This is the second video I've seen of yours, and I have to really appreciate the fact that when it comes to dinosaur-like cryptids you made the effort to actually make them accurate to modern science. One of the most immersion breaking things for me relating to a lot of these cryptids is them describing outdated designs and so I have to appreciate the research done into this.

[@Mudnag]

Thank you so much! We do care about scientific accuracy a lot!

[@liambrandley2716]

Something you could consider for this project is adding prehistoric mammals like saber-toothed cats, primitive elephants, or early hominoids

[@Mudnag]

We have already considered it, and we’re eager to add them, as many of them are, in fact, cryptids!

[@angelsworld6682]

​@@Mudnagwhat about other cryptids? Like bigfoot and other cryptids?

[@Mudnag]

@@angelsworld6682 for now we are focusing on the Congolese cryptids but, in the future, would be great to explore other places!

[@MrJeffharper47]

No lol. There’s absolutely no evidence for living sabertooth tigers lol. That’s stupid

[@damian5528]

There’s also a reptile cryptid, you could consider adding as well called the gbahali. It’s described looking somewhat like akin to postosuchus, though it can’t be because postosuchus lived in the USA. But there were other reptiles that lived Africa during prehistory such as nundasuchus, erythrosuchus & kaprosuchus. That could be candidates for the gbahali, if it’s not an unknown species of modern crocodilian.

[@remuslazar2033]

You deserve to discover Mokele Mbembe

[@Mudnag]

[@zonbiwolfpac]

I love these stories, so far I think the cryptids of Congo and native America are the most interesting

[@Mudnag]

Thank you! We also like the ones in Australia!

[@slipstreamxr3763]

If they do more Jurassic Park movie or tv shows. A show based around this concept except with JP dinosaurs now living freely in the Congo and ironically becoming like cryptids would be kind of interesting.

[@Mudnag]

We also thought that Dominion could have had some references to Congolese Cryptids! And that’s a great idea!

[@martasd2568]

I don't know if you know it but there's a british TV show called PRIMEVAL. There are few episodes being about cryptids turning out to be just creatures from past.

[@pirate_duck4985]

I really do love these cryptids! Places like the Congo & Amazon Jungles have been pumping out new species & one or two that were believed extinct! Personally I do get frustrated/annoyed about the Mkole Mbembe! I've been keeping oddball/exotic fish for many years. I got fascinated with Snakeheads & Bichirs. I ended up on a quest to own every possible Polypterus I could! I thought I'd done it! Then found out one had been reclassified RIGHT as Covid hit. Never managed it but they were available to order... Then came Polypterus Mkole Mbembe! They're named after the cryptid as they're found in the same area & they seem to have patterning that has a line/ridge along their spine. They're not one of the larger species either so I was all in! Literally NOWHERE I tried could get even one, I called in a couple favours with friends who work with aquatic animals in general not just fish but nothing 😭

[@Mudnag]

That’s so great!! Never knew there was a polypterus with Mokele Mbembe assigned to it. That’s fascinating to know. I can already tell the scientific personnel had a good time naming that one!

[@JaelonEsquash]

Hey Would you ever consider making videos on other dinosaur cryptids from other places in the world? Like the yukon and its patridge creek monster? First sightings were in 1903 -1907, I thought it would be cool to see a group hunters and indigenous peoples encountering the theropod. Just an idea, (love you're videos i hope to see more from you)

[@Mudnag]

Hey! Surely! But, as of yet, we still believe there is so much to explore in these Congolese Cryptids, so we will focus on them for a while. Maybe do a video about other dinosaurian Cryptids, but not getting too deep, at least for now. Thank you! 🙏

[@Vejur9000]

I love saying, “Mekele Mbembe”.

[@Mudnag]

It’s one of the best cryptid names, no doubt!

[@PatlovelyBHH]

Hey guys! Thanks for this insightful video! I’m a Congolese actor living in Japan. If I’m correct, about 50% of Equatorial Rainforest in Central Africa is found in DRCongo’s territory. The biodiversity within the Congo Basin is just insane. You can find pretty any type of living creature in there. So, I’m not surprised to see creatures depicted in this video. Keep digging and sharing your findings with us. I Hope Hollywood or other major filmmakers notice your work and fund the production of a proper movie that will features these creatures. Bravo! 🇨🇩🦕💯🦖🌍

Emela Ntouka could've been a derived Leptoceratopsid, since they got huge, and they could've developed a huge nasal horn, maybe a giant member that resembles Udanoceratops?

[@kavehthephantomboy]

What I love about your congoraptor is that you didn't represent it lipped, I know lipped theropod studies were so hot recently but there's still some palaeontologists who are against it just like myself but I've never seen any movie or novel with small lipless theropods.

[@Mudnag]

Thank you! The lips in theropods are quite the subject. I can’t really decide if I believe all of them add lips or not. The one thing I find interesting in the entire lip case is Spinosaurus. I believe it could have had similar lip coverage to the Ganges River Dolphin, being lipless in the tip of the snout, and having some sort of coverage at the back. It’s interesting to compare theropods to living animals, but it’s also interesting having in mind they could look very different from anything we have seen.

[@kavehthephantomboy]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYi4k394idJji5Y this is a link from paleontologist Tracy Lee Ford video that gives his ideas against 2023 study(not against lipped theory completely) which I think you would love to see @@Mudnag

[@kavehthephantomboy]

@@Mudnag this is exactly like how many paleonerds were imagining a 12m chicken with a long tail and snout and then calling it the accurate t-rex after yutyrannus discovering and nobody couldn't discuss with them because they didn't like to see what is not completely similar to modern relatives to this animals but now we all know that at least many parts of the t-rex body were scaly, this debate is also just like that, unfortunately this reaction is even happened to 2017 study from Dr. Thomas Carr about how tyrannosaurids didn't had lips based on a daspletosaurus honeri jaws but people reacted to it like: See, nobody cares. Honestly some parts in 2023 study were really weird to me, they say the t-rex replaced its teeth over two years but there is no sign of decay in comparison to crocodiles, I don't know how they're sure about it because based on two dinosaurs from two different groups of theropods, the allosaurus and the majungasaurus, this animals were able to replace their teeth even faster than crocs, for the allosaurus I've heard that it would take 100 days and for the majungasaurus it was even twice faster and then you wouldn't find any sign of decay on their teeth and another problem is that as the t-rex was possibly hunting the anklyosaurus, at least the juveniles, they would suffer multiple damages from biting them pulse a heavy and powerful bite force of 8000-12000 pounds and it's obvious that even with lizard-like lips it wouldn't help the animal so I can't really agree with this part of study. And never forget this fact that everything in paleontology is theory, even if we find a good preserved mummified fossil of a t-rex to solve this debate but we wouldn't realize everything about it, this is why paleontology is sweet endless job, you always can keep researching, criticize other studies and investigate.

As deep regions of congo are not discovered, I am pretty sure a few like giang Congolese spiders and Mokele Mbembe do exist.

[@Mudnag]

Exactly! It took decades for explorers to discover the forest Elephants in Congo, and they’re big and travel in herds! How could they have hidden so well? Easy. The vegetation is extremely thick. Animals, like the Mokele Mbembe, could very easily pass undetected amidst the lush rainforest.

If I was going to choose my version of Emela Ntouka I would use Charles Knight famous restoration of the invalid ceratopsian specie Agathaumas but with more accurate elements, I don't know why but this ceratopsian even though it's not real but late Knight painted it so beautiful and real-like.

[@Mudnag]

And it makes total sense! That painting is incredible, and the Ceratopsian sure does look like something that could have existed, even of it’s now outdated.

[@jerrychacon8814]

Experiments done on insects in a closed environment with less oxygen did make the insects grow larger than normal, as insects during the prehistoric times were large because of little oxygen back then. But today i doubt it.

[@eddiebustos2568]

There are other African cryptids. The Nandi bear. Which could be a remnant of the Bear Dogs. In the 1970's There were several sightings of this creature. There is also a Bigfoot type creature in South Africa called Rocka. And ancient rock paintings of these creatures.

I subscribed not long ago. I saw this story on your channel and I was so excited. I knew there were stories of dinosaur cryptids but I couldn't find anyone exploring them. I've heard of one that resembles a tyrannosaurid living in Texas for example.

[@Mudnag]

Thank you much! It would be awesome to go on a journey searching for them, but it’s just too dangerous, and not due to the cryptids!

[@Anonymous-ul4xt]

The Nguma Monene looks like a spinosaurus aegyptiacus or a Spinosaurus maroccanus descendent if spinosaurus was still living today

[@Mudnag]

Most likely a Spinosaurus aegyptiacus that stayed practically unchanged somehow.

[@axelramirez6245]

Have there been considerations for some animals of the Paleozoic, like surviving trilobites, radiodonts, lobopodians, orthocones, temnospondyls, ancient worms, eurypterids, giant bugs (e.g., griffinflies, millipedes, false spiders, scorpions), pareiasaurs, and synapsids? Have there been any cryptid creatures associated with them besides the famous Dimetrodon?

[@Mudnag]

It’s a great question! I think there’s a Synapsid cryptid and an Arthropleura one too. If you think about it, J’ba Fofi kind of fits the giant arthropod theme too, as tarantulas are very ancient. But, so far, there’s no fossil proof that a spider ever reached those proportions, so it still remains on a somewhat fictitious limbo. As for Arthropleura, it’s easy to speculate, since millipedes still get very big nowadays. The same size as bird eating tarantulas.

[@blobbertmcblob4888]

What I find interesting is that most of these sightings are from tribes people who LIVE in the Congo, they know what's out there, so when they say they see something weird, I tend to believe it. Besides, they say there are two places dinosaurs could live IF populations of them somehow managed to survive, the Congo and the Everglades. I do have to wonder, though if what people are seeing are literally time snapshots of the past.

It’s quite interesting that that’s the case. Even with all the European influence back then, some Congolese people still swear some cryptids are indeed real.

[@asherzerbib3461]

Do you have any hypothesis as to why dinosaur cryptids seem to be most abundant in Africa in particular?

[@Mudnag]

I think it’s mostly due to Congo’s vast wilderness, which is mostly unexplored! Dinosaurs seem so distant and primitive to us, that we hope they’re still alive in remote areas. South America has Mapinguari, which is basically a giant ground sloth, and is extremely possible to have existed until very recently. Congo also has some of these more plausible cryptids, but I think the scramble for Africa in 1880’s and the fact that Congo remained untouched by outsiders for a longer time than other places, ultimately create the perfect scenario for dinosaurs (which were being just discovered) to roam around there.

[@jameswilliams2075]

Most sightings were from European explorers who viewed Africa and all that lived in it as a primitive primal place, so the idea of living dinosaurs seemed possible to them despite funnily enough the jungles of Africa are quite recent in geological terms I think

Some Dinosaurs did have feathers, and it’s all over the fossil record. We have known this for decades, since the first Archaeopteryx was uncovered.

[@natsuki8821]

Surely this is bait. As Mudnag said, we have known that some dinosaurs did in fact have feathers....

[@jm329]

You can’t say it is a fact without ignoring all the other evidence.

This guy watched bill gibbons channel and just copied his research

[@Mudnag]

Credit to Bill Gibbons where it's due, but I do think I have my own vision for these cryptids, with a basis in speculative evolution. And it’s mostly artwork for a fictional comic book story.

[@thehuntsman7087]

@@Mudnag you didn't do any of the research or any or go on any expeditions, you just piggy backed off others hard work

[@kittenworld87]

Crypto zoology = 🐂💩

[@midgetydeath]

Is it just me or are Congo cryptids both reasonable and usually what could easily be thought of as a natural evolution of some known dinosaurs?

[@Mudnag]

Yes, they very well could be a product of evolution. Just animals surviving and adapting to an ever changing environment!

You guys sure don't like T-Rex lmao

[@Mudnag]

What? We love T rex!
