Why is it so hard to get evidence,I mean enough evidence to make science believe that there are things such as big foot or lochness?I mean we find new species everyday,why can't we find something that has been a legend for years?

Well actualy we can. Giant Squid and Big cats in the U.K. were concidered legends when I was a kid. And that wasn't that long ago.

So do you think we can prove if bigfoot and lochness are real?!?!

I can think of two possibilities why evidence is so hard to obtain:
1 - They're extremely illusive.
2 - They don't exist.
Personally, I'd like to see the existence of Bigfoot or Nessie being confirmed by irrefutable proof.

Loch Ness, is indeed real, as for the monster that's supposed to live there, I think if it ever did exsist, it's dead.
And as for bigfoot, I am sure that we will one day find a few different primate species, that could have been mistaken for Big Foot.

Agreed. Perhaps a realtive Giganto-whatsitsname.

I think the only real crypt is bigfoot, and if we keep looking i am sure we will find one!

I wouldn't be surprised if BF was found to exist.
Also, I think there is more of a possibility for sea (not lake) cryptids to exist. The oceans are so vast and unexplored that it would be very easy for an unknown form of life to avoid detection, especially if its domain is in the great depths.
Then again, I also like MST3K.

There is evidence, you just need to prove it. Of course it's hard to get people to believe, why? Because nobody these days stand a chance to just listen, or even, it's hard to believe because they're have been so many false proofs.

WTF???
So what you're say is that it's better to be an 18th century dumbass, who had no modern technology to prove the existence of cryptids, and therefore, blindly believed in folklore and superstitious tales?
I've heard of being retro, but man, let's hope you never require modern medical techniques to diagnosis or treat a serious illness.
Then again, I've heard that the use of leaches is making a come back...

I think he was talking about modern people who believe in all kinds of crazy stuff with hardly any evidence, making it harder to take real mysteries seriously.

Scientists find new species in deep wilderness areas, such as remote mountain terrain and rainforests, all the time.
Mostly they are creature such as bugs and birds. Often an animal thought extinct will resurface, such as the Ivory-billed Woodpecker rediscovered in eastern Arkansas.
Occasionally, they find a large mammal species, such as Sao La (Pseudoryx nghetinhensis), a large deer discovered in remote Southeast Asia.

Look at it this way how long did people believe the earth was flat? or the sun revolved around the earth? those things were once mysteries to people that considered themselves very advanced and knowledgeable. Just because we have proven those things to be wrong doesn't mean that we can figure out everything

We always think that we are advanced enough to find out anything anywhere. Someday maybe we will be but for now they are mysteries take that for what it is and someday one way or another.....I say just relax and enjoy

When people graduate from college, they assume that they then know everything there is to know of the subjects they have taken. That is because they study under professors who pretty much
claim to know all there is to know about the subject being studied.
