The latest episode of the CFZ's monthly webTV show brings you the latest cryptozoological and monster hunting news from around the world, including pieces on the Montauk monster, the Pike experiment, out of place birds, a new bat, a rediscovered rodent, and a ridiculously rare toad. Elsewhere, in Call Blasting: More Historical Background, Loren Coleman continues his pursuit of the history behind bigfoot investigations, following up on the question of who was the first to use "call blasting" to attract Bigfoot? Was it Matt Moneymaker or William Dranginis, or Larry Peters and Willard McIntyre? Then there is the issue of Wood Knocking: More Historical Background. When were the first accounts of wood knocking and who first used the earliest awareness of wood knocking to entice Sasquatch to respond? Here is an early Tlingit record. Finally, we have Greg Newkirk and his wife who do a simple recreation of the recent Spokane Bigfoot video inFaking Bigfoot: Recreating The Laziest Bigfoot Hoax Of The Year. Of course, just because something can be convincingly recreated doesn't mean that the original was a hoax, but given the other facts in this case--or lack thereof--Newkirk and company are probably correct.
