1) There are no academic departments of, or academic programs in, cryptozoology at any college or university anywhere in the world.
2) Even if there were, there are no career opportunities specifically in cryptozoology anywhere.
3) Those with a serious interest in cryptozoology may pursue it within the context of some established zoological discipline, such as mammalogy or population ecology, or a social science, such as history or linguistics.
4) It is recommended that any interest in cryptozoology be maintained low key while scholarly studies are pursued, and, also, that cryptozoological issues not dominate one's objective pursuit of knowledge.
5) If an academic or professional career within zoology or some related field is ultimately pursued, it is recommended that an interest in cryptozoology not be allowed to endanger career prospects, particularly through the loss of tenure or promotion. Certainly, cryptozoology is a scientific subject, and should be pursued in a scientific manner, but that does not mean that it is perceived as a scientific endeavor by decision-makers whose knowledge of it is limited or incorrect.
