The Mongolian Death Worm is a snakelike creature reported to exist in the Gobi Desert. It is generally considered a cryptozoological creature - that is, reported, but disputed and/or unconfirmed.
It is described as a fat, red animal, two to four feet long. The local name is "allghoi khorkhoi" which means "intestine worm," because it is reported to look like the intestine of a cow. There are a number of extraordinary claims by Mongolian locals (such as the ability of the worm to spew forth poison that is lethal on contact, and its purported ability to kill at a distance), but no scientifically reliable sightings.
It is described as a fat, bright red snakelike animal measuring two to four feet in length, which is vividly likened to a cow'sintestine.
The foremost investigator of the Mongolian death worm is Czech author Ivan Mackerle, who first learned about the creature from a female student from Mongolia.
Mackerle and his colleagues befriended some Mongolian nomads who were willing to discuss the death worm, after a couple of bottles of Mongolian vodka loosened their tongues.
