The Tsuchinoko (ツチノコ or 槌の子?) literally translating to "hammerspawn," is a legendary snake-like cryptid from Japan . The name tsuchinoko is prevalent in Western Japan, including Kansai and Shikoku; the creature is known as bachi hebi (バチヘビ?) in Northeastern Japan.
A sea serpent or sea dragon is a mythological sea monster either wholly or partly serpentine. Sightings of sea serpents have been reported for hundreds of years, and continue to be claimed today.
The Dingiso ( unidentified mysterious animal) has a distinctive pattern of black and white fur; it has a white belly, and a black head, back and limbs. Unlike other tree kangaroos, it spends little time in the trees. The species epithet, mbaiso , means "the forbidden animal" in Moni. It remains common in the west because of the protection conferred on it by the Moni people. For many Moni, it is an ancestor which must never be harmed. The Dingiso was only described and named as recently as 1995 by Australian Museum zoologist Tim Flannery , Indonesian zoologist Boeadi and Australian anthropologist Alexandra Szalay .
