Andrew Nicholson has a collection of reports from the archives concerning some of the creatures reported to swim, hop and crawl across the southern continent. From the widely different descriptions of the fearsome Bunyip to the Hawkesbury River creature that favors descriptions of the Loch Ness Monster and to the many reports of sea serpents, Australia is gifted with cryptids as varied and strange as the continent's better known fauna. And there's more from Australia's wide range of creature reports today as Tim the Yowie Man tells of a creature snapping low flying sea gulls out of the air above the surface of Canberra's Lake Burley Griffin in Our Lake Monster. And the folks at CFZ-Australia direct you to Brian Switek's report on the supposedly extinct thylacine, Not a Wolf, But a Tiger, before adding their own commentary and a video in Thylacine Continues to be a Frustrating Mystery. Elsewhere, Micah Hanks explores the connection between cryptozoological and spiritual entities and folklore in Top Hats and Bad Luck Beings: Fear and Folk Devilry in America.

1st Review of Finding Bigfoot Pop-ups



A trip down the online corridors of cryptozoology today begins with Paul A. Trout's adaptation of a segment of his new book, Deadly Powers, in which he gives his explanation for why we're hard-wired to believe in fierce and terrible creatures, from dragons to were-beasts. The gist is that humans are carrying evolutionary memories from the days raptors from the skies and big cats and snakes from the ground attacked and fed on our ancient progenitors. All of which leads us to the field of cryptozoology, where things turn bookish as Dr. Karl Shuker, who's celebrating his birthday today, reveals the cover art and the inside workings of his new book, as seen in The Encyclopaedia of New and Rediscovered Animals - A First Glimpse of My Latest Book. And Loren Coleman, responsible for some of the bestselling cryptozoology books of all time, strings together many great titles in a multiple effort with lots of cover art and some short reviews, to be found in The Top Cryptozoology Books of 2011, as well as The Top Cryptozoology Books for 2005 to 2011 and Top Coming CryptoBooks For 2012: Boggy Creek to Abominable Skeptics. Several of the titles Coleman points to in his three lists are available in time for Christmas giving through online orders from the Anomalist Books Catalog.

Bear Tracks? Sasquatch or Bigfoot Tracks? Strange things happening on Tony Dean's farm in Marion VA



There's a trend going on with anomalous videos and photos of late. Strange things make appearances in them when taken by folks who aren't even looking to make a name for themselves in Fortean circles. A bunch of boys being boys appear to have spooked something from the forest and inadvertantly caught it on tape. Loren Coleman also has the story on Who Was the Spirit Cave Man, where two groups have been at odds over the lineage of one of the oldest mummies found in North America, which may redefine who and what settled there first. Rounding out your visit to CryptoMundo is a Cartoon that Characterizes the Entire Erickson Project.

Bigfoot Vocalizations from Kentucky



Mangy Mutt Chupacabras Frontiers of Zoology
Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. Dale Drinnon, our latter day Sherlock Holmes, picks apart the evidence behind the chupacabra and makes a case for something far less strange and more sad. But there's a cause for celebration in the news that Loren Coleman's cryptozoology Museum Showcases Expanded Quarters. And voila, Malcolm Smith translates from a French account a description of the Mythical Beings of Madagascar. Smith notes: "Readers cognisant with European fairy lore will notice some familiar themes eg changelings, the luring of mortals into water to be drowned, and the water spirits who own submarine cattle and marry human males."

10 other mythical creatures from around the world, other than Bigfoot



The lady at the heart of the analysis of DNA samples alleged to have come from Bigfoot has posted some information that indicates the non-disclosure agreement (NDA) that had been impeding joint announcements of her research efforts in what has become known as the "Erickson project" and those of "Adrian" are in the process of being set aside. Does this mean a disclosure is imminent? The answer to that may be what is found in the response of Matt Moneymaker on Sasquatch DNA Project. Meanwhile, Nick Redfern has a suggestion for those who'd like to take to the road in search of avian anomalies in The Winged Fiend of Winona, and Ken Summers points out some ill-advised detours among the reports of larger-than-they're-supposed-to-be discoveries claimed by less than reliable sources before revealing he doesn't discount all reports of huge humans in ancient times, as explained in Dem Bones: They Might Be Giants.

Skookum Report from the 1800’s



1995 Puerto Rico Chupacabras Frontiers of Zoology
Dale Drinnon may have solved the perplexing Puerto Rican Chupacabras Benjamin Radford claims is the first mention of the creature. And Drinnon's solution, as you'll see, may be as elementary as anything ever declared by Sherlock Holmes. But is it correct? Drinnon also addresses reported sightings of dinosaur-like creatures in Texas and a giant three-toed track from Australia in Leftovers: Texas Mini-Rex Report and 'Burrunjor' Track, suggesting some more easily acceptable identifications for the creatures in the Texas sightings and a supposedly extinct giant bird in Australia. That giant bird Drinnon mentions show up again in the latest from Dr. Karl Shuker as he carefully riffles the pages of a book he obviously appreciates, as seen in Moa for Your Money - Reviewing the Best Book on the Cryptozoology of New Zealand's Avian Giants. Tracks are at the core of a recent dispute about the famous Bigfoot film of 1967, leading to Bill Munns releasing of some seldom seen images to be found in Patterson-Gimlin Filmsite Trackway. And there'll be much more about the disputed film when Eric Altman and Lon Strickler welcome this guest to tonight's 8 o'clock ET online broadcast of 'Beyond the Edge' Radio: Patterson-Gimlin Film Researcher Jeff Hilling. Meanwhile, a brace of Colemans team up for a remembrance evoked in the prose and photos provided by Jerry D. Coleman for Loren's Early Fieldwork, and another Coleman is featured in Nick Redfern's posting of information about a new book, The Bigfoot Filmography by David Coleman, with foreword by Loren Coleman. The book is due out in January.
