ALIEN ZOO
NEWS FROM THE CRYPTOZOOLOGICAL GARDEN
MICHAEL NEWTON, RIP
This year will assuredly be remembered by cryptozoology as cursed. Following my obituaries for Scott Mardis and Paul Bottriell [], I am sad to announce that yet another major name and longstanding friend of mine in cryptozoology has passed away – Michael Newton, from incurable kidney disease, on 6 September 2021 in Nashville, Indiana, aged 69. We have greatly assisted each other in our respective to me and also by writing the foreword to my book, Michael was an exceptionally prolific author, writing numerous highly acclaimed novels, learned works on a diverse range of non-fiction subjects, and several very notable cryptozoology volumes in addition to his Encyclopedia. His loss is immeasurable, both to cryptozoology and to the literary world in general. The Gang of Fort offer sincerest condolences to his family and friends.
