Update: Alaska Cadborosaurus Footage
Posted by: John Kirk on May 13th, 2011
Here at Cryptomundo, as well as on our facebook page, we receive many questions about the airing of the Alaska Cadborosaurus Footage.
One of your writers (staff) or perhaps it was a Guest-Writer Source,on your site said, Discovery Channel’s “The Deadlist Catch” would broadcast film on the existence of Cadborosauras on March 18, 2011. As, far as I know, this film hasn’t aired. Do you have any idea as to when it will be aired & why the delay?
I would think the News Media around the world, as well as, the scientific community would be anxious to show this new proof of the existence of a living,marine dinosaur.stickyum

As soon as we know something, rest assured, it will be reported here.
John Kirk, President of the BCSCC and blogger here at Cryptomundo, has seen the footage, as has been reported here.
Here is his latest update:
I am out of the loop and have no idea when it will be shown.
I am as much in the dark as anyone else about this and to be frank I am really sad that such important footage has been handled this way.
They simply don’t know what they have got in terms of the creatures in this video.

last i heard it would be aired under the one off tv special called “Hillstranded” this was to have aired last year, but you probably heard about discovery channel suing the Hillstrand brothers over not completing the documentary. After the 2011 Crab season they were to get together with discovery and complete the thing since the lawsuit got dropped. I would assume it’ll air sometime in 2011 on discovery channel.
Ok, the next step is to start a grass roots campaign to get it aired. I know the Discovery Channel has it, but does anyone know who to contact to start pushing this forward?
I’m all willing to write the Discovery Channel, every week and day if necessary, but if anyone’s got any better channels of communication to hit up, I’m all ears!
Simple there isnt any sea monster footage, if there was it would have been huge news world wide from the get go. This will be jjust like the dead rotten fish from the champ show.
Be a real skeptic. See the footage, then decide if there’s something to it or not.
Loren, Craig, John–it is Discovery Channel that has it right? and a a subsidiary of the Deadliest Catch bunch?
Just point me in a direction…
Well here you go “Springheeledjack”, you can start contacting Mr. John Malone, CEO & President of Liberty’s Discovery Holdings Communications who owns 66% of Discovery’s stock and voting rights. I’m confidant Mr. Malone would love to have his office phone ringing-of-the-hook from thousands of pissed-off Discovery Channel viewers, as well as, Cryptomundo readers, concerning this matter. Of course, I think your petition idea may work and you can count me in too. Ok, so here’s Mr. Malone’s

@springheeledjack best grassroots movement we can do right now is a twitter campaign. Log in/sign-up to twitter and post something like the following:
@Discovery & @DeadliestCatch do you have any plans on ever releasing the Cadborosaurus footage? #DiscoveryDinosaur #releasethekraken #crypto
I did, and if we get a TON of people to do it, they might give us a reasonable explanation. Anyone with Twitter, get to Tweeting!!!
Much obliged, stickyum…I’ll see what I can do. 🙂
vladkraven–I like that idea too…nothing says tenacious like not going away…
Alright, Loren, Craig, how do we go about getting an online petition going to fire Discovery’s way, in addition to the other stuff? 🙂
Cadborosaurus yes, but what about the even more rare and more frightening Cadborobunny?
The Hillstrands got anything for us on THAT???
