  1. Cryptozoology A guide to “lost” animals of the world

  2. Intro to Cryptozoology Cryptozoology is the study of “lost” animals. This does not include extinct animals, like dinosaurs or wooly mammoths, unless they have supposedly been seen after they have gone extinct. For example, the Thyalacine, which went extinct in 1936, but was sighted in January 2005 by a German tourist. Famous cryptids include Bigfoot, Nessie, and the Yeti. I have made a rating system for cryptids: 1= hoax.2= leaning toward hoax. 3= not sure. 4= leaning toward real. 5= real.

  3. Water Monsters

  5. Lake Champlain Monster Name: Champ Other Names: none Sighted: Lake Champlain, United States Length: 15 to 30 feet Weight:? Rating: 3

  6. Altamaha-ha Name: Altamaha-ha Other Names: Altie Sighted: Florida and Georgia, United States Length: 15 to 30 feet Weight: 200 to 400 pounds Rating: 4

  14. Emela-Notuka Name: Emela-Notuka Other Names: “killer of elephants” Sighted: Congo, Africa Length:? Weight:? Rating: 3

  15. Conclusion • In conclusion, I think everyone can say that Cryptids are pretty cool, but, are they real? Emela-Notuka is probably just a big rhino, and Kongamato is just a stork. But what about Nessie? That famous photo was proven a hoax! But there is more to explore in the world! We can gather new evidence and disprove some Cryptids, and prove the existence of others. Happy cryptid hunting!
