First published in 1995. It will soon be forty years since the original edition of this work, Sur la piste des bêtes ignorées (1955), appeared in French. With this book, the great adventure of ‘Cryptozoology’, the science of hidden animals, began.

Bernard Heuvelmans (Author), R. Garnett (Translated by)

Part 1 The great days of zoology are not done: there are lost worlds everywhere; Cuvier's rash dictum; survivors from the past. Part 2 The man-faced animals of South-East Asia; Nittaewo, the lost people of Ceylon; Orang-Pendek, the ape-man of Sumatra; the not so abominable snowman. Part 3 The living fossils of Oceania: the surrealist dinosaur of New guinea; the incredible Australian bunyips; the Queensland marsupial tiger; the moa, a fossil that may still thrive; waitoreke, the impossible New Zealand mammal. Part 4 Riddles of the green continent: the Patagonian giant sloth; the giant anaconda and other inland "sea serpents"; apes in green hell. Part 5 The giants of the far North: the mammoth of the Taiga. Part 6 The terrors of Africa: three large pygmies - the forest rhinoceros, the water elephant and the spotted lion; the Nandi bear; Mngwa, the strange one; the little hairy men; the dragon St. George did not kill; Kongamato, the last flying dragon. Part 7 The lesson of the Malagasy ghosts: Tratratratra, vorompatra, etcetera.
