Mokole mbembe is alleged to be a dinosaur-like creature currently living in Africa. Some cryptozoologists believe that such a creature exists. This belief has originated from the reports of the Bantu tribesmen, pygmies and other natives living in parts of Cameroon and Congo. These people report sightings of long-necked, water-dwelling animals of gigantic sizes that occasionally kill people without provocation. Some scholars suppose that the creature might be a type of dinosaur that could have survived the mass extinction of the dinosaurs that is believed to have occurred about 65 million years ago. So far, scientists have failed to find a reliable evidence for the existence of a creature corresponding to the native legend. According to other reports, a South American variant might exist, as well.
