*'''Keep''' Why is Eberhart's [https://www.torrossa.com/en/resources/an/5548038 book] not reliable? It was published by [[Bloomsbury Publishing]] and cited 88 times, according to Google Scholar. And what is wrong with the sources included in it? Other sources that cover the subject are [https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Cryptozoology-A-To-Z/Loren-Coleman/9780684856025 Cryptozoology A to Z] and [https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/distributed/S/bo27432612.html Swamp: Nature and Culture]. Both are cited in Google Scholar, so they are reliable per [[WP:USEBYOTHERS]]. [[User:Kelob2678|Kelob2678]] ([[User talk:Kelob2678|talk]]) 21:51, 21 April 2026 (UTC) |

*:The problem with Eberhart and Coleman is that they're fringe sources written by cryptozoologists. In order to write a balanced article, we would need sources that represent the mainstream point of view.
