Cryptomundo offers up the Top Ten Cryptozoology Stories of 2009.
My fave, of course, is the Champ video.

Nope, not debunked yet. Every animal common to the area that skeptics have claimed it is has been reasonably discredited by people familiar with the animals. They don't move that slowly or they don't submerge, or they don't have that profile, etc.
It actually resembles the common profile of Champ, which is "horse like" in its neck/head.
I don't know. I think the likelihood of Champ is much greater than that of Nessie, for instance. I would put a "monster" in Loch Ness at like 10. I think Champ maybe 40-55 ???
Although, the echolocation findings are really awesome. That's the best evidence so far. No known creature in Lake Champlain communicates that way. But they recorded something in the Lake communicating that way.
Macy has been reading my "Vermont Monster Guide" book and she's all ready to go with me when it gets warmer up to Burlington and cruise around the Lake with my FlipVideo. :-)

Man, that Champ video is intriguing. I guess it hasn't been debunked? Didn't someone say they thought it was a Moose?
