Oliver is not a Sasquatch, but you might not have known that in the 1970s. Articles about Oliver being a Bigfoot were written in all seriousness. But Oliver is a chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes). Unfortunately, despite his history being easily obtainable, I still get inquiries about Oliver really being a Bigfoot. Supposedly, there is a government […]

Dear Loren, I can assure you and your readers that fear did play a part of our decision to not be all running around in the woods at night. As you know also, just walking in this kind of terrain at night is dangerous. Being hit in the head with a heavy rock in the […]

The Society for Literature, Science, and the Arts held their Twenty-First Annual Conference in Portland, Maine, on November 1-4, 2007. It was called SLSA ’07: CODE.

One paper read told of ground-breaking implications for cryptozoology, as the term “cryptid” explodes beyond the boundaries of our field. But […]

It is the 4th of November, and yet it is literally almost two weeks since the beginning of the “Jacobs creature” melodrama. Despite the repeating of this story endlessly by the media, there are new stories being written this Sunday about it as if it is news. This media flap beats to the drum of […]

It’s stuff like this that gives hominology a bad name. I don’t especially like to report on scandals and personal disagreements. However, there seems to be something happening on the fringes of Bigfootry that might boil over into public media exposure, jail time or a court confrontation.

The image here was posted to Cryptomundo as “Créature de Jacobs” and noted as being of a bare bear. It was added to the site to help those people trying to figure out what the latest blobsquatch photograph posted over at the BFRO was, which was being called a “juvenile Sasquatch.” I find it amazing […]
