Grootslang

This powerful Cryptid hides in South Africa. It is a powerful swimmer, so it can often be sighted near water. In Zulu mythology, one of the first creatures the gods created was the Grootslang. The gods realized it would destroy everything if it was allowed to live, so they split them into the elephant and the snake. One or several survivors make up today's population. It lures elephants into a bottomless pit to devour them.
