I doubt the usefulness of Google Earth as a cryptid unting tool since the pictures are only taken once every 2-5 years.
Ever think of an overview of an area one wishes to search or spend time. You find water, different land formations and vegetation let alone a easy entry point for an area to search. Also its a good way to plot a hike to get to an area of interest. You can take the lat and long and program into your GPS and go to the very spot
I find it very helpful though actually getting an image of an animal from it is highly unlikely, its a pricessless aid for anyone out in the field
