LIST OF MYTHICAL CREATURES
A list of mythical creatures can keep you busy for many days. You will find them all over the world. Some fly, others swim; some are small, others are giants; some are human, some are animal and some are a combination of human and animal.Let us look at a few mythical creatures – to make it easy I will divide them into the above three categories: human, animal and human/animal combinations.Ever heard of zombies? They are the living dead and are mythical creatures from Haiti and West Africa. They work for free and must be fed only salt free porridge to keep them in that zombie-like state. Then you get the leprechauns – small male fairies who are well known for their mischief in Ireland. And don't forget the gremlins from America. They are technologically very advanced and like to cause problems e.g. typing errors, flat tyres or problems with hot or cold water especially when you are taking a shower. The cyclops, a Greek mythical creature, was a giant with only one big single eye in his forehead.A list of mythical creatures comprising animals could contain the following: phoenix, Loch Ness monster, bigfoot or yeti and a unicorn. A bigfoot and yeti are not exactly the same mythical creature, but they do have some similarities – they are both big, walk upright and  have been sighted by many people, but has never been captured or found. Bigfoot is well known in North America while the yeti is found in the Himalayan regions of Nepal and Tibet. The phoenix is a mythical Egyptian sacred bird which is immortal, because at the end of its life it builds a nest, sets it afire, burns and then a young phoenix rises from the ashes. Loch Ness in Scotland is a very popular tourist destination due to Nessie – the elusive Loch Ness monster – a large water reptile, which has inspired many memorabilia. And then the unicorn: a horse with a single horn which grows out of its forehead and said to be very particular to drinking. The list of mythical creatures of the human/animal combinations will include the werewolf, tokoloshe, mermaid and the centaur. Werewolves, mermaids and centaurs have inspired many stories and films. The tokoloshe, however may not be all that familiar if you are not from Africa. It is described as a dwarflike, sometimes animal/human combination mischievous spirit which can cause damage if offended. To protect yourself, there is only one way: put your bed on bricks so that he cannot reach you!

Mythical creatures. We all live in the real world, which is subject to its laws and regulations. This gives us the opportunity to build a quiet and measured life. However, according to experts on mythology, and there are parallel worlds that often intersect with our real world, and bring him in secret, mystery and instability.

Many people are skeptical about the existence of list of mythical creatures such as mermaids, snow men, goblins, unicorns and other mysterious creatures. But in the literature to gather a lot of information about these creatures comes down to us from ancient times through the myths, tales, legends, superstitions and just the stories of people close to us. Probably not one family in which the grandparents would not tell them what they saw mythical creatures. Therefore there is an interesting question of all: mythical creatures - it's fiction or reality?

First of all, we must understand blotted words - mythical creatures. Myth is part of the culture of the ancient society. Myth in Greek language means the legend or tradition, when all life on earth considered as a whole, so a person does not oppose a nature, and merges with it. Hence, the animals were endowed with human qualities: they got it, they began to think and act. Conversely, people appeared parts of the body of animals, such as a mermaid - tails, or as a centaur - the hoof.

We can say with certainty that many mythical creatures - is the result of enormous imagination and fantasy of ancient people. However, very often in the media publish articles and the existence of Bigfoot, Chupacabra, mermaids, angels and goblins.

Sasquatch or Bigfoot - the most frequently mentioned in the media a mythical creature. Snowman - it halfmen-prosimians, occurring, according to eyewitnesses, in Siberia, North America and the Himalayas. Bigfoot is different from the average person a strong physique, his long arms and short legs, long lower jaw. Bigfoot, the whole body is covered with black hair, gray or reddish in color. He climbs trees well. Live or in a cave or building a home-nest in the trees.

Prove the existence of Bigfoot has not been nor anyone. However, in Arizona, in Tucson, there is a group of scientists crypto zoologists, who study the unusual creatures and believe in their existence. Their main evidence is the huge footprints, hair, pictures and videos of dubious quality. In Russia in 1987 as a Russian association of crypto zoologists, this is still in effect. In many ways, this society began to develop thanks to the newspaper "Komsomolskaya Pravda", which constantly publishes information and photographs of a snowman. So recently, in February 2010, Komsomolskaya Pravda published an article with photos about Canadian snowman. According to an article from Canada crypto zoologist Randy Brisson sent by colleagues from Russia photograph Canadian yeti. First, Randy Brisson and his son found traces of a snowman. These were the major tracks, about 35 inches, put his bare feet. Then, near Lake Pitt in the Vancouver area snowman stuck his head out of the bushes and was photographed. Randy Brisson and his son claimed that he did not pursue the Yeti, as he began throwing stones at them.
