Monsters en Mythen in de Cryptozoologie
 

Enige tijd geleden hadden we een uiterst amusante maar ook interessante discussie omtrend het bestaan van wezens als Bigfoot en The Jersey Devil.

Ik nodig iedereen weer uit om hun oordeel te vellen over het bestaan van de volgende wezens door bewijzen, verhalen en meningen;

Bigfoot, Loch Ness, Mothman, De Loys Ape, Bunyips, Sasquatch, The Exmoor Beast, Sea Serpents, The Loveland Frog, Sea Serpents, Yeti, Monster of Martin Mere, Chupacabra.

Als je er nog meer kent, voeg ze toe!

Je vergeet de "dodeworm" van de Gobi-woestijn...

Mongolian Death Worm - I was reading about something called the Mongolian Death Worm, a creature that supposedly lives in the Gobi desert and shoots corrosive poison or electricity at its victims. What do you know about it? - Scott

Legend has it that a worm-like creature dubbed Allghoi khorkhoi, also known as the Mongolian Death Worm, lives in the desolate sands of Asia's Gobi desert. According to stories the creature is about two to four feet in length and looks a bit like a cow's intestine (In fact the name Allghoi khorkhoi means "intestine worm"). It is apparently greatly feared among the people of Mongolia and it can supposedly shoot a stream of extremely corrosive poison at its victim from a great distance. Supposedly the animal can kill a man, a horse, even a camel without a much effort.

Several westerners have attempted to find the "Death Worm," but so far it has evaded capture and examination by scientists. If the creature does exists it is most likely not a worm. Because of the desert's great heat and dry climate true worms have a difficult time surviving there. Czech author Ivan Mackerle, who went looking for the worm, suspects it may actually be some kind of lizard like a slink or a worm lizard, but neither of these creatures can shoot poison. The animal that seems most likely to fit the description of the death worm is a snake called the death adder. This snake is a member of the cobra family and sprays its venom. Death adders live only Australia and New Guinea, however, so if the "death worm" is really a snake, it is probably a completely unknown species.

Some have suggested that the creature makes its attack on its victim by shocking them with an electrical charge (like the electric eel). Such a offensive scheme seems unlikely to work very well in the air, however.

En nog wat andere [minder bekende] creaturen zijn:

The Mokele Mbeme, The Tasman Sea Devil, The Thylacine en The Beast of Gevaudan

En je vergeet de "Dover-Demon."

En je vergeet KI-Fighter :p lol
