Educate yourself with a Beginner’s Guide To Cryptozooology from the Grant Museum of Zoology

The Grant Museum of Zoology is hosting a free talk that aims to introduce Beginners to Cryptozooology.

How do you search for an animal that has never been seen? Are there mysterious beasts roaming our moors? How can you tell superstition from reality?

Jonathan Downes and Richard Freeman, Director and Zoological Director of the Centre for Fortean Zoology will discuss what cryptozoology is and how it is studied. They will give fascinating highlights of their many expeditions in search of hidden animals like the Mongolian Deathworm, the Mexican goat-sucker and the Loch Ness Monster.

Following the talk, join the speakers for a free glass of wine in a private view of the Museum.

This fantastic free event is taking place on Tuesday, May 20th, 2008, from 6pm; there is no need to book so just turn up and enjoy!

Loren Coleman About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct). Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015. Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
