====== Cryptids ====== Cryptids, or Cryptozoological specimens, are animals that are not currently classified due to a lack of scientific data. In some instances, these might be creatures whose existence is not confirmed, such as the Loch Ness Monster. In other cases, they might be creatures that are widely believed to be extinct but with circumstantial or folkloric evidence suggesting otherwise. Some stories from diverse parts of the earth talk of supernatural beings. Scientists largely dismiss such claims, but dedicated cryptozoologists draw strength from such examples as the now widely known existence of such species as the Mountain Gorilla, once considered a cryptid itself. {{tag>conspiracy}}
