Re: General Cryptid Topic
Anyone ever hear about Cryptozoologicon? Its a book where it depicts cryptids and other mythological creatures if they were real animals.
Some notable examples.
Chupacabra as a species of possum that feeds on blood.
Gambo as a marine species of monotreme.
Mbielu-Mbielu-Mbielu as a species of lungfish.
There's also fanart.
Arica Monster: A species of lizard that evolved bipedalism
Dover Demon: A species of prosimian.
Gowrow: A large relative of the gila monster.
J'ba Fofi: A species of large terrestrial crab.
Ningen: A gigantic species of sea turtle closely related to the leatherback turtle.
Being fascinated with the concept. I decided to do a few ideas of mine.
Akhlut: A sole survivor and separate species resembling an aquatic wolf-like cetacean that branched off of whales from the same ancestor. (Given whales evolved from wolf-like ancestors it retains some of these traits and features).
Dobhar-chú: A large species of otter. Among the biggest with the giant otter and sea otter.
Ozark Howler: A bear-like cat.
If anyone is interested.

Re: General Cryptid Topic
I have! It's a dope book.
I love how it's not just "oh, here's an alternate explanation" but examining what the myths actually say and finding an animal that actually explains those features

Re: General Cryptid Topic
I really want to get it. On my Amazon list as we speak. I'd especially love for more volumes to be made so more cryptids and mythical creatures can be tackled.
Also, another ideal one came to mind. I would picture Trunko being a larger species of elephant seal.
Added in 11 days 17 hours 18 minutes 13 seconds:
What do you guys think of these if we were to take from cryptozoologicon?
Altamaha-ha: A species of long-neck freshwater seal.
Mahama: A species of crocodile, possibly descended from crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni.
Tatzelwurm: A species of large lizard/salamander with only two front legs. It has a facial structure that would resemble the ears of a cat.
Yowie: A species of marsupial that has hominid/primate traits through convergent evolution.

Last night at 11:05, i watched the cryptid episode of The UnXplained with William Shatner. The MDW/Olgoi-Khorkhoi might have entered my top 5 cryptids.

.The "Row" could have been made a meiolaniid instead of a normal if odd tortoise, explaining the horns and tail spikes (which Conway committed from his art)
.Opossum eyes shine red, not green, meaning they could have made the Chupacabra closer to the myth and creepier in the artwork
and your deficiency as a cryptozoologist shows. Everyone knows that the Iemisch is larger than the Dobhar-Chu!

Also, I recently got a copy of Roy Mackal's "Searching For Hidden Animals". Used of course. It was an interesting read, and then I found a signature left b Roy Mackal on the inside of the cover!

References to the 'Jersey Devil' do not appear in newspapers or other printed material until the twentieth century. The first major flap came in 1909. It is from these sightings that the popular image of the creature—batlike wings, horse head, claws, and general air of a dragon—became standardized."

If we go the Cryptozoolicon route. The Lemisch could also be another of the largest species of otters is this hypothetical world.
Another Cryptozoologicon idea.

Re: General Cryptid Topic
Its been a while now but I've been really getting into speculative evolution regarding cryptozoology and mythology thanks to the book called Cryptozoologicon where it hypothetically imagines a world where cryptids exist but as real animals.
Some examples. Gambo being a marine monotreme, kelpie being a northern large aquatic chevrotain, dingonek as an aquatic saber-toothed cat, mbielu-mbielu-mbielu as a species of lungfish that evolved "plates".
Here's some I came up with on my own and already shared but some of them in better detail this time. Spoiled to avoid taking up most of the thread.

Claims of what is said to be fresh stool of Australia's Bigfoot aka the Yowie.

Well no, no animal off the top of my head would destroy a termite mound just to defecate on it after...'Whatever did this decided to break the termite mound and poo on it. No animal I know off would/could do that,' the group member wrote.

Re: General Cryptid Topic
Another cryptid I envision as a real animal in the hypothetical world of Cryptozoologicon.
This time. The Burrunjor.
As you may know. Australia used to be home to meat-eating kangaroos and kangaroos have somewhat of a theropod-like stance. In the world of Cryptozoologicon, a member of those species survived becoming what would be the burrunjor.
Either that or a carnivorous marsupial that evolved a body structure similar to that of a theropod.

I have to say, this is probably the most convincing Big Foot video I've ever seen
https://youtu.be/mvYLovp5isw

All houses have the same. Roof. Floor. Walls. People yelling at you that they're calling the police because you broke into their house. It's only when you give them love that they truly become Home
