I think I'd like to see a mermaid. :) Maybe they're one of the most popular mysterious creature out there. They're being used in some movies, and oh, Disney even has their own mermaid. ^^ So I think it'll be pretty great if someone could prove this mysterious creatures.

I received an email not long ago about someone seeing dead mermaid and took pictures of it. I still think it's a hoax and also, I'd like someone to catch something alive.

I would like to see a dragon, one of the Chinese dragons of mythology - it represents power, excellence, and striving for goals and radiates good luck and prosperity!

And I might even get my bread toasted :)

I would like to see Bigfoot / Sasquatch / Yeti in captivity.

I'm a party pooper I know...

But I'd rather not see any creature captured and in captivity.

Ah what a cage does to an animal. You can actually watch them fade away and die right there in the cage, and still be breathing. It's the most horrific thing you will ever see. Well, at least it was to me.

Mysterious creatures would be worse because chances are if they are around they are rare. Makes little sense to take them from the wild and take away the one chance they may have of mating.

So.. my choice is.. humanity. I would like to see humanity in captivity. :P

I have always believed that fairy tales and urban legends are based upon some type of real fact. Vampires, zombies, and werewolves or fairies, dragons, and unicorns are things talked about all around the globe in every country. I do not think that someone somewhere had the ability to travel to every place and seed the thoughts of these mystical and or magical creatures. So where did the ideas come from?
So, in light of this thinking, I would love to know that preparing for a zombie invasion is not out of the question. Or keeping garlic and a cross around right beside the silver bullets isn't too far fetched. I would also like to think when something comes up missing the fairies and elves will bring it back just when I need it most.
As for proving whether they do exist or not, I would prefer not knowing because someone somewhere will think we have an obligation to reform zombie health care or monitor the flight of a drunken fairy and make unicorns only eat organic grasses. Let them mystify us with strange glimpses out of the corner of our eyes. Let them co-exist silently outside the boundaries of our realm. Allow them to remain the stuff dreams, movies, and awesome books are made of and not become something we become disappointed in when we find their powers are not as great as we had hoped.

I would not want to see any of them in captivity. I would like to see them in their natural habitat though and see real footage of them or see them in person.

On the other hand part of their charm is the magic and mystery that surrounds them. Sometimes it is better to believe in the possibility, the hope than to know for sure. Knowing our penchant as humans for exploring things to death, maybe it is better they are never found for sure.

Nessie or Sasquatch would be my choices though. I suppose because there have been so many stories, legends, even movies and books that mention or feature them that they have become a real possibility in people's minds.

We may be an intelligent life form as humans but it would be nice to know these elusive creatures really existed and had eluded us for so long. If they do and they have, it is humbling.

Canada has a protected area called "Sasquatch Provincial Park".

The California Department of Fish and Game called vocal recordings used to attract Sasquatch "wildlife harassment".

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers called Bigfoot a native species.

When all three were pressed for more information they all called their respective statements a joke. It is interesting that officially they acknowledge the existence of Bigfoot/Sasquatch and yet when cornered about it they claim they were joking. It does make me wonder what they aren't telling us.

In Scotland, Nessie is legend. Tourism has sprung up around the legend of The Loch Ness Monster. I think it would be great to see her all by myself, no one to prove it to, no one around, no photos, just to know I had.

One of my favourite t-shirts had some people around the shores of Loch Ness putting fake Nessie footprints on the shore line. The caption under the drawing read,"Preparing for tourist season on the shores of Loch Ness". This is not the same one but it is similar enough to make me chuckle too.

Even with the gest though the idea that she is really up there has a mystical quality about it.

I wouldn't want any of them in captivity though.

Not sure if I am reading this right, but;

I'd like to see a Mermaid alive - not in a cage - of course if possible - may be in a natural surrounding.

Mermaids I believe are a lovely creature to watch and be with :)

Hey, are mermaids mythical? naah, they're out there ;)

I would like to get to the bottom of mystery and at least or a short time have the "el ojo en la Mano" come live with me for a short time (that's captivity right?) I actually would enjoy the entire cast of mystical creatures from "El Laberinto del Fauno" from Guillermo del Toro to visit but if I had to choose one it would be this one.



I wonder is the "eye in the hand" man will be as disturbing at my dinner table or would he(it?) fit right in. I cant wait to find out. A favorite author of mine Kahlil Gibran has even touched on the mysterious subject of "eye in hand" and I would love to learn more about it directly from the source. "el ojo en la Mano" is welcome at my dinner table anytime.



For those of you who missed the movie have a look at this video, this scene from Pan's Labyrinth is a suspenseful chase scene for the main character... does she get away?

As a child of the Rockies, it was always great fun to tell visitors about the mythical creatures that live there. I told stories of, but never saw, the mysterious jackalope and fur-bearing trout.

Obviously, some of them ahve been caught on film. And they have been known to stampede: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://students.washington.edu/johng365/fit100/project1b/rabbit111c.jpg&imgrefurl=http://students.washington.edu/johng365/fit100/project1b/project1b.html&usg=__O26KWJ94DH39KtCJAVuEQbm8t0A=&h=768&w=1024&sz=155&hl=en&start=8&sig2=X91YDfnhbpSzoMZvkZLN0Q&tbnid=wV2tZOMXIZGvvM:&tbnh=113&tbnw=150&prev=/images%3Fq%3Djackalope%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den&ei=EED4SpXtHJGEMdmc8OgF

The fur-bearing trout is loess dangerous than the jackalope (no antlers) and highly prized for its soft fur, though making fur coats of them leaves you smelling rather fishy.

personally, i wouldn't like to see any in captivity. that might break them and they wouldn't be what they once were. they would have been wild and free, not a care in the world. if we put one in captivity, they wouldn't be as free as they once were. instead, they would hide from fear of being caught and having tests taken on them.

Being Creek and living in Oklahoma, you hear a lot of stories and legends that have been passed down from generation to generation amongst tribal members and families. For people that live here and have grown up here, there is an interwoven sense of culture that is shared amongst tribal members and others.

There are a number of these creatures that I would like to see, and there are plenty of people around here that swear that they really exist. I myself have sworn that there are owls around here that haunt me and cannot possibly be animal-figures. There are no pictures of any of these creatures, but taking pictures of them is considered to be really bad luck. (Who would dare take that chance?)

One of the most popular stories of Creek lore, is the legend of Este-kenes (sta-ginny), which many people believe is not a myth at all. Este-kenes are reportedly witches who have taken over the bodies of Great Horned Owls. In some cases, they have reached as tall as four to five feet in height, can cast spells on anyone who crosses their path, and cannot be killed except by well-experienced medicine men.



Another is the story of the Tie-Snake, which some people say is a woman in the body of a snake that lives underwater. She is a very strong snake with alluring powers that will catch you and drag you underwater.



The story of the Little People was originally a Cherokeestory, but has been adopted by many other tribes as well. It is believed that little people who live deep in the woods are actually kind and are helpers to the rest of us, but they do not like to be disturbed in their homes, and will cast a spell on anyone who wanders close to them.



Creek people are known and have been known historically for their story-telling ability, and many Creek people today who have been brought up traditionally continue to do so, passing down stories that have survived hundreds of years from generation to generation. While there are plenty of people who believe these stories, these were mainly told to children in an attempt to get them to behave, and served more as a moral lesson than anything. The story "Brer Rabbit" is one of the oldest of these stories which originated from the Creek culture. Creek stories have also had an impact on African-American lore in the Southeastern US as well, where the Muskoke Creek tribe inhabited prior to Indian Removal and the Trail of Tears.

As you probably guessed, I would like to see a Beer. Not the kind that I see every day in my fridge, but one of the legendary Beers said to dwell near Boonville in the Anderson Valley in California.
Here is a photo of the valley:

The Beer is too legendary a creature to be caught in a photograph; but, paintings of the Beer exist and some can be found on the labels of its Anderson Valley Brewing namesakes.

I would like to see a Plesiosaur. It is actually a dinosaur, but it's widely believed that the Loch Ness Monster is a Plesiosaur or family of them that has lived in the under water caves around the loch. With access to the ocean and plenty of caves to hide in and fish to eat, it is a plausible idea.

Mammoth

mainly because I read they could extract sperm from a frozen corpse of one that died hundreds of years ago and use the cells to impregnate an elephant to bread a half mammoth / half elephant.
