There were two Goldons, though it has been a while and I only remember one in this episode. The Goldon survive by eating gold. Solid gold. While underground they didn't bother people. One eventually surfaces to eat the gold from one of the two mines in Japan. It also endangers people and destroys a village. It was only dangerous do to the immense size. Thus is was doomed to be destroyed by Ultraman. Once it was dead, the gold was either extracted or perhaps the beast itself was melted down. I hope the second one learned a lesson and stayed underground for the rest of its possibly very lonely life. Goldon resembles a sauropod dinosaur, but is many times the size of those. It can also burrow underground, which is something most sauropods couldn't do. This is another episode that makes modern and older viewers feel sorry for the beasts, since they just want to survive. Goldon hasn't made too many more appearances in the Ultra series. I think he's kinda cute.
