Dobhar-Chu


There are many strange creatures in Ireland, one of the strangest is the Dobhar-chu, which is roughly translated into "water hound". This odd and dangerous creature lurks, or lurked beneath the depths of some of the Irish lakes.

The creatures' length is not quite known, but believed to be from 6 to 8 feet from head to tail. It is White with short fur, and has features quite like an otter and has a black or dark brown "cross-like" mark that runs down its neck and back.

This creature is supposedly very hostile, and will attack without warning. The creatures have been recorded to have killed several people -- one such record is written on a stone tablet in Glenade, County Leitrim:

On September 27, 1722, a woman named Grace was killed by a Dobhar-chu, while washing clothes in Glenade Lake. When her husband came to find her, he found instead a Dobhar-chu sitting on her bloody clothes and mutilated body. He killed the beast, stabbing it in the heart. As it died, it made a noise like a whistle. It's supposed mate rose from the water and chased the man and his friend. They killed it before it got the chance to hurt either man.

Other stories show the beasts' taste for human flesh. One in particular tells how people mistook one for an otter. It attacked one man, but did not succeed in killing him.

THE EMELA-NTOUKA OF THE CONGO

Emela-ntouka The same Likouala swamp region of the Congo which is supposed to be home to the Mokele-mbembe may also contain another dinosaurian: the Emela-ntouka (literally "killer of elephants"). This stout rhinoceros-like creature is reputed to have a penchant for killing elephants with its single horn.
Lucien Blancou, chief game inspector in French Equatorial Africa in the 1950’s wrote of a ferocious creature, larger than a buffalo that was considered the most dangerous animal by the Kelle pygmies. "...the presence of a beast which sometimes disembowels elephants is also known, but it does not seem to be prevalent there now as in the preceding districts. A specimen was supposed to have been killed twenty years ago at Dongou, but on the left of the Ubangi and in the Belgian Congo." (translated by Heuvelmans, Bernard, On the Track of Unknown Animals, 1959.)

In 1981 Dr. Roy Mackal traveled to the Congo searching for the rumored sauropod dinosaur Mokele-mbembe. But he was surprised to hear reports of another mysterious animal called the Emela-ntouka or "killer of elephants". The natives in the northwest region of the Likoula swamp told how it would gore elephants with its single horn. Mackal contemplation that it was a ceratopsian was cast in doubt by the pygmies not recollecting a neck frill. The description, however, does not fit a rhinoceros which has a short tail and does not have a true horn composed of bone or ivory. It is fused keratin (hair) and it seldom comes of the winner in a confrontation with elephants. Mackal left open the possibility that the Emela-ntouka was a Centrosaurus ("pointed lizard"). This member of the Ceratopsian family (formerly the Monoclonius) sports a single large horn on the center of its head as seen on right. The ceratopsian identification has been strengthened by similar reports with a neck frill obtained by Genesis Park staff during a recent expedition to Cameroon. It also matches the classical authors’ multiple references to a ferocious single-horned creature that spears elephants in the belly, and leaves them to bleed to death.
