Bigfoot Track

The photo comes to us from Tabatha Steagall. It, along with other tracks, were found in her garden back on June 15, 2013. The location was Carter County, KY.

Here is what she told me about the event.

"My family was working in the garden. My Dad had plowed between potatoes and then we were planting other stuff like corn and beans up above the row where the print was found.
We got done planting and had to build a fence with yarn and garbage bags to keep the deer out. My dad left to work in hay, my Mom & me went to get more bags at her house,and my sister and my husband and the kids went to my house to get water to drink.
When we got back my 6 yr old ran to the end of the garden to beat us all there. He started screaming that he found a bigfoot print, we thought he was joking or mistaken. Until we got out there and seen it, he had bent down and knocked some dirt into it, but not much at all. I couldn't believe it, I seen it, but I was really searching my brain for what else it could be. We looked around and found four or five in all, but that was the best one(Pictured above).
I measured one and it was 15 inches long. The others were in places we had been working all day, but this one was in the row plowed that no one went back to.
There is no way it was a person, the only way in or out is to pass my house and my sister and husband would have seen someone go in. We were only gone for 20 or 30 minutes at the most.
I have no other explanation for it, believe me I have racked my brain. I don't even think I truly believed it until about 7 pm that evening when I got on line to compare it to other tracks and seen that circle in my print kind of looks like the ball of the foot. Then I pretty much knew what it had to be.
People say its faked, I really like to hear that because that means we found a good print. I'm not going to swear that I know 100% that its a bigfoot print, but I'm 100% positive that its not faked or made by my family in the garden that day. I even made everyone put there shoes in the dirt to check their foot prints and they sure didn't look like whats in the picture LOL!"

Over the years there has been many reports from Carter county, KY and it appears it is still an active area.
A special thanks goes out to Tabatha for sharing her photo and story with us and allowing us to share it with our readers.

Anyone else who has anything to share about bigfoot, ghost or UFOs please contact me via email (thecryptocrew@kih.net) or on facebook.

Thanks

Not Actual Photo

A couple days ago I got an unconfirmed report out of Virginia from a local man who over heard some bigfoot talk at the Back of the Dragon event. If you are not familiar with this event, it takes place in the town of Tazwell, VA and goes to the town of Marion. Thousands of motorcycle and sport car fans gather there for the annual event, where the 32 mile ride event takes place. People from all over come and enjoy the sports cars, music and food.

Well, it seems that during the 32 mile ride, one of the drivers saw something large and hairy run across the road in front of his car.
The best I can remember the driver was complaining that it was dangerous, as the cars go pretty fast and wanted to know what it was or what the purpose of it was. I'm thinking he thought it was staged.
Well the people who host the event had no idea what he was talking about and basically told him it was nothing that they had done.

Now I hear that this drive may have gotten a video of this possible bigfoot as well, but like I said I have not been able to officially confirm the sighting. I do trust the source who told me what he had over heard but it seems this possible sighting was not taken down or reported to any other officials or sources. It would be a shame if it was totally lost.
I do know that this area has numerous bigfoot reports, so it could very well be true.

So If anyone has any knowledge of this possible sighting, feel free to contact me.

Here is a video of the event to kind of let you know what it's about.



Thanks
~Tom~

Glow in the dark Cockroach discovered in 2013

According to a recent study that was deemed the most accurate ever, there has been only about a quarter of the total number of species discovered on earth. Lets take a look at some of the suggested numbers while we keep in mine our many wonderful unconfirmed cryptids.

Mammals - The number of confirmed species discovered is 5,501 with an estimated undiscovered number at 200. Mammals are vertebrates, which means they have a backbone or spine. All mammals have hair on their bodies at some point and produce milk to feed their babies.

Birds - The number of confirmed species is 10,064 with an estimated undiscovered number at 500. Birds are also vertebrates, have feathers and lay eggs.

Reptiles - The number of confirmed species is 9,547 with an estimated undiscovered number at 2,500. Reptiles are also vertebrates, covered in scales and have lungs for breathing.

Amphibians - Confirmed species is 6,771 with an estimated undiscovered number at 8,200. Amphibians are vertebrates, breather through their skin and go through metamorphosis. Recently a new frog was discovered and it is the worlds smallest frog measuring in at only 1/4 of an inch long.

Fish - The confirmed number of species is 32,400 with an estimated undiscovered number at 12,500.

Crustaceans - The confirmed number of species is 47,000 with an estimated undiscovered number of 100,000. The larger grouping for crustaceans is Arthropods. All insect fall into this section and all are invertebrates, meaning they do not have a backbone or skeleton but a exoskeleton.

Mollusks - The confirmed species number is 85,000 with an estimated undiscovered number of  115,000. Mollusks are invertebrates. Examples are clams, snails and slugs.

Arachnids - The confirmed species number is 102,248 with an estimated undiscovered number of 500,000. Of course this is one of my least favorite things ....ugh spiders. Arachnids fall under the Arthropods section. Examples include spiders, ticks, and mites.

I should also mention Insects with a confirmed 1 million and 4 million estimated undiscovered. Some of these of course are really small but they are numerous.

Recent Discoveries


Lesula Monkey was well known to the locals but new to science.
The monkey has "human like" eyes and greets each dawn with a
loud shout. Discovered in the Congo. It is estimated that about 80
percent of the Congo is unexplored.





The Glow in the dark Cockroach, featured at the top of this post, is also called "lightening roach". It was discovered in early 2013.
Another rather new discovery is the Leaf Chameleon. It was discovered in the jungles of Madagascar in February 2012 and is one of the world's smallest known reptiles.


So with all the estimated undiscovered species one would assume all we have to do is wait and at some point, some of our favorite hidden creatures will be discovered.  The field of cryptozoology has helped in the past to prove some discoveries in days gone by, so maybe one of our fellow researchers will hit the mark again.

Thanks

Bigfoot!

This report comes from a long time friend and former school mate of mine, June Neal. The above picture and the following report comes from the Beans Fork area in Bell county, Kentucky.

June and her husband Scott went to get corn out of their garden and when they got there six rows of corn was uprooted and the corn all ate. June told me "It was in about 7 or 8 piles after it was ate of cleaned cobs. Our squash and pumpkins got gone too. Our garden looked like a tornado had been through it."  This all happened in one night and the eaten corn cobs were left in neat little piles.

According to June there were several more tracks but the one pictured above was the best. The size of the track was larger and wider than her son's shoe and he wears a size 13.  June told me it was about 3 inches longer than her son's shoe and it had 5 toes, so that would make this track around 16 inches.

She also told me that they had heard strange loud yells off in the distance several times as well. Others from the area have also confirmed hearing these yells

This event took place in August of 2011.

Of course people always point to things like this as being a bear but in my opinion there is just no way it can be. I mean a bear eating corn and stacking up the cobs in neat piles? I don't think so. The story is also backed up by multiple witnesses to the strange yelling sounds. Plus me knowing June for most of my life I know she would not make something like this up.

Here is a general map of the area


Beans Fork Area

A special thanks to June and Scott for allowing us to share the photo and story. I should also mention the couple no longer live in the area or state.

If anyone from the Beans Fork area has had a similar experience please contact me.

Thanks

Bigfoot Track in KY

This is a report from Letcher County, Kentucky.

-Start BFRO Report -

YEAR: 2010
SEASON: Spring
MONTH: March
DATE: 03/26/2010
NEAREST TOWN: Deane
NEAREST ROAD: Highway 7
OBSERVED: Me and another person was walking up a hollow below a hollowfill. The area was very marshy as beavers have been damming up the streams. We came upon an area where the stream split in two. There was a large rock on the "island" and next to it we found an odd looking impression in the mud. It was approximately 14 inches in length and roughly twice as wide as my steel toe boot. I have three photographs of it. One photo shows my boot next to it. I'm not sure if what I saw is anything. But the photos clearly show what looks to me like toes but I could just be wanting to see more than what is actually there. If you want copies of the photos, let me know.
OTHER WITNESSES: 1, we were walking up the stream bed.
OTHER STORIES: There have been other reports in the area. Some though are a bit questionable.
TIME AND CONDITIONS: Early morning, sunny, clear
ENVIRONMENT: The area was kind of a marsh due to beavers working in the area. We were in a hollow.
Follow-up investigation report by BFRO Investigator Don Adkins:

"I spoke with the witness on two separate occasions about his track find. The location where the tracks were found is in a remote area at a natural gas well-drilling site. The area is rough terrain with a heavy forest and many coal mining sites. He emailed me the photos, and I found them to be very interesting. The witness has also heard calls similiar to internet recordings of sasquatch in the past and has reported them to us. This area is close to where Report #26036 occurred."

- End BFRO Report -

The main reason I wanted to share the BFRO report was because I recently got a report from Letcher county from Randy. You can read Randy's account by Clicking Here.  Randy also has a facebook site, found Here, for people in and around Letcher county. Over the past few weeks I have became pretty good friends with Randy and with us both being in Kentucky, we'd like to see more people come forward from this area and tell of their sightings.  Bigfoot is seen pretty often in KY, but many people are reluctant to talk about it for fear of being made fun of. I know I get this pretty often from some of our local people, but that's ok it does not change the fact of what I've seen and found.

Over the past few months I have seen my skeptical father turn into a believer, but he had his own personal sighting, found Here, and I think that is what it will take to convince some people that bigfoot is a real creature, their own personal sighting. My dad told me the other day that I had ruined him and he told me he can't get out in the mountains now without looking for bigfoot signs and tracks.

Anyways, If you have had a bigfoot sighting and would like to report it please contact us. There is a link at the top of the page or send us an email at thecryptocrew@kih.net.  We can change your name or just leave it out.

Bigfoot?

Well, while waiting for my Windows 8 upgrade to download today, I was surfing the web and ran across the above photo. I could tell the photo is a fake and the bigfoot in the photo is just a reversed cropped image of Patty from the Roger Patterson footage. I continued on to the article to see if someone was trying to pass this off as real and sure enough it seems that way.

Here is the "report" the came with the photo:
"This Wednesday I was behind my house in Jefferson Hills near Jefferson Hospital going hunting like I usually do on Wednesdays, and as I was walking to my treestand, i heard a bunch of large branches and sticks cracking and making noise. I proceeded to look around from where the loud noises were comming from and I started to hear some loud ape like noise comming from around 40 yards away. The closer I got I got a good look at the large animal which looked like Bigfoot, or Hominid-like creature. I quickly rushed to get a picture with my phone. I believe that the animal was bigfoot. At first i was in disbelief of what I saw because i truely dont believe in a big foot but i looked closer at the photos and am positive that it is no creature that i have seen like it, not even a bear.

It is just beyond me why this photo and story is even attempted to be passed off as real or maybe it's a satire site and I just didn't see the declaimer.

I wonder, do people do this just to try and get on TV? or is it just for kicks and giggles?

Well, whatever the reason I just wanted to bring it to peoples attention that a new fake report is being made.
It seems like when an obvious fake is presented there is always a few who want to fight and argue that it is real. We waste a lot of time debating fake videos and photos, which takes away from possible real videos and photos.

It's a vicious cycle sometimes.

Thanks

Big Muddy Monster

This image above is the original artist rendering of "Big Muddy Monster", but I took a little time to colorize the image to give it a little life. I do not know who the original artist was so I do not know who to credit.

The story of Big Muddy Monster is a pretty interesting one and it leads me to believe the sightings were of our big hairy friend, Bigfoot.

Alien in the graveyard?

Alien Captured on Video in Cemetary?

This was shot in 2005 but very little is known about the footage. I personally think it is a total fake and the music is just horrible. The actual location where this video was shot is also unknown.
The video quality is pretty terrible but I still found some entertainment in the short video and wanted to share it.

Goblin

For many years now the above goblin photo has been presented in various places on the Internet. The goblin in a cave picture is thought to be real by some people and I'll have to admit it looks really good.

Now the rest of the story. This is actually a plaster display in a tourist place called Cheddar Show Caves & Gorge. It is located in Somerset, England. Cheddar Showcaves is a tourist attraction which contains an attraction called "Crystal Quest." Crystal Quest is a dark cave full of odd carvings that are intermittently lit by strobe lights.



Fake Goblin

"Regarding that photo of the goblin. I went to Cheddar Gorge (UK) and caves today. That critter is in fact a sculpture in an attraction here called Crystal Quest. Just thought you'd be interested to hear this!" – Rondette
That is not to say that the caves are not mysterious, check out the info below:

Cheddar Gorge
Cheddar Gorge is a limestone gorge in the Mendip Hills, near the village of Cheddar in Somerset, England. The gorge is the site of the Cheddar show caves, where Britain's oldest complete human skeleton, Cheddar Man, estimated to be over 9,000 years old, was found in 1903. Older remains from the Upper Late Palaeolithic era (12,000–13,000 years ago) have been found. The caves, produced by the activity of an underground river, contain stalactites and stalagmites.
Cheddar Gorge, including the caves and other attractions, has become a tourist destination. In a 2005 poll of Radio Times readers, following its appearance on the 2005 television program Seven Natural Wonders, Cheddar Gorge was named as the second greatest natural wonder in Britain, surpassed only by Dan yr Ogof caves. The gorge attracts about 500,000 visitors per year.


Some, I suppose, will still cling to this photo as real but as you can clearly see it is not. The sculpture is fantastic and realistic looking but it for sure is not a living creature. Does this mean there are no such creatures at all? I say no just because a lot of our planet has not really been explored, especially caves and who knows for sure what's really out there. About 80 percent of the Congo has not been explored and new creatures are discovered all the time, nothing maybe as wild as a goblin, but who knows it may be next!


Thanks
~Tom~

What is this strange creature?

[Again, I really don't know who to credit this story to but will list sources at the end of the post.]

This strange looking creature was found near a farm in Mexico by two garbage collectors.
The unknown creature was said to be around 4 inches long and appeared to be mummified humanoid of some sort. The creature appears to have an elongated head, arms, legs and a possible tail.

This story gets a bit more bizarre as Miguel de la Torre, the leader of a UFO research group in Mexico, confirms that his group had registered the findings of three other similar creatures.

It was reported that the creature was packed in a way to prevent it from deteriorating and sent to a lab for analysis. If the results have been published I did not find them. This photo and incident is now over a year old, so either the results were nothing unusual, being suppressed or I just didn't find them.

After this story got out, some of the locals in the area thought that this could be a fetus from a Chupacabra. It is my guess, with this being found near a farm, that it is a known farm animal. But what about the other similar creatures found by the UFO group? This I have no idea about.

I also wonder why a UFO group is involved in an unknown animal case, does that seems odd to anyone else? Shouldn't fish and wildlife have been called before a UFO research group?

Well, in any case here is a slightly enhanced version of the above photo.

Chupacabra Fetus?

Big Cat in MI

The above photo comes to us from Tom Thomas, after noticing something was getting into his bird feeder and bending over a metal pole, Tom set up a game cam. There had also been some odd noises around his house.

Tom's game cam captured the photo above of what appears to be a big cat, while this may not be what was getting into the bird feeder, it is an odd catch. This was taken in St. Clair county, MI.
Michigan is no stranger to big cat reports, just this past August there was reports from the Northeast side of Detroit.

In St. Clair county there has been 10 reported big cat sightings according to Michigancougar.com with a couple of the reports saying it was a black cougar. In total, according to the website, there has been over 1,800 reports of cougar incidents reported in the state of Michigan.

Here is an enhancement of Tom's photo


Black Cougar?

Mr. Thomas guess the height from the ground to the top of the head to be about 16 inches.  
What do you think? could this be a black cougar in Michigan?
A special thanks to Tom Thomas for letting us share the photo.

Thanks
~Tom~
