Armadillo Sunrise

Posted by: Loren Coleman on August 13th, 2006

The nine-banded armadillo (above) is making inroads into the northern USA. Dasypus novemcinctus is most common in the central southern states, such as Texas, and abdundant in some parts of Florida. If you run into armadillos in Missouri or southern Illinois, they are not cryptids or out-of-place animals. They are animals that are extending their […]

Posted by: Loren Coleman on August 12th, 2006

Autumn Williams put Whitehall on the television programming map. But what Bigfoot activity is happening there today? I’ve been gone for a few days, since Wednesday. I checked out the manatee situation in the Hudson River, New York. The big critter appears to have moved on, with no new sightings. But you never can tell. […]

As you will read below, the police officer apparently stated that the incident had been blown out of proportion and it was not a bipedal frog-like […]

Has the manatee reached Poughkeepsie yet? The Amherst Times reported on August 8: Eleven years ago today, The Times ran a little piece about a male manatee who decided, for reasons unknown, to swim up the East River. Now, the manatee nation appears to have sent another emissary northward, though the sex of this one […]

Posted by: Loren Coleman on August 2nd, 2006

Our friends over at The Anomalist have pointed out a cool out-of-place animal story, about a member of the Sirenia, that you will want to read. On a day like this, I feel good just looking at this photograph. TA points out that the Poughkeepsie Journal of August 2, 2006, is reporting a ten-foot long, […]

Mystery Flying Cryptid Photo

Posted by: Loren Coleman on July 23rd, 2006

Cropped and unidentified versions of the above photograph have been floating around the internet, sparingly. I noticed one used in conjuction with the Ropen press release. It clearly seemed out of context, but nevertheless worthy of further examination. Cryptomundo reader Brian Gaugler tracked it down to the ufocasebook.com files, and located the text of the […]

1934’s Murderous Monster Marsupial

Posted by: Loren Coleman on July 15th, 2006

Sometimes the strangest things you hear about in cryptozoology catch up with physical evidence years later. Take, for instance, Killer Kangaroos. No, I’m not talking about the Mystery Kangaroos that punched out the Chicago police in the 1970s. I’m thinking, instead, about the Killer Kangaroo of 1934. This week saw news out of Australia that […]

Posted by: Loren Coleman on June 7th, 2006

In early July 2006, a six-person team from the North Devon-based UK group is travelling to Gambia to investigate these folktales. They may find the trail a little cold. Back […]
