Expert Interview Progress Post

For the expert interview, I have a couple of ideas that are intriguing to me. First one is a tad bit out there but I’m hoping I’ll be able to do it: someone from the International Cryptozoology Museum. For those who don’t know, cryptozoology is the study of animals that have not yet been proven to exist. What this means in reality is that it’s stuff like Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster. I would need to research cryptids a good deal more before being able to ask truly informed questions. I would like to ask them about how cryptids can be seen as modern folklore and how that interacts with their approach to the field. This type of thing would be found online from various sources as well as potentially books if someone has taken to look into this more.

The second idea I have is a lot safer. I know someone who is currently working as an occupational therapist. I would need to do a great deal of research regarding what being an OT entails which I would mostly be using the internet for help on that.
