ROM Researchers Discover More New Species In Vietnam. Quote: "When ROM herpetologist Bob Murphy and entomologist Doug Currie returned to Toronto from the rainforests of Vietnam last month, the results of their field expedition were identical to the last time they ventured into the country's remotest areas: discovery after discovery of new wildlife. A veritable find of never-before-seen snakes, flies, moths and spiders."

The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization
http://www.bfro.net/
Quote: "The mission of the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (BFRO) is multifaceted, but the organization essentially seeks to resolve the mystery surrounding the bigfoot phenomenon, that is, to derive conclusive documentation of the species' existence. This goal is pursued through the proactive collection of empirical data and physical evidence from the field and by means of activities designed to promote an awareness and understanding of the nature and origin of the evidence." |
