First documented in the early 1900s by British colonials, Mngwa, or 'the great grey beast', is a cat-like creature that roams the savannahs of Tanzania. Described as being larger than a lion, with brindled fur that allows it to camouflage within the grasslands, it has been known to attack humans but remains generally shy and elusive.

This beast has not only instilled fear in the hearts of the local Swahili but is also claimed to be a silent hunter whose ghostly presence is often realized only after it has struck.

Hunters and cryptid enthusiasts, take heed: the Mngwa is known for its stealth and power, and its tracks are often confused with those of other large felines. To stand a chance of encountering it, focus on reports and incidents of unusually large predations and missing locals.
