I met Bill Gibbons, Rob Mullen, and the two cameramen the other day as they stopped by our camp with Pierre. They needed a tent for the expedition, so I loaned them my own. We had been down to the area of the expedition a week and a half earlier, so were able to give a good report about the roads. We have had some unseasonable rain lately, so Dr. Gibbons was a bit more encouraged that sighting may be possible. Small world. They will pass back through to return the tent in a couple of days. I can’t wait to hear the reports.

WOW, so what if they find all the dinos or at least some? That would make world news.

And Dinos will once again be known like when Jurassic Park came out.

Yes! Finally, I’ve been waiting for Monster Quest to do an episode on the mokele mbembe for a while. Heres to hoping that they get photographic evidence of it.

I’d be eager to see if they found anything, but I’m curious as to where to researchers have set the cameras. I had heard at one point or another, a claim that the local natives of the area suspected the cryptid of eating a particular kind of fruit, I don’t remember what and I don’t know how legitimate the claim is (sorry).

I’m stoked! We have reason to be very optimistic about this one: MQ has just gone up in my estimation, by using some credible for once.

Handing out disposable cameras to key locals is one of the best ideas I’ve heard. Send them out, they know what they’re doing.

Broadening this search to include the other cryptids (I’m esp. excited about the ngoubou! If it turns out to be a triceratops or related dino, I’m gonna flip!) is also wise.

My guess is that odds are good on this one, which is great, considering that this is my fave cryptid!

Keep us updated.

I like the idea of distributing the 20 disposable cameras to the native people of the area. There are always so many reports and sightings in areas like this by people who do not have access to cameras, it is a very proactive way to challenge them to bring forth some evidence. I just hope it doesn’t lead to photographic hoaxes, everyone getting excited about photos that are later declared as fake, lol. But time will tell, definitely a good idea and a step in the right direction.
