The world’s only cryptozoology museum, the International Cryptozoology Museum celebrates “cryptozoology” which is the quest to discover hidden creatures, from elusive cougars to the famously mysterious Bigfoot.

Exhibits at this fascinating museum include an 8-foot tall Bigfoot made of musk ox hair, the Jersey Devil, the Mothman, various lake monsters, and the Abominable Yeti. The museum is also home to displays of unusual animals known as “cryptids” that were only recently recognized as being “real” such as the Komodo dragon, the panda, and the coelacanth.

Inspiring curiosity for visitors of all ages, the museum is kocated in downtown Portland and is open every day, except Tuesdays.
