9/11: Never Forget (10 Years)

Valuev leads search for 'Russian Yeti'






Autumn's arrival in the north means spring will have sprung Down Under with its peculiar brand of fauna emerging from the underbrush. Foreseeing a fortean pageant The Centre for Fortean Zoology in New Zealand enumerates the leads that caught their fancy, among which are an Australian Big Cat and two eerie calls, one of which was described as "a high pitch, like a cow that had been bellowing and bellowing for hours and its voice had gone horse (sic)." Elsewhere, Cryptomundo shares a tale that al-Qaeda isn't the only thing being found in Afghanistan but an Afghan Mystery Cat: The Kandahar Cougar.

Loren Coleman shares his thoughts on showman P.T. Barnum and his contributions to the field of cryptozoology. More than little people, fat ladies, and dog-faced boys, Barnum set an example of promotion that brings strangeness into the public consciousness. He redefined museums from stuffy rooms with unctuous audiences wearing monocles to a place of discovery and wonder. The International Museum of Cryptozoology Musem in Maine attempts to maintain that spirit by spreading knowledge of hidden beasts and living fossils. Coleman also participated as a judge in io9's contest for best photographic evidence of a cryptid. Hold onto your hats because "We Found A Cryptid! Meet The White Cheetah." Among the runners up are leeches in disguise and a pibald wallaby--along with anecdotes from the competition and the tools on hand to prevent chicanery. Elsewhere, aFollowup On Reptoids And Dinosauroids by Dale Drinnon, with feedback casting new light upon the subject. Are lizardmen actually birdmen if they share a saurian ancestry? Would their anatomy converge with primate anatomy or assume something far stranger? Then we have Ghost Theory's take on two recent Bigfoot stories: Part 2 Breakdown of Utah Bigfoot Video and Is This The Final Nail In The Standing Coffin?

Rictor-Riolo's Finding Bigfoot Art
Is This The Final Nail In The Standing Coffin?
Ghost Theory
By Scott McMan · September 7, 2011 · 3 Comments, 187 views More news is out on Todd Standing and his association with Finding Bigfoot. It would seem Todd's tall tales were challenged by the Finding Bigfoot team and Todd lost. ...



Finding Bigfoot quest brings TV crew to area
Cochrane Eagle
The mythical Bigfoot may be living in the wilderness southwest of Cochrane and the hosts of Finding Bigfoot hope to find evidence to support this. “You're seeing a perfectly normal animal that lives here in North America,” said host Cliff Barackman at...



Reptoids And Dinosauroids Frontiers of Zoology
Is Earth being visited by our dinosaur forebears in the guise of aliens? Reptilian aliens are a mainstay of UFOlogy with the likes of Riley Martin toDavid Icke revealing their true natures and motives. Ancient cultures from six continents have woven these saurians into their heritage as deities, friends, and neighbors. Frontiers of Zoology challenges the final frontier in a detailed article telling of Dragon-Gods, modern day encounters with lizardmen, and the reimagining of troodons which bear an eerie resemblance to the Greys. More down to Earth is a report from Cryptozoology Online: Giant Crocodile, Captured Alive Has Potential To Be A Supergiant. Over 21 feet in length, this beast has the potential to grow even larger in size and notoriety.


Mules, ligers and jumars... say what? History remains strange but is summarily dismissed by Karl Shuker who focuses on the improbable Horse-Cow mutt known as the jumar since the mid-16th century, while casting doubt upon the chimerical cryptid known as a cuino, long celebrated as a heretical hybrid between a pig and a sheep. He goes on to reveal three breeds of pig that may be the masterminds behind the perpetuation of cuinos in farmyard fables. Elsewhere, Loren Coleman announces The Relict Homonid Inquiry, a new scholarly journal addressing our extant cousins with essays, news briefs, and correspondence in addition to seeking submissions from objective, reputable scholars in the field. And theLongview News-Journal publicizes the upcoming 2011 Texas Bigfoot Conference in Tyler, Texas on October 1st.

Bigfoot Utah video breakdown part 2.







While target shooting in the mountains of Utah, some men who had gone fishing notice something moving in the trees. Two cameras are rolling and capture what might be a Bigfoot walking away. Later a kind of "hut" is found not far from camp. But some commenters on Cryptomundo seem to think that it's a man in a very thick jacket, a survivalist or hunter, which would also explain the tent-like structure that was found. And from Colorado, yet another Bigfoot Caught on Video in San Juan Mountains. Much smaller, far less hairy "creatures" are causing panic in Sri Lanka, whereGrease Devils Riot Kills Police and another officer and five other people are hurt as residents gave chase to one. A map of "sightings is shown. The wave of sightings of “Grease Devils" is similar to the past encounters with Indian “Monkey-Men.” A much different creature, this one with Emerald Isle roots, is described in Digging Up The Dearg-Daol. What is the origin of this vampire-like demon that's said to be the most dreaded creature in Irish folklore?

DVD Review: Yetis, Sasquatch and Hairy Giants with David Hatcher Childress


This DVD presents a talk given by David Hatcher Childress at the Ancient Mysteries Conference in Arizona, and it's pretty darned good. It is essentially the video form of Childress' book, with a terrific slideshow of photos which are in the book, as well as video clips from such movies as The Abominable Snowman of the Himalayas. It also goes into Giants throughout history, along with factoids about different events such as the Patterson/Gimlin Film, the Minnesota Iceman incident and other events in the history of Bigfoot. I do recommend getting this DVD. 4 1/2 out of 5 stars.
Monsters and Men In Black Mysterious Universe
Alistair Baxter, a Nessie hunter, found more than he bargained for one summer evening in 1968 after coming face to face with an ethereal ball of light with soporific qualities. The next morning a trio of mysterious agents debriefed him, leaving with a curious smirk and the ominous statement "We might return." For the next three nights of his lake monster expedition, Baxter was troubled with dreams of Bigfoot as the herald of apocalypse. Armageddon, conspiracy, cryptozoology, oneiric omens, and ufology upon the shores of Earth's weirdest lake relate a suggestive story of interconnectedness that would do Charles Fort proud.

New Expedition to Sumatra The Paranomalist
The Center for Fortean Zoology has organized another expedition to Sumatra in search of this short, powerful, bipedal hominoid unrecognized by science. The expedition leaves on September 9th and is led by Adam Davies, the author of Extreme Expeditions. Two teams are being deployed to maximize their chances of finding evidence of the creature; the second team will be led by Dr. Chris Clark, and will include Rebecca Lang and Mike Williams of CFZ Australia. While this expeditions will be following Sumatran regulations, back in 1959 the Nepalise government set forth regulations concerning any mountaineer's interactions with another mystery hominoid, the Yeti, as described in American Diplomatic Memo Outlined Rules For Yeti Hunting in Nepal.




HAPPY LABOR DAY FROM THE SOUTHEAST SASQUATCH ASSOCIATION!!!!!!

Satori has many different definitions in Japanese. One is "understanding." Other etymologists dare to posit the term is a transliteration of "satyr," being a telepathic creature assuming different forms of an ape, dear, or goat-man from whom the best defense is maintaining an empty mind. Forteana goes on to relate an anecdote of a woodcutter's encounter with such a beast raising a controversy: is the beast an actual cryptid or a lesson in Zazen? Half a world away upon the island that bore another great empire, Big Cats in British Files provides a lesson in the A,B,C's of alien big cats. Panthers hiding in pubs, leopards lurking behind lorries, and other ravenous felines emerging from the shadows of legend into the mainstream with more public offices acknowledging their existence.
