The Top 100 Cryptozoologists

[emad]

FATE Magazine has commissioned Loren Coleman to do the research, compile, and write the biographies for "The Top 100 Cryptozoologists: The Major Living Personalities Associated with Cryptozoology." You can have input and be part of the project via suggesting those personalities you think should go on the list.

As with the recent list of top 100 Ufologists, the cryptozoologists on the new list must be living, involved in cryptozoology fieldwork, research and writing, and have had a major influence on the field via their thoughts, theories, works, personality, media impact, peer relationships, and discoveries. Cryptozoologists included will be students of various cryptids, including Sea Serpents, Lake Monsters, Yeti, Bigfoot, as well as the lesser known unknown or hidden animals such as the Tsuchinoko, Waitoreke, or the oft-forgotten Tatzelwurm.

Loren Coleman is approaching the list without personal bias, and will include people that may not wish to be in the same room with each other at a Bigfoot, Nessie, or Cryptozoology conference, but who have importance, significance, fame, or infamy in this subfield of zoology. Impact is one of many keys to getting on the list, and such diverse individuals as Mark A. Hall, Peter Byrne, Erik Beckjord, Craig Woolheater, John Kirk, Richard Greenwell, Bobbie Short, Bob Gimlin, Jill Miller, Adrain Shine, Robert Rines, Chad Arment, Mark Chorvinsky, John Lutz, Helen McGinnis, Greg Long, John Green, Jan-Ove Sundberg, John Keel, and Ben Radford are seriously being considered for the list.

If you have any suggested names, please send them along to Loren Coleman, here before August 30, 2005.
