Phantom Cats, Thunderbirds, Owlman and Chupacabras: since the beginning of time, these and other mystifying creatures have appeared in tales from around the world. And every year, more and more people report new sightings. Meet some of the most fascinating mythical monsters from the sea and the sky, from snowy mountains to tropical jungles. Wandering across these pages is an amazing menagerie of strange apes, like Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yeti and Yowie; serpents from the oceans and lakes, including the legendary Nessie; things with wings that just might be flying dinosaurs; feline creatures; giant turtles and other big and unusual beasts. In addition to a history of each remarkable animal, there's speculation on the truth behind the legend.
