Kongamoto - African Pterodactyl

Kongamoto is a reported pterodactyl-like cryptid living in semitropical regions of Africa, particularly in Zambia, the Congo, and Angola. Kongamato roughly means; ‘over-turner of boats’. The creature is so named because the locals who cross the swampy areas where Kongamato resides report that it causes disturbances on the surface of the water which in turn causes their boats to overturn, allowing Kongamato the opportunity to feed on the drowning tribesmen.
