Description

Learn how to find Kraken, Mothman, Microbats, and more in this fun, factfilled, STEMbased cryptozoology book for fans of The Book of Mythical Beasts and Magical Creatures.For years the kraken was considered a mythical beast. Then, in 2004, hightech cameras captured a photo of a living giant squid. Advances in technology have provided scientists with new tools to study previously undiscovered/unresearched habitats hightech cameras, forensic analysis, underwater robots, bioacoustics, infrared sensors, drones, remote control photography and measurement tools, airborne DNA, footprint identification, and more.Catching Cryptids explores these technological advances in a fun way by pairing them with mythical creatures and discussing how modern technology could be used to locate or "catch" these beasts. The book includes a mini history of each cryptid, along with interesting facts about the corresponding field of science, and spot illustrations throughout.Featuring over 45 creatures found on land, in water, and among the skies, Catching Cryptids will leave readers wondering whats next? The phoenix? Dragons? The possibilities are endless!
