Questions related to Vampires
I would appreciate if anyone could suggest a bestiary that presents classic monsters, such as vampires, witches (as evil - or not - mythical creatures), arachnids monsters etc., and/or mythical creatures from different cultures, times and religions, as well as from Literature and pop culture. It must have scientific backing or, at least, be consolidated.
Thank you in advance!
Many of us are now using cameratrapping all over the forests, for many purposes. Most of time, we all collect (I guess) an extraordinary amount of informations what are out of our scopes. But what could be usefull for someone somewhere ... Related to my experience in French Guiana, I'm thinking about a Monodelphis making a nest, a 45 min long sequence of 8 bushdogs bathing, grooming, a vampire "running" after a Priodontes, a baby Myrmecophaga digging with his mother .. among many others, all sleeping in computers.
Is there any webplatform that could allow to share those "moments of cryptic life" ? A journal where we could depose such thousands of anecdotal behaviors ?
Maybe something to propose, create ?
Suggestions and comments welcome !
I have searched about the REVIEW database but I can't find it for download. besides, The vampire dataset is not a public database. So, I had sent vampire non-commercial license to use the annotation tool. But they didn’t answer.
could anybody send me the datasets?
Vampire bats can flourish on a diet of blood only. Although TE-Thrust (Horizontal Transfer of Transposable Elements) is involved, their specialised microbiome is also a big factor in their ability to flourish soley on such a simple and nutrient deficient diet.

We can see how, in the last 20 years or so, some traditional horror myths are changing their essential features. Perhaps, the best example is the vampire, who is becoming a sympatethic figure.
