I love mythology.... you can see where some of the ideas came from when you think Giraffes were originally called Camelopards cos people thoguht that they were a hybrid of camels and leopards.... i'm sure if the ancients had seen a platypus they would have freaked out (possibly more than they did when it was discovered :O lol)
I do like the stories that go with the creatures too though... all the stuff with the minotaur and Theseus etc. â; It would seem the ancients had a knack for coming up with amazing creatures ;â:
i believe in bigfoot. thats pretty much it. it may be a huge fake though. cuz it might be a real rumor that its some guy in a huge gorilla suit with stilts. he also had those things on his feet that are shaped like tennis rackets that like Eskimos use in the snow or sumthin.
i dont believe in myths but i can list some mythical creatures or beings Yeti Bigfoot Mothman Chupacabra ManBearPig(my fave) Giant Squid Minotaurs << >> chuck norris lol
How about tree ents, trolls, centaurs, griffins, hypogriffs, vampires, werewolves, hydras, harpies, banshees, succubi, incubi..
Nymphs, aa-maend, Nykken, nisser, hel-horses... Not to talk about godly or semigodly beings like Sleipnir, Fenrir and Gam. Hippocampi, unicorns, kelpie and pegasi.
The ghostly deer is probably my own favorite, though. A big stag leading hunters to their grave, or a ghostly doe showing you your death.
