Heuvelmans wrote two books that I read a while back. "In the Wake of the Sea Serpents" and "On the Track of Unknown Animals." Both of these stoked my young person interest (subsequent to my reading of Gardner Soule's "The Maybe Monsters," "The Mystery Monsters," and "Trail of the Abomniable Snowman").

I cannot say for certain if any alleged cryptid will be actually discovered by science and catalogued, but I can hope. (I am an optimist--that there are further large creatures (and small) still waiting to be identified and catalogued by scientists.)

There are some of these claims for sea creatures that I find intriguing. Long-necked (excess of six feet in the neck) pinnipeds; claimed archaeocete-type critters; re-discovery of potential Steller's Sea Cow survivals; and so on.
