For our next African critter, we come to the Congo, the most <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_Republic_of_the_Congo">cursed land of modern times.</a> But the tale of the two Congolese republics is a story for another time. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mokele-mbembe">Mokele-Mbembe</a> is a creature from Congolese Folklore that is described as being like an <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apatosaurus">Apatosaurus</a> by Western Explorers and as a Half-Dragon, Half-Elephant creature by the natives. Although a vegetarian, the Mokele-Mbembe was highly territorial and was known to regularly kill the hell-pigs known as Hippos that strolled into it's territory. According to the Aka, a tribe of pygmies native to the area, the Mokele-Mbembe used to be a real creature, but went extinct sometime around 2006. So we possibly had real-life dinosaurs, but they're all dead now. Nothing good ever happens in the Congo. Never.

What is Cryptid Lost Media? Youtube: Truth is Scarier than Fiction A cryptid is best defined as an animal that science doesn't recognize as currently existing. Cryptid lost media (CLM) and cryptid lost evidence is evidence of a cryptid's existence that can't be located. Something can still be lost if it's been partially released or if it's location is known, but it hasn't been released to the public. Is CLM ✔ • Lost Photo Thunderbird photo • Jhoor photo Adamsfield thylacine photos 2007 moa photographs A photograph supposedly showing a cryptid. The thunderbird photo, which is purported to show a large unidentified bird or flying reptile, is a lost cryptid photo. Lost Video • McRae Tape Bodette Affolter Film Spiny-backed chimpanzee footage A video supposedly showing a cryptid. The lost McRae tape, allegedly depicting a large unidentified animal in Loch Ness, is a lost cryptid video. Lost Audio Mapinguari audio Enfield horror audio Deepstar 4000 audio Audio allegedly capturing the sound of a cryptid, or the audio of an encounter with a cryptid.

Is not CLMX Dead Cryptids Mapinguari Bodies Globsters A cryptid reportedly being found dead/killed doesn't necessarily mean that there's lost evidence related to it. Unless the cryptid was said to be preserved in some way, it's not lost evidence since it no longer exists.
