Sobre IBD

Varmints is a cryptozoological survey of mystery carnivore folklore (stories and sightings) in North America. Black panthers, maned felines, giant polar bears, dwarf grizzlies, and many more alleged predators have been reported, though most are dismissed out-of-hand by wildlife officials. Cryptozoology researchers and enthusiasts alike will find cases worth exploring, and some tantalizing leads for future investigation.Additional cryptozoology titles available at CoachwhipBooks.com.
