If you have ever admired the imagination of the director and screenwriter of the "Lord of the Rings" series, then after reading the story below, you might not think so anymore.

That's for you to decide. Perhaps some mysterious creatures are fabricated by people, and perhaps some have been forgotten by evolution. Anyway, welcome to the world of cryptids.
