Salt Fork Squatching

2012-01-27T19:10:00.001-05:00

In honor of this week's episode of Finding Bigfoot that was taped at Salt Fork State Park, I am going to be posting stories from witnesses who had some type of Bigfoot activity. I do believe there is a Squatch in these woods! Our first story comes to us from Nancy and Bernie. Nancy and Bernie were high school sweethearts and are still married. They share a passion for Bigfoot and they spend

Bart Cutino Addresses Robert Lindsay's "Journalism"

2012-01-27T18:34:00.002-05:00

Last night while taking a break driving southbound from some winter northern California research areas with my partner Rgr Leiterman, I happened to see both Lindsay's “interview” with Justin Smeja and the ridiculous accusations & exchange posted with Dr. Meldrum. Having been an invited participant during the body recovery effort in July 2011 & having become the closest confidant and liason (if

She Won't Accept My Friend Request :(

2012-01-25T14:20:00.000-05:00

This statement was just posted on Dr. Melba Ketchum's Facebook page. She won't accept my friend request so I will rely on Shawn at Bigfoot Evidence to provide me with her daily posts. From Melba Ketchum via Facebook, Posted 7:42 PST To address the recent hype and misstatements concerning my paper, please be advised that the information pulled off the US Copyright website for a 2010

Now What?

2012-01-25T10:44:00.001-05:00

I am starting to think that maybe we should pay more attention to Robert Lindsay. I just don't know anymore. My gut instinct, which is usually never wrong, tells me that the DNA evidence was all just another event that would leave us still wondering if Sasquatch are flesh and blood creatures AND more so, if they truly exist. I had been leery from the beginning due to Biscardi's involvement,

Ohio Conference Rumors

2012-01-23T06:01:00.002-05:00

Well no one has officially confirmed this but I have heard through several sources that Don Keating has turned over the annual Ohio Bigfoot Conference to Marc DeWerth. The proposed date of the conference is May 18th - 20th. Marc is trying to get Dr. John Bindernagel to be a guest speaker. Dr. Bindernagel is a professional biologist who studies the biological aspects of Bigfoot life. I'm not

Justice for Riley Rawlins

Please share this with anyone and everyone who may be connected to some form of media outlet. This could be made into a documentary as well. We need the United States Government to take a closer look into the mishandling of crimes in America and especially Texas. JUSTICE FOR RILEY RAWLINS On January 7th, 2012 Riley was walking to the Sonic off of Audelia & Royal in Dallas, Texas. He was

Bigfoot in Ohio -1968

2012-01-21T08:35:00.000-05:00

Ohio Wolfman a Bigfoot? Back in 1968, Ohioans believed that "Bigfoot" only roamed the forests and construction sites of the Pacific Northwest. Could the "wolfman" sighting actually have been a Bigfoot? The second article was written approximately in 1972. Could this have been the same creature? "It was this Big!" Hairy 'Monster' Hunted

"For everyone that keeps asking for when the paper will be out, please understand that 1) I cannot talk about our data or it will never get published. Those are journal rules. 2) I cannot divulge which journal as that will kill our paper also so speculation is futile. 3) Peer review and publication can take 5 to 26 weeks and then there is the question of revision where they ask you to

Behind Finding Bigfoot

2012-01-02T10:25:00.000-05:00

By now we have all become familiar with the show Finding Bigfoot and the characters on the show. We make fun of Matt saying "I do think there's a Squatch in these woods" and Ranae's yodeling "Yoo Hoo"... we tune in every week because finally researchers are getting some overdue recognition. The show is entertaining, but as with all television productions, there is a lot going on behind the

Good Riddance 2011

2011-12-31T02:57:00.000-05:00

I don't know about you but I hated 2011. Plagued with personal road blocks that you don't really need to hear about, I find that I am all too ready to shake it off and start anew. I've got a few readers who share their thoughts with me, more good than bad, and I appreciate all of the positive feedback and great tips I receive! I just received this doozy from Jill regarding one of my friends,

Finger is NOT of a Yeti

2011-12-27T09:01:00.000-05:00

I am sorry to report that the mystery of a yeti finger taken from Nepal half a century ago has been solved with the help of scientists at Edinburgh Zoo. A DNA sample analyzed by the zoo's genetic expert Dr Rob Ogden has finally revealed the finger's true origins. Following DNA tests it has found to be human bone. A deep breath was exhaled from the Ketchum camp and they are still in the

Salt Fork Bigfoot Captured on Film?

June 12 Follow-Up

2011-12-18T20:27:00.001-05:00

I've been battling pneumonia this past week and it has really brought me down. There is nothing worse than not having the energy to go on an investigation! This past June I shared a story with you all Things That Go Bump in the Night and have had several follow-up conversations with Doc, the witness. If you recall, Doc had a pet billy goat named, Billy who alerted Doc to visitors on his

Sasquatch watchers following Bigfoot blogs for the latest news on their favorite subject

2011-12-18T20:08:00.000-05:00

Last week I was contacted by Sharon Hill of Doubtfulnews.com, to take part in an interview about people who blog about Bigfoot. I was flattered that she considered my blog one of the favorites. I was honored to share the spotlight with Guy Edwards with the Bigfoot Lunch Club and Shawn of Bigfoot Evidence. I know that we will all continue to share Bigfoot related news and events in the best

Reason, Science and Sanity in Bigfoot Research

2011-12-14T14:27:00.002-05:00

A few days ago Steven Streufert added me to this new page he created on Facebook which he called "Coalition for Reason, Science and Sanity in Bigfoot Research. The group is just starting out, and is very small, I believe there are 86 members today. We were having several very nice, intriguing discussions among many threads, the most active one being, "Do you think the government already

Norfork Man Recounts Bigfoot Encounter

2011-12-14T06:02:00.001-05:00

The encounter happened, according to LaBrecque, between 9-10 p.m. near a woodpile behind LaBrecque's home in the Windsor Heights suburb of Des Moines, Iowa. Prior to the altercation, LaBrecque says he observed almost nightly a Bigfoot specimen — about 8 feet tall — that sometimes appeared with two apparently juvenile Bigfoot creatures. Read the entire story here. A closeup look at Clifford

Matt Moneymaker on the Ketchum DNA Project

This comment made by Matt on Cryptomundo has been given it's own thread. Visit Cryptomundo for the full text. Heard from a reliable source connected with an article reviewer for Nature (a major science journal published in the UK) that the Ketchum paper was handed back (i.e. not *rejected*) for several reasons. One of the reasons: The paper “does not contain a testable hypothesis”. Not that

Studysasquatch on YouTube

2011-12-04T09:01:00.000-05:00

There is a researcher in New Mexico who uploads videos of his research on YouTube. I appreciate that his focus is on the research and not on himself! I love this video of something "peeking" into camp at approximately 4:30 a.m. You can see it lower right of center. He also recorded some very convincing howls: Tell me what you think! I hear a small whoop at the end of the howls!
