Texas Bigfoot Spotlighted
Posted by: Loren Coleman on January 9th, 2008
The blog the Paranormal Insider has a nice overview of The Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy, founded by Craig Woolheater.
It is always good to see the great work done by Craig highlighted, as his almost annual conferences are quite enjoyable to attend.
Texas does have some of the most attractive, fun-loving people on Earth.
Large groups of like-minded folks gather in Jefferson, Texas, often to exchange insightful thoughts on the region’s Bigfoot.

And of course there’s the old fingernails-on-chalkboard connection of an unlisted primate species to “the paranormal.”
[sigh] guess you take positives anywhere you can get them in this biz.
DWA ~ Infrasound? Instant fear generation? Night vision? IR vision? Disappearing trackways? Silent passage thru thickets?
What does it take to justify the “para-normal” appellation?
I also have concerns about linking cryptids to the “paranormal”. Obviously, we are assuming cryptids are simply unclassified, generally and scientifically unknown, flesh and blood animals.This is mundane and far from the notions of the “paranormal”, which are usually super-naturalistic and/or extra-sensory in content and belief.
On the other hand: (in)famous cryptids such as Bigfoot and Nessie share a common element with “paranormal” entities, such as ghosts, space aliens, fairies, etc. They are often “sighted” and/or “believed in”, but never verified. They become cultural entities without or before verification.
