When it comes to cryptozoology, everyone has their own personal opinion on what is considered a cryptid and what is not. Some believe the creature in question has to be monstrous in size, terrifying in appearance, and have had numerous sightings and encounters before it can be considered a true cryptid. Others feel that real cryptids are elusive animals that skirt the border between the real and the supernatural, the creatures that never seem to age and are responsible for the same kinds of sightings for well over 100yrs (we’re looking at you Nessie). But then there are the realists, the ones who feel that a cryptid is simply a creature that hasn’t been fully categorized by science and has found itself in the middle of a mystery trying to figure out what it is.
