Upcoming Monsterquest Episodes this month on History Channel...
October 8th, 9:00 EST/8:00 Central-GIANT SQUID AMBUSH
The Sea of Cortez holds a monster of gigantic proportions. Video
evidence of what appeared to be a huge squid, 1000 feet under the
ocean's surface, was captured in 2006 by a Monster Quest expedition
team. The footage is less than 2 seconds long, and difficult to
analyze, but some experts believed the squid was up to 100 feet long.
Now, MonsterQuest returns to the area with improved technology to find
proof of this legendary sea beast.
October 15th, 9:00 EST/8:00 Central-
MONSTER SPIDERS

Anatomy and Dermatoglyphics of Three Sasquatch Footprints
by Grover S. Krantz
Casts of three large human-like footprints were made by U.S. Forest Service personnel in June, 1982, in southeastern Washington State. The fine-grained soil preserved many impressions of dermal ridges and sweat pores.
by Grover S. Krantz
A reconstruction is presented of the living appearance of the fossil species Gigantopithecus blacki; this is then compared with evidence for a reported wild animal in North America. These two forms are provisionally equated, thus giving a formal name to the living animal known as sasquatch, or bigfoot. Alternative taxonomic designations are also suggested in view of the possibility that future discoveries might show this equation to be incorrect.
A Sasquatch Field Project in Northern California: Report of the 1997 Six Rivers National Forest Expedition
by J. Richard Greenwell, D. Jeffrey Meldrum, Mark T. Slack, Darwin A, Greenwell
The fieldwork being reported here is the first of what may be a series of such efforts over a number of years. We conducted the fieldwork over a three-week period in August of 1997. Specifically, our purpose was to attempt to apply and utilize, for the first time, scientific methodology and specialized equipment in a remote field setting with the aim of obtaining evidence for this supposed large bipedal primate.

- Anatomy of the Sasquatch Foot
by Grover S. Krantz
Many plaster casts and photographs of footprints have been examined in detail which were reportedly made by a species of bipedal primate, the sasquatch or bigfoot. They prove not to be simply enlarged human footprints but show several peculiarities. These include flat arches, a double ball, and enlarged heels. Examination of leverage mechanics of the human foot indicates that with excessive body weight certain modifications would be advantageous. The expected modifications are the same as those seen in the reputed sasquatch footprints. - Cripplefoot Hobbled
by David J. Daegling
Evidence for Bigfoot gains credibility when the possibility of human fabrication can be ruled out. The trackways of a crippled Sasquatch are said to provide such a compelling case, but examination of this claim suggests that hoaxing the footprints may have been a fairly manageable endeavor.

Review: Sasquatch Triangle 9-25-08
This was a terrific show, with guest John Horrigan, who told some great stories (which he is very good at) and also promoting the upcoming Mass Monster Mash and Mass UFO Show which is upcoming the weekend of October 17th-18th, with several interesting speakers, including Don Keating, Nick Redfern and Budd Hopkins, and also a tribute to late Cryptozoologist Scott Norman, moderated by Loren Coleman. He also discussed a good bit about the Bridgewater Triangle and the strange phenomenon found within that area. I called in, as well as Bill Green, and asked some interesting questions to John. John was the one who brought up the Georgia hoax situation on the show for once, not Bill. LOL Next week, Don's guest is Billy Willard, beginning at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central at The Sasquatch Triangle, Now On NowLive.com And as always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

Review: Monsterquest 9-24-08
This episode went into attacks by giant bears, supposedly extinct for many millions of years, known as the short-faced bear. Dr. Blaine Schubert, one of the main experts on these ursus species, is interviewed on his expertise on the giant bears. Alaska is one of the main centers of study and research on these bears. Matt Bille, Cryptozoology author, is also interviewed, as is Jim Oltersdorf, a wildlife photographer who is open to the possibility of the giant bears. A Wildlife Biologist, Jim Hechtel, is skeptical of the existence of these giant ursine creatures. There was a giant bear known as MacFarlane's Bear shot in 1864 and thought to be a giant. This skin and skull is in the Smithsonian now, and was examined in 1918 by a scientist and thought to be quite unusual. In 2001, a hunter and his companion noticed a large bear track and a large bear near Anchorage, Alaska. The hunter shot and killed the massive bear, with a 12-inch wide paw and stood 11 feet tall and weighed well over 1,000 pounds. Dr. Schubert is being allowed to examine the remains of MacFarlane's Bear. They are also travelling to New Jersey to investigate a videotape of black bears invading people's yards. An expedition into the wilds of Alaska is also undertaken. The town of Lake Wanda, New Jersey, is being terrorized by bears invading. Oltersdorf is leading the Alaskan expedition across Skillak Lake. The two expeditions do find some interesting things, but not really enough to...well, I will let you figure it out for yourself.

GIANT BEAR ATTACK
In pre-historic times, giant bears weighed up to a ton and stalked early man. History says that these animals died out 10,000 years ago, but could hybridization or the next step in bear evolution produce more giant bears? MonsterQuest investigates witnesses of horrific bear attacks, looks at strange bear remains and mounts two expeditions: the first to the heart of bear territory, Alaska, and the second closer to home in New Jersey where big bears are getting more assertive and aggressive. Will science solve the mystery of this new breed of bears?9:00 EST/8:00 Central on the History Channel. Check local listings for time and channel.
Review: Bigfoot Quest 9-23-08
This was a pretty terrific show, with guest Eric Altman, who gave a sneak preview of this weekend's East Coast Bigfoot Conference, as well as delving into his research. Don Keating called into the show to discuss some things with Eric and wish him luck, and to also kind of plug the upcoming Sasquatch Triangle show this Thursday. I called in and discussed the recent Monsterquest episodes as well as to wish Eric luck, and also to discuss some things with Eric, such as the great time we had in Ohio, and also Jeff Meldrum giving a sneak peek at the MQ episode when he was in Ohio this past Spring. Druid from the chatroom also called in, but was hardly discernable due to a bad connection. Dunno what Bob and Mike have planned for next week, but it begins at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central at Bigfoot Quest And as always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.
