Todd Neiss, with the American Primate Research Group, passes this breaking news along, moments ago:
Tom Biscardi was just featured in Fox News this morning (6:25am – PST) with regard to an alleged Bigfoot sighting in the Catskills of New York.
I have to say his interview was classic Biscardi…pathetic.
At first, Biscardi said that he flew in [to the Catskills] last Thursday and had already gathered evidence. Then he stated that, after setting up trip cameras, he had acquired photographic evidence. Upon being pressed, he admitted that he had no photos of a Bigfoot, but rather deer and raccoons.
Then the host, Greg Jarrett asked him why nobody has ever been able to prove the existence of a Bigfoot, to which Biscardi rambled on about unexplored regions of the United States (?), the “fact” that nobody has ever found the skeletal remains of a bear (??), and that GPS wouldn’t even work where he was (???). With that the hosts Megyn Kelly and Gregg Jarrett (filling in for Bill Hemmer) snickered.
The interview ended ABRUPTLY when, after the interview was well underway, Mr. Biscardi attempted to be cute and quipped, “So…how’s Ken and Barbi this morning?”
To have such a HUGE audience and simply blow it like that is mind boggling.
Thanks (again) for setting SERIOUS Bigfoot research back another 10 years, Tom!

About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
