The Notzuchitokage Cryptomundo

A guest column by Brent Swancer first discusses one of the most famous cryptids in Japan, the Tsuchinoko, a type of unknown snake recognized by its distinct fat body and its ability to make giant leaps or roll end over end. He then goes on to describe the Notzuchitokage, which has an upper body like a lizard with two legs and a lower body that resembles a snake. Are they misidentifications of blue tongued skinks? Or an undocumented type of reptile lurking in the remote forests of Japan? Also, check out the Round-Up Of Yakima Bigfoot Round-Up.
