The first reference about these creatures appear in the book Professor Roy Chapman Andrews (1926), On the Trail of Ancient Man. Even so, he was not entirely convinced by the stories he heard at a gathering of Mongolian officials, "No one ever saw the creature, but they are all very confident in the existence of the creature and described it accurately."

An explorer of the Czech Republic, Ivan Mackerle, describing Mongolian Death Worm:

"... Like a sausage with a length of more than half a meter (20 inches) and a thickness of a human arm, like a cow intestines. Tail is short, like a cut. Hard to describe because it looks like his head has no eyes, nose or mouth. Color is dark red , like blood or salami ... It moves in strange ways. Either by way of rolling or squirming sideways, with a sweep. creature that lived in the desert hills and in the valleys of the underground heat of the Gobi Desert with Saxaul plants. He just seen during the hottest months, June and July, and then in other months it burrow into the sand and sleep. He often came out of the ground, especially after rain, when the soil is wet. creatures are very dangerous because it can kill people and animals instantly within a few feet. "

Could Mongolian Death Worm is a type of electric eel? Electric Eels may have a shape similar to worms, but still she eel.Electric eels can produce electricity that is strong enough to paralyze or kill their prey. Electric eel Electrophorus electricus Latin name known for its ability to produce an electric current is very strong, reaching 500-650 volts. It is enough to stun or kill prey. However, it seems like the Gobi Desert is not a suitable habitat with an electric eel.Moreover, electric eels do not have the ability to belch acid.

 

Could Mongolian Death Worm is a kind of snake?

Perhaps the kind of creature that spits cobra. Red Spitting Cobra is a species of cobra that looks red and similar to the description of the color of Mongolian Death Worm. Cobra venom can be a painful squirt directly into the eyes of animals.

And what about electric shock?
Perhaps the stories of electric shock is due to an error caused by a shock to see this cobra.
