Definition of Cryptozoology

Cryptozoology is a pseudo-science involving the search for animals whose existence has not been proven. This includes looking for living examples of animals that are considered extinct, such as dinosaurs; animals whose existence lacks physical evidence but which appear in myths, legends, or are reported, such as Bigfoot ,Banshee and Chupacabra  and wild animals dramatically outside their normal geographic ranges, such as phantom cats .. etc

The animals cryptozoologists study are often referred to as cryptids . Many species appear in cryptozoological literature, including mythical and folkloric animals, such as Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster, which have appeared commonly as cultural references, and within tv, movies, and other media.
