io9 Offers $2000 Bounty For Authentic Photos Of Cryptids


What a sweet deal! This summer, io9 is going cryptozoological. They are offering a $2000 bounty to the person who sends them the best authentic photo or video of a "cryptid," or mystery animal.

Here's details on how to enter the summer of cryptid love contest:

The Bounty

io9 will be offering a $2000 bounty for the best photographic or video evidence of a genuine cryptid. In August, we will invite our panel of experts, including zoologists, the team behind excellent cryptid blog Cryptomundo, cryptid expert Loren Coleman, and a photoshop analyst, to judge which pictures are the most authentic. We'll give the bounty to the one that they judge to be the most mysterious yet authentic creature.

How to enter:
Send the picture as a .jpg attached to an email explaining where you took the photo, what you saw, and how the cryptid behaved. If you have a video, we prefer .mov files. Please include your full name and a way we can contact you. Do NOT send photos or video that you didn't personally take. Mail your photo or video to cryptidsummer@io9.com. Deadline to submit is August 5, midnight PST.

Note: We want pictures of living cryptids – no killing or capturing them! If you find a dead cryptid, you may use that picture. But our judges will vastly prefer living ones.
