I hear and read cryptid encounter reports daily. There are risks and dangers in the wilderness. Most campers, hikers, and hunters research and respect any wildlife or environmental pitfalls in the area before heading to the location. But how can these people protect themselves from a creature that they are told doesn't exist? An anomalous being that is so abominable that it's difficult for the human mind to comprehend. I'll examine several reports that I have received over the years so that you can develop your rationale for their existence.

The term 'feral people' refers to those isolated from human contact, usually from a young age. These individuals may have had minimal experience with human care, language, or social behaviors. They may also have suffered abuse or trauma before being abandoned or running away. Feral people are sometimes portrayed as having been raised by animals. But is this phenomenon more than a legend? Are there larger populations of these hominins living in isolated areas? Have they developed characteristics that make them less human? Are these individuals the 'wild men' described in folklore and long-told stories? I'll examine several reports that I have received over the years so that you can develop your rationale for their existence.

Hundreds of years ago, European sailors told of a sea monster called the Kraken that could toss ships into the air with its many long arms. But today, science states that aquatic monsters don't exist. There are still underwater Leviathans in the natural world, like whales and giant squid. Scientists estimate that 91 percent of ocean species have yet to be classified and that more than eighty percent of our ocean is unmapped, unobserved, and unexplored. But we constantly receive anecdotal accounts of cryptid creatures showing themselves. In my mind, as well as for many other enthusiasts and researchers, underwater mysteries are still to be found. The aquatic monster encounters and sightings detailed in this presentation offer varied glimpses into the phenomenon.
