Originally of [[Persian]] origin, the manticore is still rumored to stalk the [[jungle]]s of central [[Asia]]. Some [[Christian apologetics]] have linked the manticore to various [[fossil]]s usually interpreted as [[dinosaurs]], with the loss of soft tissues decreasing overt semblance to it's original form <ref>Holycross ministries, sermons on Biblical apologetics.</ref>
-The Manticore is also found in many modern works of fiction, ranging from enemy [[monsters]] in [[roleplaying game]]s, to [[comic book]] monsters.
-''The Manticore'' is also the title of a novel by noted [[Canadian]] author [[Robertson Davies]] (1913-1995), the second novel in his "[[Deptford Trilogy]]."
