What are some cryptozoological and or weird creatures that almost no one talks about? I'm looking for things like, the Loveland Frogs, or even more less known ones. Basically I'm looking for new critters to read about.

I found this link. Nothing special, but thought I would post it anyway. It is to do with serpents mainly however.

these coral dwellers known as Salps live in familly chains some species contain red phosphorecens and have been mistaken as sea serpents ..
Also the Heiki Gani crab found off the Japanese Island of Shikoku , appear to have the face of a Samuri warrior on thier shells , and are believed to be the spirits of soldiers who died in battle the of Dun No Ura in 1185. couldn't find a decent picture sorry ..

Here are some of my favorites...
The Ahool- A giant bat-like creature dwelling in the Salek mountains
Dobhar-Chu- The irish "water hound"
Bunyip- Australian lake monster
The Piasa-You could also call it the Thunderbird.
Tatzelwurm- Two legged reptiallian worm in the Alps of Austria and Switzerland.
Mokele-Mbembe- Resembles a long necked dinosaur. It lives in the Jungles of Africa.

I can't think of anymore right now...

What disaster did the Owlman bring since it is one of the things like the Mothman?
Mothman: A bridge in Point Pleasent collapsed
Black Bird of Chernobyl: The Chernobyl explosian
Chinese Man-dragon: Dam collapse
Freiburg Shrieker: A mine in Germany collapsed
Crimean War Monstrosities: cause of the bloodiest battle of the Crimean War
Owlman: ???

i notice all of those concern some very unstable or dangerous place, like a dam, nuclear power plant, bridge, and mine. this could be veiwed as a proof they exist(they hang around dangerous places and bring doom) or a disproof( dangerous places are accident proned, doom bringers are only exuses for tragedy).

i don't know if this fits here, but you guys heard of Andrew Cross, he created life! it's a worm type thing, i read that mary shelley was inpspired by his work! i try to find the link!
The Gollum is another creature , it is said that a rabbi created the gollum out of clay to defend the Jews from their enmaies. the glloum went around eating the enamies and got so big that, but here the story gets foggy, 1 version says that the gollum killed the rabbi that created him and the other says that rabbi took the gollum under his wings and taught him to live among us and eventually died.

It's a Japanese water demon... at least according to legend.
It's head is like a bowl and holds water while it's supposed to have a turtle like body and a beaked face.
I remember reading about them, Kiirin (the Orient's version of the Unicorn) And dragons in story books as a kid.
Gods... amazed I remembered the details for the kappa.
A Kiirin has a horse like body, and a curved gold horn. Instead of fur it's covered with scales. they're supposed to live in the clouds with the dragon, and are more visious than the Unicorns of Europe.
