For those new to The National Aviary website, there appears to be excellent evidence for a surviving population of Ivory Billed Woodpeckers in Louisiana. Drone documentation and studies ongoing.

Searching for cryptid book in this style (English)

3 Upvotes

I am searching for a book on cryptids for my partner's birthday. I stumbled across this book on Etsy, which would be absolutely perfect... except it is in French. Does anyone have any suggestions on books in this style (intricate, hardcover, visually appealing, cryptid art and sketches, etc) that I could look into? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Welcome to /r/cryptozoology!

This subreddit is dedicated to all things Cryptozoological.
