Cryptozoology finally gets the treatment it deservesBy Cameron A. McCormickCryptozoology claims to be a lot of things — normally something along the lines of searching for "hidden" or "unexpected" animals — but effectively it's the art of taking anecdotes and even softer evidence way too seriously. For a practice purportedly focused on discovery, cryptozoology is ironically hyper-conservative and tends to rehash the same old information and hypotheses even if they've been shown to be improbable, wrong or fake. While cryptozoology has been stuck in a purgatory-like existence since the 1960's, people eschewing or unaware of that label have been going around discovering new and sometimes large and exciting species, even when initially starting from soft evidence like anecdotes.Just because cryptozoology is (largely) an unintentionally serious study of mythical creatures doesn't make it worthless. The thing is, lots of the cryptids are really compelling. Some of my favorite monsters are cryptozoological creations.

  • Notes on Sources and Monster Historiography
    Notes on Sources and Monster Historiography Those who searched for manlike monsters in the twentieth century— not as metaphors, but as flesh and blood organisms—have gone largely overlooked by academic historians of science. This field, as with cryp- tozoology in general, became the domain of independent amateur chroniclers producing a range of works of varying quality.1 An excel- lent explanation of what cryptozoology attempts to do is found in Chad Arment’s Cryptozoology: Science and Speculation.2 Since the 1960s, scholarly works on anomalous primates, and cryptids in gen- eral, look to place them in the realm of legend and myth: creations of the human mind rather than of evolution.3 These works tend to fall under what Jeffrey Cohen called “monster theory.”4 Works taking an empirical, physical anthropology approach include Gill, Meldrum, and Bindernagel.5 Recent writings have begun to address the lives of the monster hunters, but follow the tradition of focusing on the folkloric and pop culture nature of Bigfoot rather than on the natural history element, and not on the place of cryptozoology in the context of the history of science. This category tends to lean to the exposé or dismissive side.6 Of use to the discussion of monsters in general are scholarly works that attempt to put studies of human monsters into the history of biological systemization and classification.7 A number of methodological issues need to be addressed in the historiography of anomalous primate studies. There are papers col- lections of leading researchers. Grover Krantz, Bernard Heuvelmans, and Ivan Sanderson have accessible materials, as do Carleton Coon and George Agogino.

It is often described as large in size with a long neck and one or more humps protruding from the water. Popular interest and belief in the creature has varied since it was brought to worldwide attention in 1933. Evidence of its existence is anecdotal, with a few disputed photographs and sonar readings. The scientific community regards the Loch Ness Monster as a phenomenon without biological basis, explaining sightings as hoaxes, wishful thinking, and the misidentification of mundane objects.[2] Contents The "surgeon's photograph" of 1934, now known to have been a hoax[1] Name Similar Champ (folklore), Origins creatures Ogopogo, Mokele- History mbembe, Altamaha-ha Saint Columba (565) D.

Kryptozoologie als Legitimationsstrategie im Kreationismus 1 Kryptozoologie als Legitimationsstrategie im Kreationismus Fabian Thunig Einleitung »Of course, the very idea of any dinosaurs still being alive sounds crazy to those who believe the evolution theory. They have been told that dinosaurs died out › millions of years ago‹ and that ›no man has ever seen a dinosaur‹. However, because thousands of dinosaur-like creatures have been reported from remote places throughout the world, there must be something out there! To the Bible believing Christian, the idea of dinosaurs living with man in the past, or even some still living today, is scientifically possible. Christians know that God made all the animals, including dinosaurs, about 6000 years ago.« (Gibbons und Hovind 1999, 34) 1 Dieses Zitat findet sich in Claws, Jaws, and Dinosaurs, dem ersten Buch, das Kreationismus und Kryptozoologie kombiniert.1 Es steht exemplarisch für den Schnittbereich der beiden Fächer: Berichte über mysteriöse Tiere, besonders überlebender Dinosaurier, sollen die junge Schöpfung der Erde beweisen und angebliche Dogmen der Evolutionstheorie ›wissenschaftlich‹ widerlegen.

  • The Disappearance of Arthur Nestor: Parafiction, Cryptozoology, Curation Kirsty Robertson
    98 The Disappearance of Arthur Nestor: Parafiction, Cryptozoology, Curation Kirsty Robertson Abstract This paper considers Beneath the Surface: The Archives of Arthur Nestor, a parafictional exhibition that I curated in 2014 with 16 undergraduate students at Western University, Canada. The exhibition depicted the life of Dr. Arthur Nestor, a professor of Biology who had disappeared from London (ON) in 1975, seemingly without trace. Over the summer of 2014, some of Nestor’s files and artefacts had been discovered during university renovations, and this archive was given to students in Museum Studies to organize and catalogue. As we sorted through the files, it became clear that Dr. Nestor was something of a controversial figure, a man who became an environmental activist in Southwestern Ontario because of his belief that cryptids (lake monsters) lived in Lakes Huron and Erie, and were in need of protection from human-made pollution. As the documents in his file overlapped with our research in the wider sphere, the evidence seemed to suggest that Nestor had left London to join Dr. Roy Mackal, a University of Chicago professor of cryptozoology searching for the Loch Ness Monster. This paper weaves together the tale of Arthur Nestor and the curating of Beneath the Surface with a history of the relationship between natural history museums and cryptozoology, ultimately questioning what parafiction can do in both art galleries and museums. Key words: parafiction, contemporary art, cryptozoology, pedagogy, natural history museums, collecting, collections, British Museum, Loch Ness Monster, Natural History Museum (London) Figure 1.
