Maine Tree Creature: First Blobsquatch of 2010? Cryptomundo

Loren Coleman presents a new video from YouTube that purports to show a cryptid creature crouching on a limb in the Maine woods. What's real and what's fake about this bit of new cryptid lore? The video may be an example of what cryptid researchers will have to suffer through in the New Year, and Coleman has some examples of what such serious researchers had to suffer through during the year just ended in Top Ten Worst Bigfoot Stories of 2009. Meanwhile, Coleman adds some notes to Gary Campbell's revelations in Top Ten Nessie Stories for 2009 (with images) and presents a fine compendium of publishing's Top Ten Cryptozoology Books of 2009, with cover art.
