A team of UK dragon-hunters is on an expedition in The Gambia to track down a mysterious creature known locally as the "Ninki-nanka".

Believed to live in swamps, the ninki-nanka appears in the folklore of many parts of West Africa.

Mr Freeman, a cryptozoologist from the UK-based Centre for Fortean Zoology, admitted that the ninki-nanka's existence was "very far-fetched indeed".

But he disputed a suggestion that the hunt was a waste of time and money.

What a resounding endorsement of the project from the very body leading it... :D

Honestly, why don't these people just admit they enjoy role-playing on safari?

Richard Freeman? He should change his name.

because no one wants to admit they spent alot of money on a snipe hunt.

I have a Ninki Nanka as a pet. Don't tell the safari leaders.

"good shot, Cecil!"

"Spiffing!"
