I'm quite curious to see the results to this.

          Witches aren’t mythic they’ve existed forever and are quite numerous.

            Two different kinds of witches, the women who practice witchcraft, Wicca, or Pagan , we usually call shamans or medicine women.
            But there are mythic witches like Baba Yaga that aren’t human

              In my experience women who practice witchcraft, wicca or pagan, almost invariably call themselves witches.

              The second kind of witch you're describing would more accurately be called a hag.

            • What about spiritual advisors? I think they belong in the latter category.

    There’s one that lives down at the water treatment plant over in Maddington, about a half hour drive from here. She’s old though

    What's your concept of a mermaid... Then I might be able to answer your question.

    Yes, she's a singer in a rock group.

    No, but they could exist. After all, we know more about space, then we do about our own oceans.

    There are videos of mermaids supposedly damaging underwater communication cables, hanging around oil rigs and attacking remote controlled submarines, but the lack of evidence and blur does make me question those videos and dismiss them as just a scheme to get attention. But I do not dismiss mermaids themselves. Intelligent life could thrive in the oceans, far away from us humans.

      "Intelligent life could thrive in the oceans, far away from us humans."

      That reminds me of the crack about dolphins: "If they're so damned intelligent and have such amazing hearing, why the hell do they let themselves get caught in fishing nets that are being dragged around by huge, noisy boats?"

      I'm convinced that most most of the pseudo-scientific claims about unknown large animals are BS, but I suppose it is just possible that there might be intelligent species in the ocean that are unknown to us because they've always been very good at avoiding any contact with humans. The oceans are huge, and the search for MH370 highlighted just how much of places like the southern Indian Ocean isn't known at all to science, and rarely crossed by ships. Still, you'd think carcasses of such species would occasionally wash up on beaches, although I suppose the absence of such evidence could be explained away by the hypothetical species having death rituals that resulted in the bodies sinking into the abyss.
