Seen the Mongolian Death Worm

have you heard of or seen the Mongolian death worm? has he spat venom your way or tried to electrocute you? you need to travel to the Gobi desert, where he is. in the 1950’s there were many hysterical sightings. known as olgoi-khorkhoi in Mongolia. Roy Chapman Andrew made the death worm famous. Writing a book about how he travels underground. Creating waves of sand on the surface. Looks like an intestine, has teeth, but no face or mouth. Kind of a hideous looking thing. Sprays venom. Is two foot long, without a head. Many expeditions have tried thumping to get him to appear. Even Roy Chapman Andrew disbelieves he exists Except in Mongolian folklore.
