  When some of the local people of the Likouala region would draw in the dirt or sand a representation of Mokele-mbembe they drew the shape of a sauropod dinosaur.Then when they were shown a picture of a sauropod dinosaur they said that picture is Mokele-mbembe.

  Mokele-mbembe means “One that stops the flow of rivers.”French priest(牧师)in the region called it “monstrous animal”.

  Mokele-mbembe lives most of the time underwater except when it eats or travels to another part of the swamp.

  It has been reported that Mokele-mbembe does not like hippopotamuses and will kill them at first sight, but it does not eat them.Hippopotamuses cannot be found where Mokele-mbembe lives.
