About
Evolution takes care of nature's mistakes... This time it missed one.
Gruesome murders of South African farmers spur reports of a possible "cryptid" - a creature known in local legends or myths but as yet unknown to modern science. The worldwide news coverage of the gruesome murder attracts an international team of scientists to the remote area which is considered by some to be the "cradle of civilization".
