About

Chasing Discovery seeks to understand the researchers who delve into the zoological unknown. The cryptozoologists featured have devoted decades to researching undiscovered animals, and are among the foremost researchers in the field. Many scientists have deemed cryptozoology a pseudoscience and a poor use of time, but these researchers are unfazed.

The financial sacrifices that they have made have allowed the research to continue, but even the world’s leading cryptozoologist struggles to pay the rent each month.

Chasing Discovery takes a unique approach towards cryptozoology, turning the cameras on the researchers themselves rather than focusing on the animals they study. It is the story of unyielding passion in a field of uncertainty. Individual character biographies are available below.
