The Mongolian Death Worm

Holy Mother of God! My dream of discovering a prehistoric subterranean species, sensitive to vibrations and hungry for human flesh may, in fact, become a reality.

Check these bad boys out














Mongolian Death Worms

"The Mongolian Death Worm is known to Mongolia’s nomadic tribesmen as the allghoi khorkhoi or ‘intestine worm’ for its resemblance to a sort of living cow’s intestine.. it is said to inhabit the Southern Gobi Desert in Mongolia.

"Its colour is dark red, like blood or salami… It moves in odd ways – either it rolls around or squirms sideways, sweeping its way about. It lives in desolate sand dunes and in the hot valleys of the Gobi desert with saxaul plants underground. It gets out on the ground mainly after the rain, when the ground is wet. It is dangerous, because it can kill people and animals instantly at a range of several metres."

The creature is reported to be able to spray an acid like substance that causes death instantly. It is also claimed that this creature has the ability to kill from a distance with some sort of super charged electrical charge. Numerous Mongolians have reported seeing this creature including a Mongolian Premier. The creature is reported to hibernate during most of the year except for June and July when it becomes active.

It is believed that touching any part of the worm will bring instant death, and its venom supposedly corrodes metal"

If the classic 90's film 'Tremors' staring Kevin Bacon is anything to go by we'll need to pack some decent seismology equipment, strong explosives and 3 sturdy pole-vaulting sticks to outwit these foul creatures.

Either that or hang out on the roof of the local Yurt in our aviators - sizzling the bacon way ...



All the best Kevin!! xx
