One of the world’s most elusive mammals has revealed itself. Footprints and scat belonging to the Visayan spotted deer have been found deep in the Philippines jungle. Less than 300 of the deer are thought to remain, confined to just two islands, making it one of the most vulnerable of all mammals. The discovery proves a small population survives in the wild, despite the ongoing threat to its survival from hunting and deforestation. An expedition [...]

A long forgotten documentary which includes an analysis of a rare film taken by George Adamski, an icon from the early days of the modern age of UFO sightings, has surfaced on YouTube thanks to the effort of historian Neil Gould. The 7 segment YouTube film is well worth watching in its entirety, but a particularly compelling segment discusses a seldom seen film, originally shot by Adamski himself in the presence of Madeline Rotterfor in [...]
Interesting video of unknown lights and what appears to be a lot of helicopters over Horn Lake, south of Memphis (exact location unknown).

Video caption: Around 10:30 a formation of lights sit in the sky as helicopters head for it. And towards the end watch as 3 lights [...]

Australia has now changed the protection levels for the Tasmanian devil, the world’s largest surviving marsupial carnivore, from vulnerable to endangered. The devil population, which is found on the island state of Tasmania, has been decimated by a facial tumour disease. The number of Tasmanian devils in the wild is thought to have fallen by up to 70% since the mid-1990s. The new conservation status will give the animals greater protection under national environment laws. [...]

A new study has shown how Native Americans had sophisticated knowledge of tooth anatomy, which allowed them to perform some remarkable dentistry, adding semiprecious gems to their teeth. The study show how they were adding “bling” to their teeth as far back as 2,500 years ago, probably using a drill-like device with a hard stone such as obsidian, which is capable of puncturing bone and herb based anaesthetic to numb the pain.

Colin Andrews delivered his first punch in New York last month at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, when he disputed the British Governments official statement regards involvement of the Ministry of Defence in crop circle and Ufo research. Andrews showed documentary Evidence from his new book ‘Government Circles’ that they lied and not just once. Punch two came in Washington D.C. onlydays later during a fire storm presentation at the X-Conference where additional indisputable evidence [...]
Forgetomori has an excellent collection of Giant Earthworm photos, and links to many more… plus the Mongolian Deathworm gets a mention!
