Living Dinosaurs in the Congo: Emela Ntouka

  • Since the early 20th Century, western explorers have told tales of an aggressive, horned prehistoric animal dwelling in the Congo rainforests. While some have suggested that this cryptid, known as the Emela Ntouka, might be a new species of rhino, the majority opinion seems to be that this creature is a living Ceratopsian dinosaur. Just how likely are these claims? Find out in this new video in my African cryptid series!

Science admits that fossilization is an extremely rare occurrence under current conditions yet offer no explanation as to why there would be fossil beds scaled in thousands of acres worldwide, why? I'll give you both answers at once, there was a massive global cataclysm which created _all of the_ fossil beds simultaneously and it was nowhere near 65 million years ago.

      @@andrewgan557 I wouldn't call it rare, it seems more like the standard. There are places like the La Brea tar pits which only comprise about 20 acres of land and they contain many fossils but where does the tar itself come from, where does any of the coal, oil and natural gas found all over the world come from? They're all the derivatives of decaying organic matter trapped deep underground at high heat and pressure, primarily underneath sedimentary rock. The massive volume of organic matter required to produce those deposits could not have become trapped under 1000's of feet of inorganic sediment by a slow and gradual process. Sandstone, siltstone, mudstone, shale, ect. do not turn into coal, oil or natural gas over time, however, plants and animals do, generally as the result of being suddenly entombed by sediment laden, global, mega-tsunamis triggered by oceanic asteroid impacts.

    Hey you make good videos I'll give you that. Aside from that creepy polar bear lol. Ok seriously question here. I heard there was a supposed cave drawing of the long necked creature. I don't know if you heard about it but there was supposed to have been one. Just curious to see if you know anything about it? I really have to also ask the geological column where some of these fossils are found have a lot of marine creatures fish claims in with the Dinos isn't that kind of odd. Also why is there not the same or similar rates of layering today? We been using Roman roads in a lot of places in Europe without anything covering them. If I understand correctly isn't the hell creek formation like meters and meters deep? Thanks and have a good day

    We're very lucky, indeed, that ceratopsians died out when they did. I happen to know, from personal experience, that not only were they bloody huge behemoths, they were also highly territorial, temperamental, and violent as well. I'm not sure that our early human ancestors could have survived at all with such monstrosities charging about the landscape. We dodged a bullet there.

    It's a Rhino. Possibly an unknown species of Rhino, at that. I have a couple books on cryptozoology that outline this creature, and they all end up suggesting it's some form of Rhino, similar to the ones on Sumatra that live in the forests there.
    This is one worth trying to capture, I'd say.

      If it is a rhino, then it is an aquatic one. Our expeditions to Cameroon have identified two such animals. One type lives in the savannah between Cameroon and the Central African Republic and possesses a neck frill and multiple horns. The forest animal apparently possesses two horns (one beside the other) similar in appearance to the Arsinoitherium and is fully aquatic. These animals are most likely not dinosaurs, even if they resemble one. However, my presentation includes actual native drawings of them.

    I've often wondered why crocs and many other reptiles survived the so called asteroid hit. But no dinosaurs? It seems like a rather selective extinction. And as for the kt boundaries, the dinosaur bones run out long before you reach the level of said boundarie. You'd think at that boundarie it would be thick with bones.

      Because for one, crocs, birds and other reptiles were small and were very adaptive to their surroundings.
      Large dinosaurs (excluding birds) however were large and required large amounts of resources to feed, something that wasnt available as large numbers of their kinds and plants were eradicated at that time.

      Crocodilians have a lower metabolism than any dinosaur, and can go months without food (crocs in the driest parts of Africa may only eat once a year when the herds cross the rivers). This combined with their general adaptability and sedentary lifestyle allow crocs to survive conditions that many other creatures cannot.
