Hi Phil,

I'm quite interested in cryptic animals, in particular the thylacine. Regarding 
using film - he's right to do so. It is easier to make a case for the existence 
of a species using film than digital because manipulation of digital
Images is too easy.  

The crypto website didn't break the news; someone posted the press release and 
cryptomundo quoted it.   Others have criticised the avenue of publishing the 
claim, but as a web developer it is common practice to leverage free press 
release sites to gain publicity. 

Cautiously, I'd say hold the judgement until we have the photos and detailed 
back story to evaluate. 

Again, I find the earlier film (2004?) footage encouraging

Cheers

Chris.

whole thing reeks-- develop his film? in 2010?  On a crypto-zoology site?
........ It's not even April 1. Be glad to be wrong but I don't think so
