Cryptids - animals not officially recognized by science - have been a mainstay in popular culture for decades. However, the interest in these creatures - Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster - has largely excluded creatures from Asia and Oceania. The Cryptids of Asia and Oceania brings these lesser-known cryptids and many questions to the forefront Does a giant snake lurk on a mountain in Japan? Did Sri Lankan tribes drive a race of apes to extinction? Does the Tasmanian tiger still roam in remote forests? Just how many Sasquatch variations exist worldwide? The Cryptids of Asia and Oceania recounts historical folklore and accounts while including scientific knowledge on the possibility, or impossibility, of these creatures.
