Bigfoot, Sea Serpents, and Cryptozoology October 29, 2008

Could hair samples be used to verify the existence of Bigfoot? Are unexplained animal droppings evidence of a new species? Do footprints hold the key to unlocking the mystery of the yeti? World-renowned cryptozoologist Loren Coleman has spent decades researching the existence of fantastical creatures and interviewing witnesses who have sighted sea serpents, lake monsters, Sasquatch, thunderbirds, and yet-to-be-verified animals. Join us to explore the science behind these mythic beings.

Loren Coleman is the author of several books, including The Field Guide to Bigfoot, Yeti, and Other Mysterious Primates Worldwide and Cryptozoology A-Z: The Encyclopedia of Loch Monsters, Sasquatch, Chupacabras, and Other Authentic Mysteries of Nature. A book signing will follow the program.

This program is free thanks to the generosity of the Lowell Institute. Seating is limited. Seating passes are available to the general public in the Museum lobby beginning at 5:45 pm the evening of the program. First come, first served.
