In my California days, when I began looking into the reports of people having intimate encounters with hairy bipedal beasts, I use to file them away as "Bigfoot contactees."

As Loren wrote about here on Cryptomundo back in June, this month of August was a month of "Varmint" sightings in Indiana. Today’s issue of the Palladium-Item published an article entitled Final Varmint Update! commemorating the anniversary of the last sighting on August 31, 1948. As Loren also mentioned, there seems to be some confusion […]

Have the readers of Cryptomundo correctly identified this mystery carcass? While I initially thought that the "Russian Plesiosaur" looked crocodilian in origin, I agree with the majority of the commenters here on Cryptomundo that the carcass looks like it is that of a whale, most likely a beluga. Below are some photos of beluga skeletons […]

Two weeks ago, I reported here on Cryptomundo that there was a report that Russian hauled up a dead plesiosaur. Scott Corrales had forwarded the story to us here at Cryptomundo. The story was taken with a grain of salt, as there were no corroborating photographs. Today, Cryptomundo reader 71_machone informed me that the photos […]

The Thetis Lake Gillman is not the only aquatic anomaly that the RCMP found themselves dealing with in the course of their duties. The force has crossed paths with a number of aquatic cryptids known commonly as “lake monsters,” the most famous of which is the world-famous Ogopogo of Okanagan Lake, British Columbia. I am […]
