Cryptid

Well sweetie, have you ever heard of Bigfoot or Loch Ness Monster? They are animals that people believe exist, but no one has ever really seen them or captured them. These kind of creatures are called cryptids. They are like legends or myths that people talk about, but no one knows for sure if they are real or not. Some people spend a lot of time looking for cryptids and trying to figure out if they really exist, while others think they are just silly stories. So, a cryptid is an animal that some people think exists, but there is no proof that it really does. Does that make sense, honey?
