About the creator
A passion project of a single individual
I'm a UK based wildlife biology student who's had an interest in cryptozoology since a very young age. However, I've never entertained any stories that lack good evidence. I aspire for cryptozoology to one day leave the pseudoscience category through proper scientific methodology. While almost all cryptids (an animal which has not been proven to exist) are mostly fictional such as the North-American Bigfoot and Loch-Ness Monster, the Japanese Wolf is a completely different story. Due to the evidence supporting its survival, I've decided to dedicate my life to studying the animal and hopefully rediscovering the species.
I recently visited Japan and got to see many specimens of Japanese Wolf ranging from skulls, pelts and full taxidermies. Seeing these artifacts fully cemented in my mind how truly unique the wolves are in comparison to other wolf species. It also presented me with many more questions than I had arrived with which I hope to solve in the future. In the meantime, I will be adding to and maintaining this library until I'm finally able to contribute more.
