The legend of Mokele-mbembe. Mokele-mbembe is a cryptid that is said to exist in the Congo River basin of central Africa.
It is described as a large, long-necked, hippopotamus-like creature.
The legend of Mokele-mbembe has been reported by local indigenous populations in the region for centuries.
Descriptions of the creature typically depict it as being 30-50 feet long, with a long, flexible neck, small head, and a large, rounded, hippo-like body.
It is often compared to a sauropod dinosaur, such as Apatosaurus or Brachiosaurus.
There have been numerous expeditions over the years that have attempted to find evidence of Mokele-mbembe, but none have conclusively proven its existence.
Sightings and reported encounters have been documented, but no definitive physical evidence, such as remains or clear photographs, has ever been obtained.
