A replica of the extremely rare Bullyland Deinotherium has joined the International Cryptozoology Museum.
During the search, which sometimes took on an almost metaphoric quest equal to the search for a cryptid, I certainly appreciated images shared by individuals such as boki and radman.
I’d also like to thank William Kofke of Pennsylvania for working out the logistics with me for a fair trade for his Deinotherium, involving certain considerations including, among other things, three unique dinosaur replicas he wanted and an autographed copy of my Tom Slick book.
I shall now officially resign from the Deinotherium-less support group.
One goal achieved and now its onward to search for other rare replicas of extinct mammals representing ethnoknown cryptids for the museum.
The museum now gains a worthy item to share with the public representing allegedly reported cryptids presently being seen in Africa, and a species definitely known in the past.

Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct). Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013.
