International Cryptozoology Museum
Portland, Maine
There are tons of museums dedicated to the creatures that inhabit the Earth — but what about the ones that live only in fables, tall tales, and suspect sightings? As it turns out, they have a museum, too. The International Cryptozoology Museum claims to be the only museum in the world dedicated to animals whose existence has not yet been proven. Bigfoot, the Yeti, the Loch Ness Monster, and even jackalopes are represented by exhibits of varying size, featuring everything from historic relics to modern toys. Be sure to keep an eye out for the museum's founder Loren Coleman, a man of science who's personal collection constitutes the bulk of what you'll find within. [via]
