Mystery Of Mummified Monster Found In Serbia

The mummified remains of a mystery animal have been found in Siberia by diamond miners.

The creature was discovered in sands at Udachny, 1160 miles northwest of regional capital Yakutsk.

“The diamond miners who unearthed it believe the ‘monster mummy’ is a previously unknown kind of dinosaur,

Scientists however, were reported the be “less certain” and want to study the animal which was found at one of Russia’s major diamond mines.

Other theories suggest the mini-monster could be a wolverine -  a carnivorous mammal that resembles a small bear - or a sable or marten.

The mystery animal is due to be taken from Udachny - literally meaning ‘lucky’ - to Yakutsk for examination.

The diamondiferous sands where it was unearthed date from the Mesozoic Era from about 252 to 66 million years ago.

The town is famous for the Udachnaya pipe diamond deposit, discovered in 1955, and mined since the 1960s.

In 1974 a 1.7 kiloton atomic bomb was detonated 98 metres (322 ft) underground to create the basin for a tailings dam for the diamond mine.

Today’s climate in the area is extreme sub-arctic.

But before the demolition could begin, builders ventured into the property one last time. Deep down in the basement, they discovered one of the strangest collection of items in recent history.

Tucked away inside the dusty basement were several thousand small wooden boxes, each tightly sealed. One by one, each box revealed the remains and bodies of all kinds of creepy monsters and supernatural beings that seemed to exist only in the darkest of fairy tales.

Was he able to bring some of his discoveries back home? Did his travels inspire him create his own monsters? Or was it all just some kind of elaborate prank designed to shock and awe the public after his death?

To this day, there has been nothing more than speculation and conjecture over Merlin's true motivations. However, there is no denying it remains one of the most unusual and interesting discoveries in London's recent history.

Goblin Creature Caught in Camera

When an extraordinary photograph of a blurry “monster” emerges from the remote valleys around Beijing, online commentators are understandably liable to cry foul and dismiss it as an elaborate fake.

But a series of images showing a creature closely resembling the character “Gollum” from Lord of the Rings now appear to have turned out to be “genuine”.

The photos were captured by a Chinese tourist in Huairou, who claimed to have had an encounter with a “monster” with human-like form but enormous ears.

He said he and his friends were camping in the wilderness when he spotted the “creature”, and he quickly took a number of pictures on his mobile phone before it scampered away.

In posts online he said: “I walked far away to have a pee, and suddenly saw a monster. I took a few pictures of it, but I am now terrified by my courage then.”

The pictures were widely shared via Chinese social media – until one commentator said he thought he might be able to explain the bizarre occurrence.

While there is no way of verifying his comments, the amateur actor said that he is in fact the subject of the photographs – dressed up in prosthetics and a leafy loincloth.

“Over the weekend I and my friends went to the mountains to take a mini sci-fi film,” he wrote.

“And when I was having a pee a person popped up and took pictures of me and shot away.”
