West African Coelacanths? - Cryptozoo News

In an interesting approach to the discovery of a species thought long extinct, Loren Coleman suggests that there exist hints in West African art that point to the continued existence of the Coelacanth. Further, Coleman states "Searching for a new species of coelacanth (in the genus Latimeria) may involve conducting detective work, ethnographically, in West African art." Referencing historical Benin art, we may well note references to an Atlantic colony of Coelacanths. It's not an outlandish possibility, considering Loch Ness may be home to an prehistoric aquatic creature. (CM)
