Hunting For Mokele Mbembe

Who hasn't dreamt of going big game hunting? Who hasn't read Rider Haggard's novels or the Tarzan books and dreamt of going to the wild Africa? While it may at present become less and less mysterious, there are still virtually unexplored spots. In 1981, three Americans travelled to the jungles of Congo - or rather, to a huge swamp area, where Mokele Mbembe is said to live. Mokele Mbembe? It's a real, live dinosaur, extinct 60 million years ago. Except, perhaps, in Congo.

A brief telegram from AP in the Schenectady "Gazette", September 7th, 1981, states that Herman and Kia Regusters left their home in Los Angeles to seek the legendary Mokele Mbembe in a 140,000 square kilometer large swamp area in Congo.
