Capture of the Cuero Frontiers of Zoology
Dale Drinnon features an article about television fisherman Jeremy Wade of "River Monsters" capturing a 280-lb giant freshwater stingray in the waters of Argentina's Parana River near Buenos Aires. Photos of the fisherman and his catch are included, and Drinnon takes the catch further to reveal what it has to do with cryptozoology. It turns out Drinnon had identified freshwater stingrays as the origin of tales of plesiosaurs in the freshwater lakes and rivers of Patagonia. Drinnon's original report on the Patagonian cryptid is included along with some excellent comments from other cryptozoology bloggers, including Austin Whittall of Patagonian Monsters whose comments had sparked Drinnon's stingray identification. Drinnon keeps it to the inland waterways in another report today, too, with more information on the bountiful possibilities of what could lurk behind reports of manlike water creatures, as seen in More Freshwater Monkeys (Sprites. Some of Drinnon's attributions for the creatures he mentions could bleed over into the subject The Professor expounds on in Faerie?: A Small Data-Set Indicating the Possibility that Folkloric Entities or Something Very Much Like Them Could be Real, Part Four. Nearly two hundred years of testimony make the case far more clear-cut while exploring the cultural roots behind the phenomena. And Dr. Beachcombing covers a rather charming incident in the multitude of tales about the Wee Folk in the Case of the Cottingley Fairies. Meanwhile, the aforementioned Austin Whittall has some interesting commentary on legends of Patagonia that may indicate there was once a Neanderthal presence in the region, something often disputed by anthropologists who say there were no Neanderthals in the New World. You'll find Whittall's commentary in Gualicho & Kollon Myths: Based on Neanderthal? There is news today of creatures from the marine realm that are not cryptozoological in nature, but fit better into the natural history pocket, beginning with the videos collected by Billy Cox - best noted for his "De Void" commentaries on UFOlogy - unveiled in At Least Our Brains Are Bigger and finishing up with an octopoid that approaches admirers bearing a gift in The Eight-legged Invader: Incredible Video Shows the Moment an Octopus Heaved Itself from the Water and WALKED on Dry Land.

Finding True North, Chasing Elusive Bigfoot

The idea that hairy, ape-like creatures roam the wildernesses of the world has gripped the public imagination since the 1950s, though the legend of Bigfoot—or Sasquatch or Yeti—goes back centuries earlier. As Kelly Milner Halls explains in "In Search ...

Could this be the Patterson-Gimlin film of the 21st century? While not nearly as clearly filmed or even approaching the close range of the famous 1968 encounter, footage emerging from a Canadian Bigfoot searcher's foray into the forest less than two weeks ago is causing a stir. What do you think of the new film? Meanwhile, a legendary creature from the Texas frontier, described in the 1830s much like today's descriptions of Bigfoot, became known to the locals of Sublime, TX, as "The Wild Man of Navidad," and the story of it's pursuit by the men of the area is passed along by Nick Redfern, the author of There's Something in the Woods: A Translantic Hunt for Monsters and the Mysterious, in Born to be Wild! Elsewhere, Andrew May takes you back to the 19th century, too, to reveal a, to him, "rather amusing" connection between Sea Serpents, Logic and Lewis Carroll, although he readily admits "cryptozoologists might disagree." Also, noted cryptozoologist Loren Coleman, director of the International Cryptozoology Museum, lecturer and co-author with Patrick Huyghe of The Field Guide to Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates, takes you back a decade to see what stories were making cryptozoological headlines in a year packed with news of destruction and coming warfare, as seen in Flashback: Top Cryptozoology Stories of 2001.

New book by Dave Coleman



Roland Watson, author of The Water Horses of Loch Ness, keeps a close eye on the famous body of water in Scotland that's believed by many to hold an unknown creature considered the most famous cryptid in the world. Now Watson has spotted images from the Google Earth satellite effort that show several large objects in the waters of Loch Ness. The images, from a few months ago, are provided with an image of a cruiser boat taken by the satellite equipment for comparison. Since the objects do not compare at all with the boat image, what can they be? There are reports of another famous cryptid today, too, as Lon Strickler releases two recent communications about North America's elusive apeman, including analyses of the most famous film footage of the creature, in Bigfoot Encounters, Inquiries and Questions. There's a bit of the cryptozoological in Dale Drinnon's latest posting at his Frontiers of Anthropology site today, as well, and can be seen in the illustrations and background of a worldwide myth offered through the tale of The Giant Turtle That Bears The World On Its Back. Elsewhere, the gift-giving season is climbing into full swing and prompting at least one famous cryptozoologist, author and museum director to point you toward the growing number of gifts available for the cryptozoology fans on your list, as can be seen in What Are The Top Cryptozoology Holiday Gifts For 2011? Some additional suggestions can be found in Bigfoot Calendar You Have Got To Have!; Pick Up Your Loren Mug - Support SharonLee's Blog and Cryptozoologist Loren Coleman: How Many Books? We would be remiss, of course, not to mention several Loren Coleman titles can be found in the Anomalist Books Catalog along with the works of many other authors who focus on the unusual subjects that stretch the boundaries of the unexplained.

Some Post-Thanksgiving Leftovers Frontiers of Zoology
Following the American Thanksgiving holiday, Dale Drinnon offers afterthoughts on subjects as wide ranging as chupacabras, giant bats, Thunderbirds, seaborne eggs of the giant Elephantbird and more. Meanwhile, Russell A. Graves works his own boyhood thoughts of the elusive manlike creature said to walk the woods of North America into his explanation of the quest of some Texas searchers he describes in Sasquatch Stalkers. Elsewhere, Loren Coleman pulls up a newspaper account from 1937 that begs the question of whether strange screams and prowlings around Boonville, IN, in that year were an indication of a Giant Sloth in Ohio River Valley? And, since you were no doubt wondering where you could find such elusive information, Coleman offers his expertise as the Director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in selecting some unusual collectibles, including one you make yourself, as seen in an excellent display of images and accompanying text within The Field Guide to Coelacanth Replicas.

A Bigfoot in Vancouver, Canada People's Daily Online
The voice of the government in the People's Republic of China has taken notice of claims that arose from the October conference in Russia that was arranged to draw together experts on the Bigfoot/Yeti phenomenon and seemed, instead, to aim its efforts at sparking tourism for the area of Kemerovo, Siberia. Meanwhile, the approach of the year's end sees the beginning of what is nearly certain to become a long list of superlatives, led by Loren Coleman's assembly of the Top Ten Coelacanth Stories of 2011. Coleman also has a report that shows all the world's animals haven't yet been discovered, one of the tenets that gives impetus to cryptozoologists everywhere, exemplified in New Ferret-Badger Confirmed Discovered in Vietnam. And the activities of known animals in unusual places is highlighted in Coleman's explanation of a New Jaguar Sighted in Arizona. Also, a new report of an extinct creature that has entered the cryptid realm due to alleged sightings and other evidence of its continued presence reveals Tasmanian Tiger Wrongfully Hunted to Extinction.

Dale Drinnon addresses the claims from the American southwestern desert area in which multiple witnesses have reported encountering miniature Tyrannosaurus-like creatures, associates reports of the reptilian chupacabras and includes American lake monster claims in his analysis. Are all these cryptid reports possibly connected? And Drinnon covers another instance in which reports have been made through the years of a living dinosaur species that may actually be an unknown species of a very large bird, as seen in New Guinea Giant Hornbill. Elsewhere, one of the participants in October's hominology conference that made an excursion to Siberia to examine Yeti evidence has gone on the record about the event and the alleged evidence gathered, as Loren Coleman reports in Meldrum Does Not Pull His Siberian Snowman Punches. While Dr. Jeff Meldrum is one of the top scientists addressing the Bigfoot question, there are a number of amateurs seeking proof of the manlike creatures, including the young men interviewed in Believe In Bigfoot? These Guys Do ... Local Research Team Seeking Volunteers. And another professional seeking to unravel the Bigfoot conundrum will join Eric Altman and Lon Strickler tonight at 8 ET, as announced in This Week on 'Beyond the Edge' Radio: Wildlife / Bigfoot Researcher Chester Moore, Jr..
