Who else here likes Cryptozoology? I....LOVE IT!!!!!! Yea, it can get a little creepy at times, but I still think its very interesting. Anybody else think so?

Life is too short to rush through it.

I think it's pretty neat! The only one I see as a possibility is a plesiosaur like the Loch Ness monster, and maybe a yeti lol

I think that Bigfoot is very probable to being year. There's just some thing about the Loch Ness Monster that don't add up.

I went on the Loch Ness last year and am afraid to say I did not see any monster! :D

I was going to say, what cryptozoology meant, but seeing the other posts I get it now. It is very interesting stuff, though mostly very likely myth. :)

I was always fascinated by tales about freakish beings, but I never really believed any of it. But real or not, some of them still scare the heck out of me!

Like the flatwoods monster.
Hey you! What? Expecting a great quote or some heart-warming poem? Too bad, my signature is just boring. Stop reading it. Stop it. Why are you still reading it?

My favourite crypto creatures are Bigfoot and Slender Man.

Ah, yes, cryptozoology - my secret passion. A friend of mine and I are absolutely obsessed with things like this. My personal favourites are the Loch Ness Monster, Cerberus, Jörmungand, Sleipnir, centaurs, and perytons.

Allot of those creatures don't really belong in the Cryptozoology section of research. Allot of them are fiction, just to say. :)

Cryptozoology isn't about creatures from fairytale books (For example, Centaurs are in Narnia and in Greek Mythology).

Cryptozoology can cover myths and legends as well as creatures that have physical "evidence" of their existence, like Sasquatches and so on. So yeah, mythological beasts fit under this category, technically. Some people believe them to be real.
