description: Bigfoot Nessie and mermaids: what do these cryptids share in common? No matter how doubtful we are of their existence a part of us persists in asking Could they be real? With a skeptical tone this title tracks the most popular cryptozoological creatures from their mythological origins to modern attempts to prove their existence. Scientific explanations-including archaeological records and alleged physical evidence-are presented and assessed. Regardless of their veracity the place these beasts hold in television movies and books is a cherished one and it merits a thorough investigation.
