1977: Year Of The Creature

Posted by: Loren Coleman on April 13th, 2007

After I posted this morning’s blog “Flashback: Thirty Year Ago – South Dakota Bigfoot,”” about a Bigfoot flap taking place in 1977, Scott Maruna at The Anomalist commented: “Come to think of it, there were a lot of flaps going on that year.” Indeed, there were. The anniversary of the Dover Demon sightings (April 21-22, […]

Coelacanth Pop Culture Reference

Posted by: Craig Woolheater on April 10th, 2007

I remember seeing this commercial several years back and it cracked me up. Nothing like a pop culture reference to a cryptid to make my day…

(Click on image to see full size version, enhanced by shockbeton) Fans, friends, and readers of Cryptomundo, I have an idea that it might be good to have a permanent “Cryptomundo’s Frequently Asked Questions” location attached to the Cryptomundo site.

Big Birds Or Not?

Posted by: Loren Coleman on March 6th, 2007

Let me try this again. Yesterday, I too hastily said some things about Ken Gerhard’s new book without having the time to fully develop what I meant. I removed that blog, and then later saw that cryptozoologist Chad Arment disagreed with me, a bit, that’s fine, about our different world views of cryptozoology. Chad also […]

1901 Cryptozoology

Posted by: Loren Coleman on February 27th, 2007

Cryptozoology historian Brian Gaugler writes: I recently found an old article in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle archives from 1901 that I thought you might find interesting. Assuming that it’s not a newspaper hoax, it discusses the shooting of a living dinosaur in Florida and the work of a secret group of scientists to gather cryptozoological […]

A Life Explored In Words

Posted by: Loren Coleman on February 10th, 2007

I sometimes neglect the fact that few people know really what I have written, in total. Today, for example, a young man emailed me with this message: “How many books have you done Loren? I have only come across two.” Well, I can forget myself, often, for many reasons. It happens. Ha ha. Memory and […]

Euro Stego

Posted by: Loren Coleman on February 2nd, 2007

One of the first dinosaur names that all dino-crazy kids (myself included) learns to pronounce and links to pictures of that tiny-headed, plates-on-the-back image is the “Stegosaurus.” This is the kind of chart presently found on Strategic Transitions learning software that will soon have to be revised. Ask any kid interested in dinosaurs: Where are […]
