California Cryptozoic
What: “CALIFORNIA CRYPTOZOIC” When: October 28 – November 25, 2006 Opening Saturday October 28, 9pm – Partytime Who: Artist Megan Whitmarsh (visit her site for her little Yeti film) Where: October, 28 2006 at the New Image Art Gallery, 7908 Santa Monica Blvd., West Hollywood, CA 90046 How Much: Free “Yeti does Disco” with bling bling or goes Star Wars, well, is sort of weird, I’d say. Or very normal, nowadays. After all, if Wikipedia has an entry on “bling bling” originating from Jamacian patois and noting the contradictory reality that the “bling bling diamonds” are probably conflict diamonds, obtained [...]
Yeti Jacket
Hey, I want one of those as a gift for the holidays, don’t you? David Pescovitz mentions a great new piece of cryptozoology outerwear to add to anyone’s wish list. David writes at Boing Boing: This amazing track jacket embroidered with Tim Biskup’s Yeti illustration is part of his Gama-Go collection for Fall. It’s $78 and I am so deeply saddened that it doesn’t come in XXL to fit my Sasquatch frame. Thank goodness the Gama-Go collection has a soft but durable, fieldworthy but comfortably-sized X-L with good lines to fit me! (My apologies to anyone that didn’t see that [...]
Arcturus Cryptozoology Books
Looking for a rare Keel title? A paperback from the 1970s demonstrating that era’s view of Bigfoot? An oldie but a goodie? Trying to pick up a scarce cryptozoology book? Bob Girard has been selling used books for years, and now does it from Port St. Lucie, Florida. If you want to keep the good books in this world, you have to support those booksellers that aren’t afraid to sell them. Therefore, we have to support, for example, Arcturus Books. Here’s a sample below of items you can email him about, and see if he still has it in stock. [...]
Bigfoot vs Mummy
Will the above “mummy” displace efforts to seriously study the “Johor Bigfoot”? As previously mentioned here, the group the Seekers have decided to sell the oft-photographed Johor Bigfoot footcast (see below). The cast is the one that Joshua Gates, the host of the Sci-Fi Channel’s Destination: Truth, and his producer Neil Mandt were filming in Johor, last February. Their reality program does not seem to be on the fall schedule, however. Syed Abdullah (left) and Dr. Kenny Fong with the Singapore-based group, SPI, are shown above with the cast. The importance of this cast to the Seekers has waded. That [...]
Confirmed: All Dead on Nepali Helicopter
Earlier here notice was made of the impact on Yeti studies of the reportedly downed Nepali helicopter. Rescuers have now confirmed that there were no survivors in the wreckage of a helicopter in Nepal four days after it disappeared. The following are press releases being dispatched about the horrible news, although it is getting little mention in the North American media. Sri Airlines chopper crash: A national tragedy It was a national tragedy when the country lost noted nature conservationists, senior officials of the Ministry of Forest and Soil Conservation and Kathmandu-based foreign missions in one of the deadliest crashes [...]
Yeti Scholar On Downed Helicopter
A helicopter full of the intelligentsia of Nepal’s Himalayan conservation and forest management has been apparently found. Radio contact with the craft was lost on Saturday, September 23, 2006, while it was in a remote mountain area of Nepal, 190 miles (305km) east of the capital, according to Reuters. I note that several of the people on the copter may have had dealings with the search for the Yeti or Abominable Snowmen in the region. One individual, specifically, had been an outspoken advocate of the Yeti in recent years. Nepali environmentalist Mingma Norbu Sherpa (above and below), who did the [...]
Cryptozoologists Will Always Have Paris

Bigfoot Family Tree
Click image for full-size version François Vanasse and an associate (HP) have created the Bigfoot family tree shown above. Here’s Vanasse’s comment on it, followed by his colleague’s: +++++++ “First off, this is assuming that any of these creatures actually exist, and are biological…. To start with we placed all of these into the family of Great Apes, but have created a new subfamily called ‘Ferrisvirae’ which literally means ”wild men” and includes both imaginary genuses of Megapodapthecae and Capleoferrae. Sivapithecus is the ancestor of Gigantopithecus and hence the possible ancestor of Capleoferrae. However in our tree we chose to [...]
Mystery Tracks of Arkhangelsk
Remember the James Bond movie GoldenEye? Well, it begins at a dam by a chemical facility near Arkhangelsk. Known to the Vikings, called Archangel by the English, Arkhangelsk is a historically significant port in Eurasia. Now, from Russia with love comes a strange but remarkable record of new footprints found near Shogorka, Arkhangelsk Oblast. Of what could these be a record, in spite of the following headlines? You be the judge. Arkhangelsk photos: Evidence of Yeti Existence? Regnum (News Service) presents a photographic report from the place where footprints of, supposedly, a Yeti, most commonly referred to as an “Abominable [...]
