D. in wildlife biology. As I write this, he is presently on his sixth trip to Bermuda, collecting further data […]

Who is Gordon T. Holmes? What do we know about the man who took the Nessie footage in late May 2007? Does Gordon Holmes have visions of becoming the next Sherlock Holmes, following in the footsteps of that character’s creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle? It is with no disrespect that I compile for my readers […]

It turns out that the “giant wild boar” is not exactly Hogzilla II. It’s merely “Fred.” Wire service reports are flashing the news around the world, summarizing the reported truth behind Hogzilla II. It was not a wild boar, and not even a hybrid. It was a farm-raised pig, named Fred, purchased for a canned […]

The Gordon Holmes footage newly taken at Loch Ness, which you can view the stablized version here, should have us looking with caution at the footage of an already existing radio-controlled Nessie. Recognize the above image? Is this one of the two photographs of the original “Surgeon’s Photograph” from 1934? Or is it something else? […]

I am assuming that the location is New Orleans, LA, hence my tag of the Honey Island Swamp Monster. we saw this animal while we […]

Here’s the latest new Bigfoot video posted on YouTube, forwarded to me by a reader. Gosh, I certainly don’t go looking for these, that’s for sure. Maybe it’s just me, but I am beginning to feel like YouTube’s Sasquatch scenes are a total waste of my time, your time, and any serious researchers’ time. I […]

Richard Ellis is one of the curators of the current 2007 “Mythic Creatures” exhibition at the American Museum of Natural History. He once was part of a “new species” hoax back in the early 1980s. The long delay between initial discovery (1976) and the scientific description (1983) [of the Megamouth shark] became the focus of […]

Last year, I reported here of the Bigfoot-type reports called “Cohomo.” Does a child’s old 1960s’ notebooks have clues that relate to those sightings of the 1970s? Or was there just a cultural sense in the air that imaginations and reality merged in the Midwest of a few decades ago? Michael Isenberg, a musician living […]
