I'm actually really interested in cryptids, too! I'm moreso fascinated by what's beneath our oceans. Like, what kind of creatures are lurking in the depths (other than the ones we already know of)? Is it true that there are creatures that are lurking so deep underwater that we haven't found yet that are like, millions and millions of years old? It sounds crazy but it can actually be true!
Okay, I'm actually really scared of the ocean because of this sort of LOL. When you can't see the bottom you can't know there isn't something right below you? Okay, maybe you can, it's more of an irrational thought I have.
I'm more interested in larger animals instead of smaller bacteria at the bottom of the ocean. I think they're still pretty cool, but it would be so awesome to find more stuff that totally makes us rethink the ocean.
