I think that cryptozoology is very similar to folklore firstly because these cryptids have been in stories for decades, as well as the stories about cryptids conform in a group of people who all have their own stories or who already believe and don't need to be persaudeed

most evidence for cryptids is circumstantial and doesn't provide much actual information. Much of the evidence is random people seeing it at night or by themselves.

I think cryptozoology is defined as pseudoscience because it is something not everyone believes and have not been 100% proven so therefore they are only theories that scientists would call scientific theories

I think a lot of cryptozoology is tied to folklore. It helps bring culture and interest to a place where many may have none and helps the people of that place tie themselves to a cultural identity.

I think most define cryptozoology as pseudoscience because there is no proof that these cryptids exist.

# data[].attributes.headline
Cryptozoology is mostly defined as a pseudoscience due to the fact that evidence is poor and limited.  Also, many of these creates seem to be so out of our known realm of possibility that makes the everyday person think that something like Bigfoot could not be real.

As some folks already mentioned. Cryptozoology is not the easiest thing to prove and frankly lacks any amount of concrete and substantial evidence in order for someone to definitively say, "that exists."

The first time I heard about cryptids was in 3rd grade when my mom mentioned Bigfoot while on a walk with my dog. I remember just immediately accepting it as fact for a couple years before hearing another opinion on the matter

I feel much of cryptozoology's origin comes from Folklore. An example being the Native American tribes baring warnings of the Wendigo and Skinwalkers. Striking fear and foreboding in those who listened. This tradition carries down through word of mouth until eventually the belief is strong enough to create something real in peoples minds.

My first cultural exposure to cryptids was when kids in my elementary school class in New Mexico would tell me scary stories of things like La Llorona or wendigos.
