Did Bigfoot Crush Roof Of Town Manager’s Car? Star-Exponent
Bigfoot mania. Bigfoot yucks. Someone — or something — flattened the top of the town manager’s work car, a 2000 Ford Contour, as it sat parked in the lot at town hall in Culpeper, Virginia. And some people have apparently blamed Bigfoot, hopefully for laughs. It's actually a more frightening possibility in this case: Body found near Quebec City. On the same subject, CNN chimes in with a psychology of monsters story: Why do we need to look for Bigfoot?
This post is not about the Oakland, California, AfricanAmerican group, the Black Panthers of the 1960s, but about the 1890s’ Black Panthers, specifically the ones called Santers, in North Carolina. The reports of these enormous all-black felids claimed that these creatures had as their diet various animals and...an unusual extra item.

Bear Lake Monster Revisited Cryptomundo
Did Joseph C. Rich create the legend of the Bear Lake Monster in the late 1860s? Some say that Joseph, the son of Bear Lake’s founding father, Charles Coulson Rich, was in love and created the monster to show his beloved, Ann Eliza Hunter of Salt Lake City, that life was just as exciting in the wilderness of Bear Lake as in the bigger metropolis. Or is this, as Jerome Clark suggests, a pseudoexplanation for the sighting reports of a mammal that actually recalls Australia’s fabled Bunyip?

Film Project Renews Interest In Scottish Monster Legend Phantoms & Monsters
The legend of the Big Grey Man of Ben MacDhui is to be made into a movie, called Broken Spectre, by an amateur film company. Inspiration for the film is drawn from the account of Prof. Norman Collie, who encountered the 'Big Grey Man' in 1891.

And Cryptozoology’s Fathers asks: who is the “Father of Cryptozoology”?
First the sighting of a blonde Bigfoot in North Carolina, now its alleged footprint, which measures 15 by 8 inches, has been found in a "no man's land" rural area about 15 miles north of the original sighting. Since its size and shape doesn’t resemble that of a bear or large cat, a North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission wildlife officer reportedly said he doesn't think the print was made by an animal, but there are plenty of skeptics who wonder if it's a hoax.
Cryptids in Suburbia, Part 2 The Paranomalist
We've all heard of sightings of Bigfoot deep in the remote areas of our forests, or the odd reports of an ancient sauropod living in a dense jungle in Africa, or an unexpected, out-of-place animal in the wild. But what about reports of cryptids in our cities and suburbs? Reports from all over the country have been filed over the years of creatures witnesses are at a loss to explain and are seemingly embarrassed to reveal. Are these the sightings of creatures so rarely seen by those living in metro areas that they simply can't identify them, or are they indeed unknown creatures that live, or at least traverse, among us? If you see “Big Red Eye” ask him yourself where he's from. Previously, Cryptids in Suburbia, Part 1.
Bigfoot in the CSRA? Metro Sprit
In the areas surrounding Augusta, Georgia, many residents have witnessed a creature in the woods they cannot explain, though they are hesitant to come forward for obvious reasons of ridicule. Citing reports from the 1970s on up, a local public utility worker has taken upon himself to research the creature in a subtle but thorough way. Since his career affords him much time in rural areas, Dave Collier often gets to speak candidly with folks about their sightings, which they've never bothered to report. Struck by the similarities of the stories, Dave treks deep into the woods in search of evidence to prove the existence of the elusive and, as he describes them, intelligent creatures. Although organizations such as Bigfoot Field Research Organization (BFRO) have investigated countless reports and collected compelling evidence without a physical sample of some sort, science seems uninterested in researching the cryptids.
