Mystic lake, the inhabitants of which inspire fear

Almost 2% of the Earth's surface fresh water. This leaves a big, very big gap for the many legends and tales associated with the lake monsters to take even well-known Loch Ness monster. However, in this article we will not repeat idle tales, conventional wisdom in the tourism environment. Instead, we study history on a much less well-known creatures that evoke fear in the residents of the lakeside areas.

Auitzotl

In the Aztec language Nahuatl, Auitzotl means "spiny water". In the surviving manuscripts of the monster is described as able to swim the length of the tail which increases the human hand. And this creature knew how to lure, faking screams desperate woman or child — in short, the Aztecs with imagination all right.

Will mishapes

People of the Ojibwe living near the Great lakes, called your personal monster Mishapes, a large lynx. It was thought that this creature is able to summon waves, and even to sink fishing boats. Exterior Mishapes described in different ways, converging only in the presence of scales and bony ridges on the head and the back of the beast.

Had-ntouka

Something like a Rhino, scaring naive members of the tribe English, living in Central Africa. A huge creature lived near the water and attacked local residents only during the full moon. All the other days of the month English prayed to the beast, leaving the Bank of human sacrifice.

El Cuero

The name can be translated from Spanish as "carnivorous cow hide." The habitat of this strange creation, chose the foothills of the Andes. Judging by the description, El Cuero could be something like land slope, able to drink the blood of their victims and to jump out of the water.

Dobhar-ku

Irish Dobhar-ku — a huge creature, a hybrid of an otter and a wolf. He is impervious to copies of the skin and has an insatiable thirst for blood. The Irish believed that dobhar-ku is targeting only the horses, strayed from the herd, so I was especially careful on the watering.

Grootslag

Something, as if crawled in the African lakes of third-rate horror movie. Grootslag snake with the head of an elephant, living in one of the cavities of the diamond cave. I must say that this dark creature manages to save the lives of children who would be forced to get diamonds extremely dangerous: superstition deter parents from similar assignments.

ISSI

This unknown science creature lives in lake Ikeda. ISSI, several times appeared in public — so at least assure local Newspapers. In addition, the monster was seen by the Japanese military. In 1961, on the surface of the lake dropped, the helicopter and the soldiers had to look for the remains of a sonar. In addition to the steel wreckage, the divers found a strange creature, which quickly slid into the darkness from the light projectors.
