Meet the Mbielu-Mbielu-Mbielu - So Good, They Named It Thrice! - ShukerNature

A trio of cryptid reports starting off with an excerpt adapted from Dr. Karl Shuker's book Still In Search Of Prehistoric Survivors: The Creatures That Time Forgot. The namesake of this article is a Congolese aquatic reptile that resembles a stegosaurus, While we can argue that fossil remains give no indication that this dino was a swimmer, who's to say what evolutionary changes have occurred in a creature that may have existed since the late Jurassic period? Next, Nick Redfern discusses the power of liminal areas in Where Strange Creatures Appear: The “Crossroads� Phenomenon. The places that straddle Here and There may in fact be rife with supernatural power we don't understand, and have histories that include dogmen, lizardmen, and deals with the devil. But let's finish off on a somewhat more lighthearted note. Have you ever wondered which cryptid would win a popularity contest? Paul Seaburn checks out the results of a poll by Grunge.com and summarizes with The Mythical Creatures We Wish Really Existed. The list ranges from dangerous (werewolves) to whimsical (unicorns), from mainstream (mermaids) to overdone (vampires again). Readers' comments are as interesting as the list itself, and you don't want to miss an opportunity for an ethical dilemma so be sure to include those in your reading. (CM)
