Mongolian death worm legend is a very huge poisonous worm, mainly living in the Gobi Desert, some people say that this worm does not exist, but many people say that they have encountered this worm, does this worm really exist? Or is the Mongolian death worm mutated?

Let's reveal the secret for everyone!

The Mongolian death worm is mutated

The worm has been described as about 5 feet long, like cow intestines, usually red in color, and sometimes with horns at both ends of the body.

It can spew very deadly venom and can also release electricity to hit targets several feet away, and although this worm is rarely seen, the local Mongols are very determined about its existence. And the descriptions are very similar.

British explorers discovered that there was a large amount of uranium under Mongolia, and the death worm may be a giant horseland mutated by radiation. The worm lives underground and hibernates for a maximum of one year, with the exception of June and July, which are largely inactive; When it rains and the ground is wet, it crawls out of the ground.

The worm often preys on camels and lays eggs in its intestines, with a red and sometimes yellow epidermis. Its venom is said to corrode metals, and the worm may have parasitized local plants. It is rumored that this bug can emit lightning from the rectum. Although its existence has been reported by Mongolian nomads for centuries, there is no real evidence of the creature's authenticity.

Search for dead worms in Mongolia

British explorer Adam Davis formed an expedition to travel thousands of miles from England to the vast Gobi of Mongolia to explore the traces of the "death worm". Along the way, Davis asked herders about the Death Bug, and although many herders said they had seen it, they could not provide the expedition with detailed information about the habits and whereabouts of the Death Worm.

The first time the expedition gave hope was the Gobi National Park, where a guide explained the carved display of the "Dead Worm", as well as local snow leopards and wild white goats. The guide also said that the mysterious "death worm" is the pride of the museum and the highlight of visitors' attention. At the same time, the enthusiastic guide also told them that an old man 30 kilometers away had been studying the "death worm" for many years, and perhaps he could learn more from the old man.

In the old man's Mongolian tent, he pointed out on the expedition's map the places where the "Death Worm" frequented, which were usually difficult areas. He also told Davis that the "death worm" usually appears in June and July, and that the "death worm" burrows out of the sand whenever Goyo grass (a plant with small yellow flowers blooms in the Mongolian Gobi) after rainfall. In addition, he pointed out that in the Gobi Valley, where death worms often appear, there are also highly poisonous spiders and vipers, which are never afraid of the appearance of humans, and they will launch deadly attacks on humans who invade their territory.

Over the next few days, the expedition came to an area that was allegedly never reached by foreign explorers. A young man there said that he had seen a "death worm" near a well three years ago, and that its sightings were often seen by the villagers. On the way, Davis came into contact with a man who told the expedition that he had accidentally encountered the "Death Worm", and the venom sprayed by the terrible "Death Worm" burned his arm, and when he endured the pain and put the "Death Worm" in a cooled air bag, the "Death Worm" spewed green corrosive venom to escape from the air bag.

Based on the information and materials obtained during the search, Davis and his party decided to try their luck to find the traces of the "Death Worm", they "camped" in three places where the "Death Worm" was said to be frequented, and decided to search for the "Death Worm" at different times of the day. They searched for two hours in the morning, two hours after breakfast and two hours after lunch, and in the evening they searched for the "death worm", but day by day, six or seven hours a day, they still could not find it.

Although Davis did not witness the "Death Worm" in this expedition, he was still confident in the story of the "Death Worm". He quoted Andrews as saying: "If it weren't for the fact that the story of the 'Death Worm' had been so widely circulated and every eyewitness described it so consistently, people would have regarded it as a bizarre legend." But it turns out that the British expedition has been fascinated by the mysterious Gobi of Mongolia, and Davis said that he will organize a second expedition in the future to uncover the mystery of the "death worm"!
