Hiding underneath the sand of the Gobi desert, lives a creature that the nomads are so afraid of, that if they see it, they will pack up camp and move. The Mongolian Death Worm, called Olgoi-Khorkoi in Mongolia, is described as a metre long worm-like creature that can spray a poisonous, corrosive venom, and shoot electric shocks into people, strong enough to kill them.

We also take time to look at the Zipius (Water Owl), and the Swedish Skvader.
