A rash of attacks, some of a sexual nature, at the all-female Kalamare Primary School, in Kalamare, Botswana, are being blamed on a Thokolosi, a harry monster of local folklore that is notorious for it's unquenchable carnal appetite.

The attacks, which are being attributed to the Thokolosi, reportedly have been going on since February of last year, and local families have become enraged at Kalamare village Chief, Kgosi Kgang, for not taking the matter seriously.

With the attacks becoming more frequent, local residents have been forced to keep their students home out of fear.

Lenyatso Galebetwe, who's 11-year-old daughter was the first to be attacked echoes the feelings of many of the victim's families, My child will not go back to that school until that evil thing has left. She has had enough!”


“She was the first to be molested and has suffered repeated attacks since then. On the first day (of school) a certain schoolboy ran into my yard crying saying the teachers had sent him to summon me. When I got there my child was lying in a seemingly lifeless state with her eyes wide open and whitish thick saliva dribbling from the corners of her mouth. It was a pitiful and painful sight.”

Though the Thokolosi is being blamed for the attacks, Galebetwe, stated that her daughter has not come forward with a positive id of whom, or what, is responsible for her numerous assaults.

Kereng Peloentle, on the other hand, is certain that it was a Thokolosi that attacked her daughter, “My child who is 12 and in standard five was attacked last month while in class. I took her to the New Good Shepherd Church where the prophets told me the thing that had attacked my child is a Thokolosi. That’s when I decided to withdraw her from school because honestly one can subject their child to such things. She will only go back when that thing has been dealt with. I think only churches especially the Zion Christian Church can chase this creature away and give our children a chance to go on with their education.”

Peloentle went on to say that her scared little girl had described the creature as, "hairy with cat like features and dressed in colorful clothes."

With more and more parents coming forward with reported attacks on their children, public outrage has been focused primarily on Kgosi Kgang, who until recently had ignored the matter.

Now, Kgang has been forced into meeting with his staff to try and resolve the matter.

Now here is the million dollar question, is there really a fancy dressed cat-man running around Botswana raping little school-girls, or is there a human molester using a local legend as a cover-up for his crimes?

Yes, I agree, it's number two.

I'm certain that when this whole thing is resolved, the rapist will be revealed to be quite human, which will make him out to be a bigger monster than any mythology or human imagination could create.

I should also mention that last year a female Thokolosi was reportedly visiting an inmate in a Botswana prison and forcing him to have sex with her. According to the report, the prisoner was getting rather tired of the human-monster-intercourse and requested a transfer to another prison.
