Galaxy/misidentification Galaxy below
Treat all objects that do not reflect light
As partners who recognize me
My rough surface does not glow with any light
Even my heart
Darkness is my best friend
Until you carry the rocket

When the skeleton was first described, the tracheal cartiliage was misidentified as a dorsal (=on-the-back) fringe, which you can see in CR Knight's reconstructions of Tylosaurus in the 1899 paper & accompanying FR221 on display (& 's P15144!)

Not only is this stupid because the whole point of acting is pretending to be someone you're not, but given the character's origin story they've once again misidentified a tan.

Dino Fact:

Chirostenotes (Narrow Handed) is an oviraptorid from Late Cretaceous Canada. It's had an odd history, with its feet being misidentified as a new ornithomimid and named Macrophalangia and its beak mistaken for a bird's and named Caenagnathus.

Roderick Kingsley is the Hobgoblin and I'm sick of seeing this awesome villain be misidentified as Ned Leeds.

It was just a stupid plot twist in an otherwise cool story that focused too heavily on the "mystery." https://t.co/yxe5xPbdWu

Friendtober/Monstober Owl+Long Limbs
A lot of so called "cryptid" sightings turn out to be misidentified owls. So next time you see eyes shining in the dark, or hear strange noises from the treetops, remember that it's most likely a common owl.

Long overdue hatchling page for Hellbaskers.
Self sufficient upon birth, nestlings can be encountered on their own throughout the desert. The lack of the bright colors and horns of adults leads many to misidentify them, leading to unfortunate surprises among exotic pet owners.

Continuing with my digital art, here is a demon oc of mine. His name is Stolas. In traditional demonology Stolas is depicted as an owl, the mothman was also a misidentified owl, therefore, Stolas is a mothman.
He is 250 cm tall, Chaotic Evil, and collects garbage.

Someday I'll get around to that post on high-finned sperm whales, and how they're the result of mistranslations, misidentifications, and overall taxonomic confusion.

I've been thinking about making a documentary on cryptozoology. One thing I find interesting is what can be misidentified as a paranormal creature. For instance I'm pretty sure Dogman is a bear with mange, and sea serpents are just whale penises.

out swim them speed wise. Also for the question "where do we get these ideas from?" Probably from misidentifying already existing animals, from sightings or fossils.
My favourite example of this is with the elasmotherium spawning the unicorn legend
