This terrifying creature is believed to exist in the most desolate parts of the Gobi desert. The Mongolian death worm is red in colour, between two and five feet long. They have a very thick body.

According to the urban legend, this nightmarish creature travels underground and they create waves of sand on the surface. These creatures hunt livestock and humans. They are highly venomous and they are able to spray their venom at their prey or electrocute them over large distances.

The Mongolians believe that if you touch any part of the worm, you will die from a very painful and fast death.
It has been told that the worm frequently preyed on camels and laid eggs in its intestines. It's venom supposedly corrodes metal.

None of those present ever had seen the creature, but they all firmly believed in its existence and described it minutely. As I had said earlier "no one knows that to what extent these are true" but still the locals believe in them and have some fear against them.
