Seminole Project Finding Strange Looking Artifacts In Florida Swamp
The Pacific Northwest has been Bigfoot territory since time
immemorial. Over the years Bigfoot has been sighted in 49 of the USA's 50
states. Yet the Northwest remains a hotbed for hairy hominids. Bellamy
Pailthorp meets us at the crossroads of folklore and science for
insight on this enduring mystery. Of course, such stories are nothing
without pictures and this set is more than a thousand words:

What is this Crypto Crew
The Crypto Crew brings us an intriguing albeit
blurry photograph of a mystery creature spotted in Arkansas. As is often
the case, the strange blobby animal was not seen at the time of the
photo and the Crypto Crew's painstaking zooming and clarifying of the
image leaves us with many more questions. Are those eyes? Is this thing
upright and bipedal? Hopefully, this odd beast will photobomb another
backyard photo and we'll have a better look. In the Terribly Misinformed News Department: Black Cat = New Species?
Cryptomundo once again warns against misidentifcation of odd creature
sightings. Not every mystery big cat is a mystery or in some cases, even
a big cat. The media seems overly eager to label every unexplained cat
sighting as something far bigger than it really is. In this case, it
seems they've labeled a house cat as a rare breed of leopard in
Bangladesh. And finally, Loch Ness Mystery gives us a complete archive
of the Rip Hepple Nessletter Archive. The Nessletter ran from 1975-1985 and is chock full of Nessie info. This impressive list is well worth a look.

Tim Fasano's New Team, Seminole Project, Finds Possible Skunk Ape Kill
Cryptozoologists are nothing but lawful, honest citizens, yet sometimes
they run afoul of the law by not fully understanding it. Matt Pruitt
didn't cross the i's and dot the t's when his Bigfoot Field
Researchers Organization led a group on a hunt through a national
park in Arkansas. The fine has been settled but has their research paid off?
Maybe, if they had been 1,500 miles away: Purported Bigfoot Sound Recorded Near Conway, New
Hampshire, which seems to have everyone stumped. No word
if they enquired of any American Indians, as William Jevning has words
and pictures showing the connection twixt Native Peoples and the Sasquatch. And when you
find yourself out in the woods, be like Loren Coleman who's excited
that the Boggy Creek Book has Arrived,
in which its author, Lyle Blackburn, not only covers the history of the
Fouke monster but does a superb deconstruction of the monster's classic
film, The Legend of Boggy Creek.

Bigfoot? He's Not So Elusive Los Angeles Times
Is the LA Times getting serious about Bigfoot?
Not in your life. What they're serious about is television, of course.
The blurb says it all: "Real or not, Sasquatch is a larger-than-life
figure on TV. It's not so much a search for the creature as a hunt for
ratings." At the Bigfoot Evidence blog, a guest post by Josh Brown, an
physical anthropology major from California, wonders if there is a Conspiracy To Promote Sasquatch.
Could there be an active secret society that seeks to perpetuate the
Bigfoot "myth"? Sounds like the making of a Hollywood movie to us. Has
cryptozoology lost its soul? Make that "Soule." Loren Coleman writes
about the time When Cryptozoology Had Soule, specifically a writer from the '50s and '60s named Gardner Soule who wrote such books as The Maybe Monsters and The Mystery Monsters
but who now has disappeared from the popular cryptozoology scene. Can
anyone fill in his biography? Finally, Karl Shuker is interviewed in Beyond Bigfoot: the science of cryptozoology, where he talks about more than 100 years of discovery of hidden animals and new species, the subject of his new book: The Encycloapedia of New and Rediscovered Animals.

Seeing the World Through the Eyes of a Sasquatch Bigfoot Evidence
Damian Bravo examines the possibility of genetic mutations and adaptations among Bigfoot, most notably in eyes which account for the strange "eye shine" often reported. Taking a look at Bigfoot Experts and Science Academics Tom Fonner compares researchers "in the field" with "armchair researchers" and concludes that both are important but he believes the work of true researchers out gathering evidence is sometimes overshadowed by those who have never set foot in the woods. And finally, Texas Bigfoot gives a big thumbs-up to The Beast of Boggy Creeek in their Book Review. The book is all about the infamous 1970s Bigfoot encounter that has become a fixture of film and folklore, as well as about the sightings that continue to this day.

Unless someone gives you badly faked photos or video or even a Bigfoot costumes crumpled up inside a freezer, it can sometimes be very hard to distinguish fact from fiction in eyewitness acccounts. Bigfoot Evidence gives us the how-to of examining micro-expressions on the faces of alleged Bigfoot witnesses. Here's one Bigfoot we'd definitely clearly remember encountering--"Big Daddy". Dale Drinnon gives us an extensive look at the Eastern Bigfoot: Homo Sapiens Heidelbergensis: Big Daddy Is Still Around.

The odd part has their quarry staying out of water and living happily ever after, receiving a Christian burial. It turns out that the Netherlands have more mermaid legends than you can shake a fishing pole at than merry old England. And over at Bigfoot Evidence, we have TeamTazerBigfoot's Incredible Interview With A Bigfoot Witness In Maine. Submitted for your approval is a unique account of a man stumbling upon a sasquatch while hiking through the woods. The level of detail recalled is remarkable and bound to raise a stir among cryptozoologists.
