Daniel Loxton (born 1975) is a Canadian writer, illustrator, and skeptic. He wrote or co-wrote several books including ''Tales of Prehistoric Life,'' a children's science trilogy, and ''Abominable Science!'', a scientific look at cryptozoology. As editor of ''Junior Skeptic'', Loxton writes and illustrates most issues of ''Junior Skeptic'', a children's science section in the Skeptics Society's ''Skeptic'' magazine.
Loxton has written articles for critical thinking publications including ''eSkeptic'', ''Skeptic'', ''Skeptical Briefs'', and the ''Skeptical Inquirer'' as well as contributed cover art to ''Skeptic'', ''Yes'', and ''Free Inquiry''. He also regularly contributes to Skepticblog, a collaboration blog promoting science, critical thinking, and skepticism.
==Early life==
Loxton credits Barry Beyerstein for his interest in skepticism. In several interviews Loxton talks about attending a science fiction conference in British Columbia in 1991 and hearing Beyerstein speak on behalf of the BC Skeptics. "He calmly and kindly fielded questions from the audience—and I was shocked by almost everything he said. This wasn’t the usual fluff: this guy really knew what he was talking about, in a way that I had never encountered before. Even his 'I don’t know's were substantial in a way that I wasn’t used to hearing."
Loxton worked as a professional shepherd in British Columbia on the Canadian side of the Alaska Panhandle.
