Basically every sea monster cryptid. There’s so much shit down there we don’t know about. Guarantee many many many of them are over exaggerated yes but there has been more than one case of a sea monster cryptid turning out to actually just be a real creature. Fucks me up
The ocean ones. There’s unknown big critters down there, it’s basically a statistical certainty.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard a believable one on land. People’s UFO and ghost stories can actually be hard to explain sometimes. All the cryptid stories are either very made-up sounding or some variant of “I looked and found nothing/got a super blurry photograph”.

HOBART; An official sighting of the Tasmanian tiger, feared extinct for 48 years, was reported yesterday by the State National Parks and Wildlife Service. The tiger was seen 18 months ago by a ranger in forest country in the northwest of the State, according to the service’s chief wildlife officer, Mr Rod Pierce. Mr Pierce said the ranger had been "parked in his car at night doing some other work when he saw it in his spotlight. “It wasn’t a fleeting glimpse - he had long enough to have a good look at the animal.” Mr Pierce said it was one of a number of good sightings of the tiger over the past few years, but it was the only one by a ranger.
Mr Pierce said the service would not disclose the name of the ranger who made the sighting, nor would it specify the area where it was made. “The tiger must have as much protection as possible.” he said. “We don’t want all sorts of people going out and looking for it.” Rangers have searched along creek banks and through muddy areas looking for footprints. If its general location becomes known, rangers will set up infra-red cameras in the hope of capturing it on film. But Mr Pierce said the search had so far been fruitless and no tracks had been found. “The project will run until the end of summer, and then it will be reviewed,” he said.
