A name that means "one who stops the flow of water," the mokele-mbembe is a large sauropod dinosaur found in the thickest of jungles. Occasionally responsible for attacking them, locals both fear and respect these massive herbivores and are normally quick to turn away and leave them to their business. The great creatures are normally not violent though are not too keen on being approached. |
