I Would be Happy to Find a Cryptid

If I could find a cryptid I would be happy, Matt, the zoologist said.
Like big foot, or the giant Ethiopian lizard, with the red head.
What is a cryptid? I asked, feeling pretty unscientific now.
It’s like big foot or Nessie, an animal quite unlike a cow.

Something only a few people have seen, but no one has documented.
love to find something like the devil monkey, even though demented.
Or a sea serpent, a speckled jaguar, or the elephant dung-bat.
I would become known in the world that would be terrific said Matt.
