, and no one is an expert; it’s all grey, says Melissa Hovey. Click on this link for the show’s website. The show’s description proclaims: Straight forward in your face commentary [is shared] about the issues surrounding Bigfoot Research and [...]
Coming Soon: One Million Dollars of Bigfoot Blur?
Recently, I posted about the upcoming contest, “Bushnell: $1,000,000 For Bigfoot Trail Cam Photo.” I noted the outdoors products company Bushnell will soon be offering a million dollars for “a verifiable photo of Sasquatch with your trail camera.” As was mentioned earlier, one of the most famous recent “alleged Bigfoot” photos taken with a Bushnell trail camera was the probable bear image (following) labeled by the media as a “juvenile Sasquatch”: One of the other examples of a possible “trailcam Bigfoot” that I shared was the following one, taken on April 30, 2006, in the Mt. Hood National Forest, near [...]
First Panda Lady Has Died
Joined by her husband, Jack (left), and brother-in-law Quentin Young is Adelaide “Su-Lin” Young. Photo courtesy of her family. Forget about the fictional “Indiana Jones,” or even the real “Zoology Jones,” for a minute. Recall, please, that women were part of the early exploration adventures too! Ruth Harkness is often remembered as the first woman to have found the giant panda. But why was that first cub named Su-Lin? Here is the rest of the story. After Ruth Harkness’ husband William died as he set out to find the first live giant pandas, she turned to a man only identified [...]

Cryptids at Maine Student Book Award Celebration
The Maine Student Book Award Celebration (MSBAC) takes on a decidedly cryptozoological flavor this year. As you read this, I’m in northern Maine, in a secret location filled with librarians and children, getting ready or presently talking about cryptozoology, cryptids, and leading workshops with the kids on casting footprints during a full-day gathering. Actually, other than kidding about the “secret location,” all the rest is true. The MSBAC is occurring on Monday, May 5, 2008, in Penobscot, and I’m there right now, as this is being remotely posted. I’m on site with their out-of-state guest of honor, Kelly Milner Halls, [...]
Chasing Discovery
Chasing Discovery has its world premiere at St. Michael’s College today. I thought Cryptomundians would be interested in this new film: There’s something out there… And the men and women of cryptozoology are determined to find it. The researchers in this relatively obscure science face ridicule, financial struggles and harsh skepticism in their quest to uncover the secrets of mystery animals such as Bigfoot, Nessie and Chupacabras. This is their story… Chasing Discovery seeks to understand the researchers who delve into the zoological unknown. The cryptozoologists featured have devoted decades to researching undiscovered animals, and are among the foremost researchers [...]
