Are there undiscovered large species of animals (e.g., sea monsters, Bigfoot)?

    The deep ocean remains largely unexplored, but no solid evidence supports cryptid claims. Scientists discover new species every year, especially in remote or deep-sea environments. However, no scientific proof has been found to support the existence of famous cryptids like Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, or giant sea creatures beyond known marine life.

    The ocean is vast, with over 80% still unexplored, meaning there could be large unknown marine species. However, despite sonar scans, deep-sea expeditions, and underwater research, no gigantic sea monsters beyond known species like giant squids or deep-sea sharks have been discovered.

    On land, creatures like Bigfoot or the Yeti are often reported, but no bones, DNA, or reliable evidence has ever confirmed their existence. Most sightings are likely misidentified animals, folklore, or hoaxes.

    While history has shown that large creatures can remain undiscovered for long periods—like the coelacanth, a prehistoric fish thought to be extinct—scientists believe it is unlikely that massive, mysterious land or sea creatures could exist without leaving clear evidence.
