Remember the “Snow Walker” footage of a “Yeti in a snowfield.” It turned out to be a fake that the producers of Paranormal Borderland, an old UPN program that lasted about two episodes, created to boost the ratings of their first show. Now the obnoxious Penn & Teller and their BS Showtime Network program are claiming to have done something similar. Do they want news outlets such as Cryptomundo to talk about them because we have ignored them so well? Of course they do. A teaser digital preview for their forthcoming “cryptozoology” episode on Showtime is broadcasting that they faked [...]

Dog-Sized Monster Rabbit
Last week, in time for Easter thoughts of cuddly bunnies, images of armed hunters like this gentleman below, were broadcast around the world. The hunt for the giant rabbit said to be destroying the gardens of Felton, UK, was on. Under headlines like “Giant Rabbit Terrorizes Village” and “World Goes Crazy For Wor Rabbit,” the media informed an anxious public that: A “monster” rabbit has apparently been rampaging through vegetable patches in a small village in northern England, ripping up leeks, munching turnips and infuriating local gardeners. “They call it the monster.

Yeti Yes, Corwin Hardly Bearable
Loren Coleman Reviews "Corwin’s Quest: Realm of the Yeti" On April 15, 2006, the Animal Planet’s Jeff Corwin treated us to a frustrating two hour advertisement for Disney World’s Expedition Everest. As it turns out, after watching "Corwin’s Quest," I have a lot more respect for Joe Rohde and his design team at Disney than I do for the Corwin staff’s research abilities. Jeff Corwin is a popular and funny host of his animal programs, sort of an American version of Steve Irwin. Like Irwin, Jeff places himself in close encounters with dangerous animals as part of the fear factor [...]
