VeldWatch Academy is an independent research platform for cryptozoology and unexplained phenomena.
Cryptozoology.
The study of hidden animals.
For centuries, people across the world have reported encounters with creatures that science says should not exist. Massive primates moving through remote forests. Unknown creatures beneath dark water. Winged beings seen before disaster. And perhaps most disturbing of all... towering bipedal canine entities standing silently at the edge of the wilderness.
Most of these reports are dismissed.
Some are hoaxes.
Some are misidentifications.
And some remain unexplained.
This course is not about blind belief. It is not about treating every shadow in the forest like a monster waiting to pounce. Fear is easy. Serious investigation is difficult.
Real cryptid research requires skepticism, discipline, pattern analysis, and the willingness to examine evidence honestly, even when the answers are uncertain.
At VeldWatch Academy, our investigation of cryptid entities reported across North America, Europe, Africa, and beyond. Creatures described with startling consistency by witnesses separated by geography, culture, and time.
Explore the wider world of cryptozoology: Bigfoot, lake monsters, anomalous predators, folklore entities, eyewitness psychology, environmental evidence, and the ongoing conflict between mainstream science and the unexplained.
Throughout this courses, you will learn how to approach cryptid reports critically and professionally. Not as a thrill seeker. Not as a blind believer. But as an investigator willing to follow evidence wherever it leads.
Because whether these creatures are undiscovered animals, psychological phenomena, cultural archetypes, or something stranger entirely...
The mystery itself is real.
And somewhere, in forests, mountains, wetlands, and forgotten places across the world... people are still seeing something.
Welcome to VeldWatch Academy.
Your investigation begins now.

Iratus Lupum : Cryptid Researcher
My personal Project is Project "VeldWolf"
I go by the name is Iratus Lupum.
I’m a passionate cryptid researcher and enthusiast with over 20 years of experience exploring the world of the unexplained.
I have a certification in zoology, which allows me to mix scientific knowledge and critical thinking with my deep fascination for cryptids.
I created my courses because I saw a significant gap in the field. Very few programs teach people how to properly investigate cryptid sightings.
My approach isn’t about believing every report without question. Instead, I focus on careful debriefing, evidence analysis, research methods, and distinguishing real possibilities from hoaxes and misidentifications.
While I’m interested in all cryptids, my greatest passion is for canid cryptids, particularly the Dogman.
There’s something about these intelligent, powerful, and elusive beings that keeps driving my research and fieldwork.
I’m based in Cape Town, South Africa, where I continue my investigations and studies. If you’re tired of surface-level content and want to develop real research skills, I invite you to join me on this journey.
Together, we can become serious, level-headed cryptid researchers who are always curious, questioning, and searching for the truth.
