Cryptozoology is the investigation of animals not yet recognized by science, but whose existence is hinted at by eye witness accounts, photos, or traces.

However, initially, I intend to provide a service of translating into English a number of foreign language accounts from around the world.

Anything not found in these is assumed to have been overlooked by previous researchers. So here goes.
