Are you legally allowed to keep cryptids as pets?

Am I allowed to keep the lochness monster in my swimming pool or do I need a permit from the city for that?

I accidentally caught one while fishing

They don't want you to know this but cryptids are free. You can take them home with you.

I think they'd probably count as exotic pets, so possibly, but check your local laws first for good measure and remember to file all your paperwork.

Incorrect.

There is a little known loophole where since cryptids are not recognized by the scientific community, there are no laws in place regulating them. However, good luck finding chupacabra food at your local PetSmart lol!

There are no laws against kidnapping a Bigfoot baby and teaching it stupid tricks for money.
