Is it a badly-drawn horse? The mysterious 900ft-long creature made 4,000 years ago from piles of stone in Russian mountains
With four legs and two antlers, this incredible animal-shaped structure has recently been discovered in Russia.
The mysterious geoglyph was discovered near Lake Zjuratkul in the Ural Mountains, north of Kazakhstan.
It stretches for an incredible 900 feet and it is estimated to match the length of two American football fields from top to bottom.
Discovery: This incredible animal-shaped structure has recently been discovered in Russia, near the Ural Mountains
It was first discovered by Alexander Shestako using satellite images. He then told researchers who sent out a paraglider to find the unique structure.
According to NBC News.com, Stanislav Grigoriev, of the Russian Academy of Sciences Institute of History & Archaeology, wrote in the journal Antiquity: 'The figure would initially have looked white and slightly shiny against the green grass background.'
He added: 'The hoof is made of small crushed stones and clay. It seems to me there were very low walls and narrow passages among them.'
Researchers believe the geoglyph could be from a 'megalithic culture'. Hundreds of sites from the megalithic era have been discovered nearby.
The region created stone monuments in prehistoric times.
An excavation has now taken place on the site which discovered passageways and small walls.
About 40 stone tools were also discovered, including some similar to pick axes.
Researchers believe the structure could have been built between the fourth and third millennia B.C if so, it would make it older than Peru's Nazca Lines.
