Alberta wilderness guide says photo proof that elusive Bigfoot exists
A Taiwanese fish market has been center stage for the discovery of a new submarine cryptid, Squalus formosus! What differentiates this dogfish from its cousins? Only its mother or an icthyologist could tell but Ya Like Dags does a fine job explaining the particulars of taxonomy and the notability of a new fish's discovery. Meanwhile, a New ‘Demon’ Bat Species Is Found in Vietnam. It was named Beelzebub, or more specifically Murina beelzebub, in honor of its "diabolic" coloration.

Utah Campers Film Bigfoot?



The International Cryptozoology Museum will soon be moving to a new, nearby location in Portland, Maine, that's six times as large as its current digs. Writes Loren Coleman: "The museum is going to be re-curated in a colorful retro style, midcentury modern, to take advantage of the space, highlight the color and look of the 1940s-1960s, give our visitors another level of exhibitory experience, and showcase the founder’s extensive collection of art and objects from that time period." He's putting out a call for donations to assist in the move, and if you give, you can get something in return: Cassie Sea Serpent To The Rescue.

New bigfoot voice recording? Or an excercise in critical thinking?



Does the Dragon of Ishtar Gate indicate that the inhabitants of Mesopotamia had travelled to Central Africa by 800 BC and knew of the Mokele-Mbembe? Not likely. Was Ted Holiday correct in suggesting that the bas-relief dragons instead represented a local unknown animal like the Loch Ness monster? In a follow-up, Dale Drinnon reports on Still More Gargoyle Dragons and Guivre of France, Including Giant Eels This Time. Are the legs and wings seen in dragon depictions later add-ons that the illustrator "expected" should be there?

In April of 2009 a woman standing in her driveway in San Antonio, Texas, happened to glance up and spot what appeared to be a huge, dark winged man gliding through the air. This case is not unique for the area, however. There have been other documented reports of similar winged humanoids throughout South Texas and further south into Mexico. Elsewhere a story of a Bigfoot-like creature known as “The Markham Monster” of Ontario, Canada, appears in Monsters don’t live in your closet. They live in your backyard.And the BBC reports on The mystery of Sri Lanka's 'grease devils', nocturnal prowlers who frequent rural areas and assault women at night. One was described as looking " like a gorilla, he was completely covered in black from top to toe. I couldn't see his face or hands."
Todd Standing, spokesman for the Sylvanic Bigfoot group, believes that a Bigfoot colony is living near the border of Banff and Kootenay national park. He claims not only to have video and photo evidence of Bigfoot, but DNA proof as well. With claims like that it's not surprising that crews from “Finding Bigfoot,” the show that airs on Discovery’s Animal Planet channel, is hot on his Bigfoot trail. There's more on Standing in Bigfoot hunter in the spotlight. Carlton County in northern Minnesota is apparently also getting attention from the "Finding Bigfoot" program, for its reports of the tall, hairy, long-limbed creature: Northern MN 'Bigfoot' Sighting Draws TV Show. But an Expert discredits Kettle River brothers’ Bigfoot footprint find from a year ago in Minnesota. After viewing photographs of the footprint casts and comparing them to the bare foot of one of the two brothers who found the prints,Idaho State University professor Jeff Meldrum said the prints look very human.

What's that animal in the video trying to make its way through floodwaters in New York on August 28, 2011? Not everyone agrees that it's an opossum. It’s hard to guage size from the video. And from the Weird Weekend 2011, we have a video of the author of Extreme Expeditions, Adam Davies on the search for the orang pendek, which starts at about the 3:30 mark. Moving back across the Pacific, now that the documentary film is finished, you can get a Sneak Peek at ‘The Bigfoot Hunter: Still Searching’. Also from the Who Forted site, "idoubtit" posts about Hairless Freaks! Casting A Critical Eye Toward “Mystery Animals.” Her parade of repulsive remains that became postmortem media stars include the Montauk Monster, the Blue Hill Monster, the Minnesota Mystery Roadkill, and Prince Chupa.



Todd Standing "Entertains" Finding Bigfoot Crew





Loren Coleman wonders if hurricanes tend to flush out cryptids from their hiding places. Certainly hurricanes have caused ripple effects within the animal world. Will Irene cause mystery primates to wander? Will big cats pose a post-hurricane problem? Then there’s that business about a hurricane and Mothman sightings. Also, Will gators be found in the sewers? And from the Centre for Fortean Zoology's Weird Weekend 2011 a story about Phineas T. Barnum, Japanese sailors, and Ningyo: the ugly little mermaid.

Sasquatch claims draw TV show to Minnesota






Dale Drinnon replies to comment from his previous discussion of giants as described in the Bible and intuited from archaeological sites in the Middle East and in the New World. Elsewhere, another giant seems to be adding to tourism in North Carolina, as shown in Knobby Legend Lives on: History of Bigfoot Sightings Brings the Curious to Casar, with photo gallery. And the work of biologist Dr. John Bindernagel in the search for Bigfoot is highlighted inTaking Sasquatch From the Tabloids to the Science Journals. Meanwhile, Loren Coleman ponders the aftermath of the former Hurricane Irene, now downgraded to a Tropical Storm, with Hurricanes, Cryptozoology, and Weird Animal News.
