Today is El Cinco De Mayo (“The Fifth of May” in Spanish), which commemorates the defeat of the French army by the Mexicans led by General Ignacio Zaragoza at The Battle Of Puebla in 1862. Many cities with significant Mexican and Chicano populations throughout the United States schedule special events on the 5th of May. It has been embraced as a day to celebrate Latino culture throughout Hispanic America, which, of course, today covers all of North America as well. Therefore, in our tip of the hat to El Cinco De Mayo, today we celebrate El Chupa De Mayo, in [...]
Erectus Dimorphism Discovered?
The news coming out of Malaysia gets more and more interesting every day. Craig Woolheater’s "Malaysian Bigfoot = Surviving Homo erectus?" contains information from Singapore’s Peter Loh, wherein some remarkable potential findings are shared. Photographs, according to naturalist and cryptozoologist Vincent Chow, have been taken by local people of these "Bigfoot" or locally termed "Mawas." The images are so good, according to their descriptions, reported from the news conference by Peter Loh, that the genitalia are visible. Think about it. Right now, scientists do not even know if there is sexual dimorphism – a specific concept that encompasses a clear [...]
More From Mt. Hood
Click image for full-size version Click image for full-size version The photograph with the potential Bigfoot in a camera image that was taken between the two above can be found by clicking at "New Mt. Hood Bigfoot Photograph?" The photographs above were taken immediately before and after the possible Bigfoot camera image. These remote camera captures clearly show that animals, in these two specific cases, deer, set off the camera’s function. And yes, to answer a question asked about why the camera was placed there…the individuals were attempting to capture photographically a Bigfoot .
New Mt. Hood Bigfoot Photograph?
There’s a new “possible” Bigfoot photograph that has been submitted to Cryptomundo. We are making no claims about it, but thought our readers might be interested in looking at this one. And pondering what it might be. It was taken by a scouting camera on April 30, 2006, in the Mt. Hood National Forest, near The Dalles, Oregon. The camera is a Cuddeback digital scouting camera, which was attached to a tree about three feet off the ground. It has a motion/heat detector. Could it be someone going by in a poncho? I asked the people who placed the camera, [...]
The Patterson Affair
In the June 1968 issue of the Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained’s journal, Pursuit, cryptozoologist Ivan T. Sanderson detailed his involvement in the early investigation and dissemination of the footage taken by Roger Patterson on October 20, 1967. The article makes for interesting reading, as it gives an insider’s look at what some of the thinking was as the drama unfolded. The Patterson Affair by Ivan T. Sanderson The most outstanding event in the Fortean field during the past six months, and potentially one of the most important ever to have occurred was the obtaining of 30-feet of [...]
Breaking: NJ Mystery Cat Report
Monmouth County police are reporting a sighting of a large Mystery Mountain Lion or some kind of Phantom Panther around Dutch Lane, along the Colts Neck-Marlboro border, New Jersey, on May 1. Conservation officials studied a large paw print and took scat back for analysis. The State Division of Fish and Wildlife confirmed the paw print did come from a large cat, but they were not clear if the print belonged to a mountain lion. Besides reports from local ABC News and the Ashbury Park Press, Cryptomundo tipster Drew Vics says the local NY-NJ station 1010 WINS is reporting the [...]
Mitchell River Monster?
Editor Lee Murdock of Fly Fishing Magazine brings to our attention North Carolina’s Mitchell River Monster. Noting a North Carolina author who is writing about unusual sightings in the Carolinas, Murdock writes… What caught my eye about this one was the mention of one of our area’s delayed harvest rivers coupled with the word monster: "One of the most compelling and frightening of the stories is that of the Mitchell River monster, a strange, unnaturally tall, violent creature that appears beside a calm stream – or, sometimes, next to Poplar Springs Road." The Mitchell River is located in Surry County [...]
New Mothman Documentary
Why is this man smiling? Should this man be smiling? What movie were these two below in? If you read the first man’s column today in the Charleston Daily Mail you’d probably discover that the second man might not be smiling because guy number one, Dave Peyton, miswrote the name of the movie based on John A. Keel’s book as The Mothman Chronicles. Of course, Keel’s book is The Mothman Prophecies and so is the Richard Gere and Laura Linney movie. (Nice shirt Ms. Linney has on. I’m lucky enough to have it for my museum, and that does make [...]
Fossil Hominoid Tracks
London’s The Sunday Times on April 30, 2006, carries the above remarkable photograph by Michael Amendolia. This one is from a series of fossil tracks of Pleistocene hominoids from 20,000 B.C., found recently near the Willandra Lakes, New South Wales, Australia. Steve Webb, of Bond University, Queensland, and Mary Pappin Jr, a 26-year-old member of the local Mutthi Mutthi tribe discovered the first of what would be 450 more humanlike tracks, as well as what appear to be spear holes in the ground and the tracks of kangaroos and emus. This is perhaps only an eighth of the total, the [...]
Why Bear Lake Again?
In a look at Water Babies and, of course, the Bear Lake Monsters, D. Robert Carter has written a new article in the Provo, Utah Daily Herald, entitled “Mysterious Monsters Inhabited Utah Valley Waters,” published, according to google news alerts, a little after midnight, local time, Sunday, April 30, 2006. The “Pawapicts, or Water Babies, whom native Americans believed inhabited the waters of Utah Lake, Provo River and other aqua pura” are said to come “in various shapes and sizes. Most Ute accounts agree that they had long black hair and cried like infants.” The stories overlap with Merbeing lore. [...]
