Rendering of a Moeritherium, an extinct aquatic mammal of north and west Africa.

The M'kuoo M'bemboo is a dinosaur or large reptile or mammal found in west Cameroon, in Africa.

Description[]

Reported only once, it is apparently known to the local peoples, who named it. Despite the similar-sounding names, this is not just another local name for the Mokele Mbembe. The creatures are drastically different.

The herbivorous creature is beyond massive, with a head alone that is described as the size of a full grown hippopotamus. It has a "gurgling" roar and is described as shiny black. The head is compared to that of a seal, but "flattened from above to below". It appears to be at least semi-aquatic, as the one report described it exiting an aquatic cave and lunging out of the water.

Supposedly, it attacks hippos; however, it does not eat them. This would explain why no hippos live in the region.

Explanation[]

It could be possible that a herbivorous species of marine reptile or mammal somehow found itself inland in Africa, in Cameroon, or more likely a seal or even a large crocodile. It can also possibly yet unlikely be an extinct Pyrotherium or Moeritherium that somehow survived for nearly 65 million years, they were among the first large mammals, in Cameroon.
