The giant squid and yet undiscovered sea creatures -are the "sea monsters" of old dying out: are they becoming a thing of the past due to pollution, over-fishing of food sources?
 
Have submarine and ships crews encountered true leviathans. According to many 'experts' on these cases "yes" -but what are the facts?
 
Extinct animals at sea that have been re-discovered -a look at Stellar's Sea Cow, whale migrations and mystery aquatic light wheels that seem somehow connected -prey and predator or simple established migration of unknown sea creatures?
 
Sasquatch and other Hominids around the world -does re-evaluation and scientific methodology used in the re-examination of the Patterson-Gimlin footage of "Patty" prove that it/she really WAS an unknown hominid? And just how does science stand deal with these cases -for once the outright skeptics appear to be getting caught out.
 
Two early French UFO entity cases that still baffle are re-examined.  The persons involved gained nothing, even if the profound event changed their lives so are they real -genuine cases?
 
Also ghosts and photographs alleged to be of spectres that are labelled "unsolved", photograph of a strange creatures at the side of a German lake -a Other Dimentional Intelligence or a fake?
 
The Star-Child hoax and other hoaxes said to show evidence of genuine aliens or alien-human hybrids: the facts.

By the 1700s the British fox was on the verge of extinction and about to follow the bear and wolf having been hunted for sport for centuries. 
 
The answer was to import thousands of foxes per year for sport. But foxes kept dying out so jackals were tried. Some were caught, some escaped. Even wolves and coyote were released for hunting. 
 
The summation of over 30 years research by the noted naturalist and former UK police forces exotic wildlife consultant reveals the damnable lie of "pest control" hunting but also reveals the cruelty the animals were subject to and how private menageries as well as travelling shows helped provide the British and Irish countryside with some incredible events such as the 1905 "vampiric" sheep killer of Badminton, the mystery hounds of Cavan, Coyotes of Epping Forest and the Girt Dog of Ennerdale is also dealt with in detail -was it a tiger? A Tasmania Thylacine? This book gives the exact facts and details for the first time.

Up-dated 2013 edition includes a section on sarcoptic mange in foxes and treatment plus a list of wildlife sanctuaries and rescue centres in the UK.
