Everyone at Cryptomundo Wishes You All
A Very Merry Holiday Season for ’06!
Our thanks to Ted Bastien for allowing us to post and use his wonderful cartoon to get this message of joy out there to our hundreds of thousands of loyal readers.
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.
hey loren, craig, & everyone I hope you all here have a wonderful safe merry Christmas etc. I’m sure sightings of cryptozoology animals will be coming soon or new info or books etc about sasquatch.

Merry Christmas to the Staff of Cryptomundo! May you also have a healthy, safe and prosperous New Year!
We all look forward to reading all the new posts in 2007! Keep up the excellent work!
We have been made to search the heavens, search the deep forests, the deep caves and the seas. We study, we ponder and probe mysteries.
Now here at Christmas a new search we begin, to find in our hearts – Peace on Earth and Goodwill to all men.
Merry Christmas.
All the best to everyone out there!
BTW, the Sasquatch in the cartoon is based on the “Bumble Snow Monster” from the Rankin-Bass Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer TV Christmas special: at the end, what the Bumble did was to place the star on top of the Christmas tree.
At the time the animation was done (early 1960’s) virtually nobody knew about Sasquatch although Sanderson’s book was already out. It was an obscure matter. But THAT is why it was an “Abominable” rather than a “Bigfoot”
At any rate, All I really wanted to say really was Happy Holidays to everybody!
…You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful, strive to be happy.
