Others like Scott Mardis who think it may be a Plesiosaur, do so because under certain conditions, it looks like what we might expect a Plesiosaur to look like.

Liz believes that it is a Cetacean because she has recorded similar echolocation data to Beluga Whales …. and thus, it should be a Whale, because as we are told by experts – “only Whales echolocate.”

Ironically, not one of these folks are correct about what it is.

Sociologist Robert Bartholomew, friend of Ben Radford, has written a book about Champ and the gang that study it. My understanding is that the book will focus on the sociological aspects of the phenom, like the researchers themselves and their obsessions with their own theories and uncooperation with other researchers and egos in general etc. Explanations for sightings such as imagination, expectation, misidentification, publicity seeking and the so called cottage industry spawned by the Champ legend are examined. Those Champ-burgers in Port Henry must be making the town rich!

There will however, be a book next year by an independent researcher that will clearly demonstrate for all to see what these animals are, how they live, breathe, eat, reproduce and why no one can find them. A Cryptomundo community member will be the type of person who is going to solve this mystery, not the academics who have continuously ignored data, photos, videos, eyewitness reports (over 300) and presented unimaginative and unresearched “explanations”.
The Champ family is very real, and we will all see the proof soon. In the end, Champ will be the star of this show.

Don’t think I’ve ever encountered anyone in cryptozoology I’d consider stranger.

His theories about Champ disturbed me. It wasn’t so much that there was no science, but his theories were something one might expect from the fantasies of an eight year old. Very weird.
