Well, I certainly like the word
cryptid in any case! Though the ellipsis slowed me down a bit
And one reaction to all of my above is: "well maybe so, but
after the Ents were invented maybe Tolkien let the earlier Green Dragon discussion stay as was, to suggest an Ent/wife, 'cause tales about cryptids can grow in the telling."
