Abstract | Dragons and sea monsters have always excited peoples imagination, but with the progress of science they eventually landed where their true place is-in fairy tales and legends. Did they really? You can still find people who believe there is a monster hiding in the Scottish Loch Ness and that a strange human like being tramples the snowy slopes of the Himalayas. Science dealing with unknown animals is called cryptozoology and in the following article we shall have a look at what the cryptozoologists are looking for and whether what they are doing bears any significance at all. | |
