The hunt for Mokele-mbembe: Congo's #LochNessMonster #WeirdScience
On December 27, 2011, the BBC's Cordelia Hebblethwaite had her article about the Congo's Loch Ness Monster, Mokele-mbembe, published. This is awesome. Scotland (Loch Ness Monster) and New York/Vermont (Lake Champlain's Champ) are not the onlt bodies of water with a monster. From her article:
"The search for Scotland's Loch Ness Monster is world famous. Far less well-known is the hunt for a similar creature, Mokele-mbembe, which is reputed to live in the remote north of Congo-Brazzaville. But how strong is the evidence?"
Is it aggressive? The articel also says this:
"Despite being a herbivore, it is said to roar aggressively if approached by humans. Some say it has a single horn, which it uses to kill elephants."
Jump over to the BBC site read the entire article. There is a drawing, maps, pictures, but sadly no pictures of the beast.
