MESSAGE TO READERS

Can anyone out there give me contact information for Malcolm Smith, cryptozoologist, of Australia?  An e-mail address, telephone number or postal address would be perfectly adequate.  I am also interested in discovering the whereabouts of a former pupil of mine, Maria Hooper, last heard of in Ecuador.  (If she is married, she may now have a different surname.)

ELBST - SWISS LAKE MONSTER

It is said to be found in the Seligsbergsee.  It is said to look like a serpent, to be sacly and to have feet like claws.    This draconic creature had a reputation for coming ashore at night and devouring cattle.  It was said to be able to shapeshift into the form of a spectral horse.  It was supposed to have supernatural qualities and this was belived at least until 1921.  The most recent sighting I know of took place in 1926.

LAKE CHAMPLAIN'S OTHER CRYPTID

Champ, the famous monster reported to lurk in the waters of Lake Champlain, is well known to cryptozoologists.  Samuel de Champlain (1567-1635), after whom the lake is named, never saw this creature.  But he did see another creature unknown to zoologists.  This was the chaosaru.  It was seen by Champlain in 1609.  We are told that it had sharp teeth and was five feet long.
It has been suggested that it might be a gar or sturgeon, unrecognized as such by Champlain.  The sighting took place in 1609.
