@@larsonfamilyhouse I agree about the head IF the mountain lion was healthy. This one as you can see from the rest of the body is emaciated. Without the fat the head also changes to look like this. The tail does look and has the markings of a mountain lion. The lack of hair is explainable as it appears to be hit by hair loss from an affliction. Perhaps that explains eating berries which a lion will resort to in this condition.
In my experience, experts are rarely helpful. Or at least the ones they interview for corporate-style news. No discussion of the anatomy visible in the photos, no discussion of the tail, which looks nothing like a dogs.. there are a lot of issues with this news story, if you think about it
They gotta look at the geography of the location. Do they live by mountains? Forest? Then pull out every animal that lives there and boom you find the one. Not hard to do…..
I'm having a hard time deciding on being more amazed by the look of the creature or the fact that those pictures were not blurry at all...Take note,Sasquatch researchers!
Too bad she wasn't able to get video instead of just pictures, that might've made it more easily identifiable. I'm going to agree with those who think it's a coy-dog with mange. Definitely not a mountain lion, that's a canine snout. (Edit: and ears). Oh -- it's a saber-toothed wolf/bear/lion! 😊
I might know what this is. It looks like a real, known creature: an ancient species of North American hyena called a RUNNING HYENA (scientific name: Chasmaporthetes Ossifragus). They are usually thought of as extinct, except they really aren't, because people keep seeing them every once in a while. In the 1700s and 1800s, the nickname for these creatures was RINGDOCUS or SHUNKA WARAKIN. There is a taxidermied specimen of one of these at the Idaho Museum of Natural History in Pocatello.
@@doom6985 Chupacabras are different. They walk/hop upright and have hind feet like kangaroos, have smooth black leather skin, and have a head & spiked crest down the back of their neck like a lizard. This is mostly according to people in Puerto Rico and South America who see them occasionally and all report the same description. And the running hyena is just a normal but rare mortal creature, while the chupcabras have an element of spiritual evil to them. Occasionally when forest rangers have run into coyotes with mange or wild feral Mexican Xoloitzcuintle dogs, they accidentally reported them as chupacabras, and then this skewed the public's perception of what a chupacabra really was.
Absolutely a coyote/dog cross. I call them "curs". I had one once and she was the best and most protective dog I had. She was so good, she broke a chain and caught a burglar before the police could get him. One of the officers adopted her on the spot. Only because my mom didn't like her. The Cur I had looked just like this one.
@@mweatherby2968 They are very sweet dogs, my sister had one she named Isis after the Egyptian Goddess. She caught her wild outside our town because the town wanted her put down (since she was basically a wild coyote) so she saved her and kept her. She became the sweetest and most loving companion to my sister and only ever bit someone ONCE out of fear and never again. She passed away about a year ago and my sister was and still is devastated. She lived a long and happy life; she was the only "dog" other than our pug who passed when I was 14 I ever really liked. Such amazing animals
lol yeah . there is one , or i think just one here in Arkansas roaming our little town. we have farms lands and natural springs so its been hanging around the secluded area of the Norwood farm fields and my property . it hasn't come after my goats yet but my livestock guardians may be keeping it at bey. It;s tail is short haired with a little bushy bunch at the end of it
Has anyone noticed that it looks a lot like a thylacine without stripes? Perhaps some have survived and evolved, losing the stripes over generations. That would be an incredibly great discovery.
@@JoniMitchell-qi6hr now you may be on to something here! The elusive North American Tasmanian Devil Dog is so rare some question if it ever even existed! We both know better, perhaps they spotted one on camera finally!
It’s 100% canine. Have seen many different pictures over the years of mangy feral dogs that look exactly like this. Instead of jumping to crazy conclusions, let’s instead think of what is the most likely answer. It’s a canine of some sort, maybe hybridized, likely with mange, mystery solved.
Exactly! People going nuts! Its just a bear, dog, lion, pig with a touch of squid somewhere in its genealogy. "Oooooohhh its some bigfoot like thing" lol. Relax folks.
A coydog, most likely. They can look totally different one side to the other, like the one in town that I thought was maybe a Lab before it turned to look at me and had a straight coyote face. Then we've had some out near me in the rural part of the county, that look more like feral mutts, often bigger than you'd think they'd be. I agree with the skin issues as well, mange can throw anyone off, just look at bears with it.
Either a coyote with mange or this is the first confirmed sighting of a Tasmanian Tiger in over half a century after they’ve been reported to be extinct. Food for thought by the way - We’ve had research going on for decades now to “revive” extinct species and are currently in the process of bringing hybrid Wooly Mammoth’s back from fossil DNA. It is very easy to imagine how “new” versions of extinct animals could be reintroduced into the ecosystem without anyone knowing, this is all hypothetical.
I thought the same thing, but it lacks the tiger stripes on the hind end. The Tasmanian tiger is listed extinct, but many sightings have been documented down there, so your guess is as good as mine. However, how in the world would it make it to Texas if that was the case?
By the looks of it, I'd say It's very possible that a domesticated dog mated with a coyote... Crazier things have been known to happen in the wild lol, but whatever it is I Hope it's friendly and I hope that the next video about this furry mystery isn't because someone put it down. 🍀✌️
Pretty sure that's what happened coyote and dog mated.....theres a UA-cam video where a man had dog that had a coyote as a friend so it could be possible..
@@jamesbernsen3516 same colour as a lot of other animals. That's no mountain lion. Not even close. I happen to live in an area with a lot of them. Nice try though
@@thebeeguy1044 Yeah I'm sure she's in love with the attention she's getting from this too. It makes her mundane life feel special. Now she's probably double her wine consumption and thinks she's Nancy Drew.
Thinking the same thing or that weird dog with the huge head in the one el chupacabra video that police filmed running down the road. I fi remember right it was in texas also. Maybe a coy-dog with mainge?
My maternal grandfather bought a coyote-dog hybrid, and had him for many years. The animal never barked, it just yipped and was super hilarious to be around. This animal, believe it or not, looks like a coyote-pit bull mix.
Same thought here. Whenever I think about a coy-dog my mind instantly goes to skinny and medium size This one’s thick It has to be one with a pitbull or something else that’s chonky
Could be. In fact that's actually very plausible and more so than some other weird or ridiculous theories all these other people or fools are coming up with in the comments section.
Coyotes and dogs can produce hybrids. And are getting common because of human settlement in close vicinity with coyote habitats. I have fostered a coydog hybrid, the result of a union between a female coyote and a male domestic dog in this case this one is a siberian husky. I am talking about my hybrid and not the one in the video, whatever that is.
Definitely a coyote mixed with a dog my dad had a pit bull and it breed with a wild female coyote and made some wild looking coy-dogs they would come a little closer to people but they where still wild and wouldn’t let you touch them but they would come lay on our porch from time to time as long as you where not outside or near that area
At first, I thought it was an herbivore, as it looked like it was grazing, before she explained about the fruit tree and dropped fruit….wild canines would be more interested in eating fruit, than a domesticated dog. If you should discover it’s identity, I hope you’ll come back with a part two, and share that info with us. Thanks for the head scratcher!
I've seen a strange coyote/dog-like animal a couple of times while riding my bike on Addicks Dam which horseshoes a large wild area. They had the wild colorations you'd expect on a coyote but they seemed much shorter in length and taller than a coyote. Also, I saw them in the middle of the day from a distance of only 20 or 30 yards and they acted too tame to be wild, but looked too wild to be tame. One other interesting feature was the tail....it looked like a very hairy tail you'd expect to see on a coyote but in the bright sunlight you could see a slight indication of the tail having a ringed pattern.
I agree with the skin issue assessment. You would be shocked at the before and after photos of dogs that have severe skin problems, mange. However, coyotes can get mange as well.
Where does the skin look like it has mange? This is a very clear image, so I’m confused, and for those calling this creature a Cougar please know the difference, cause you can’t be that stupid. Cats have short snouts and mouths. This creature head is huge, square shaped and long. No where near no type of feline that exist today. Closes creature this thing resembles is definitely a Tasmanian Tiger.
I saw about 8 of them in moon light last night out in front of my house. Sort of looked like a sheep but had a dog like movement. Not a coyote, not a pig, bulky.... I live in the back country of Seligman AZ.. had large heads. To dark to get photos.
I was surprised when I first learned just how much a starving dingo with protruding ribs and extreme mange could look like a thylacine, especially from a distance. Mange creates so many of these supposed "monsters" and "chupacabras".
Wow it looks like the very elusive Mutt.....A dog that's mixed with a little bit of everything....Yeah I saw one in my living room yesterday..We named it Neo...
Yup. Give Neo mange (don't do that) and bingo. Chupacabra: coyote with mange. This thing is bigger and doesn't have mange as bad yet. It does not have sabre teeth. It had like a stick in its mouth. Edit: probably a coyote. I misjudged its size. Usually when they have mange, they get sickly and weigh like 20 lbs. This thing looks ~25-30 lbs. I'm glad my guess aligned with the zoo vets. Your dog, Neo, The One, sounds awesome BTW. He's a good boy and he probably knows it ( ihope). Give him some scritches from rando on internet (and remind him he's a good boy)
America had Hyena's that went extinct 😮regular Hyena's don't look like that but the American hyena looks exactly like that 😮they have been reported since the 1700 and someone even killed one and had it mounted in a store and was later given to a museum in Idaho😮it's so many elusive species in our woods and some are even humanoid
Animal artist here: that's a canine (either a coyote or a domesticated dog - it's difficult to tell which from the photos, but the ears make it appear to be a coyote) with mange. His (you can see testicles in one image) body shape and body/head ratio aren't right for a cougar.
I do agree with you but... Not a chance in hell that's a coyote with that snout. And are you sure that's testis? I also see nipples that are too big for a male. And when female canines breed A lot their "area" can change.
Animal control is pathetic. I called them one time, because a group of 3 dogs surrounded me while walking and tried to attack me. I was able to get away and called. They would not send anyone unless I gave them all my information. I said the dogs are still there, please send someone so they don't attack a child or anyone for that matter. They wouldn't do it without my full name, address, and other information. They practically wanted an affidavit to protect the community. I said well if they attack someone, you're responsible and hung up.
@@oljimeagle It’s clearly not a member of Ursidae. The body profile is completely wrong, not to mention the tail & ears are a dead giveaway this is not a bear. This is a member of the Canidae family, & it does indeed have mange or a similar issue going on 👍
Smart take, but wrong hindquarters. Probably some stray mongrel or domestic dog-coyote mongrel, judging by its apparent familiarity with suburban environement.
@@tygerstripes3752 Excuse me? You can even buy mange medicine that’s sold in a form of treats for the wild animals. Murder is always the first option for you, isn’t it?
I believe this animal is called a Dhole . A Dhole is a wild dog but is not typical fond in Texas. It was probably brought over as an exotic pet or escaped a zoo. The tail has alot of missing fur. But it has the typical black end to the tail that most dholes do have. The black end to the tail fallows up the tall some ways. Also the very lage rounded ears with alot of fur inside the ears that sticks out in a lighter color is another clue. Wild dholes can come in many different reddish browns and blackish shades. But they all seem to have the same fur patterns. I'm pretty positive this is your unknown mystery dog . Please look up pictures of a wild dhole. I do believe most people would agree with me . The big rounded ears with the black ended tail are the biggest clues . Good luck to all and I hope this brings answers for everyone wondering :) P.S. I WOULDN'T BE WRIGHTNG THIS IF I THOUGHT I WAS WRONG.
Its probably just a dog but don't rule out non-native animals. Americans like to import every wild animal into this country. So if anyone escaped we could see them on our streets. An example we have more tigers in this country than all the wild tigers in the world. As young kid I found a Chimpanzee here running around.
Speaking as a former zookeeper who has worked with both wild canids and wild felids, I can at least confidently say this is not a felid (cat) of any kind. The anatomical proportions are 100% canid. I wish the lady had captured it on video instead of just snapping a couple of photos, as seeing it in motion from potentially multiple different angles would have been much more helpful for identification. My best guess is that it's a coyote-dog hybrid with a mange-like skin condition.
I’m in Arkansas and saw one of these mythical creatures too . I was riding my electric skateboard and it came out of the bushes chasing a baby deer . I asked the leprechaun riding on his back what the heck is that ? He told me “you better mind your own business if you know what’s good for you “ That’s exactly what I’m what I’m going to do .
Maybe. Maybe it is a wild or feral animal that has an immune issue and is more susceptible to mange mites. It is very odd that you immediately want to blame a person when this could easily be an example of just a mangy mountain lion or something. No need to blame humanity, we do enough awful shit that we don't need to pad our stats.
It’s a coyote with mange it is the most horrific way to go. They suffer a long, long time inflammation of the face ears joints lots of hair they get literally deformed.
I saw an animal that looks just like this in the hope Ranch area of Santa Barbara, CA in June 2023. It was so fascinating, looking that I pulled my car over, got out, and I tried to take a picture of it, but it ran off when it saw me. I still think about going back to where I saw it to see if I can find it again, but I probably won’t.
I have seen exactly the same creature crossing a road in Ontario Canada, it surprised me and i was very puzzled by the fact that it didn't have any hair, it seemed to have a skin disease. Happy to see that other people saw it, because every time i was telling my story, people would say that it was probably just a dog or a coyote that i have misidentified...
Up to this day I’ve been wondering if my mind was playing game after a long day of work. But now that I see this, now that I see your comment… I realized that I’m not the only one who has encountered an animal like this ! I’m from Ontario too and I’m speechless.
Also seen a strange looking four legged animal in East Texas crossing the highway at 3 in the morning. It was large as a Great Dane. It stopped once it crossed on my side of the highway. As I drove by it. Have no idea what it was
I think it's a Carolina wild dog, also called an American dingo, based on its orange and white colouration, long ears, brushless tail, short fur, and location. However, it could just be a coydog.
This thing is very rare if you guys don't know what it is through the research I'm sure they've been saying they're extinct but not this. It's a blessing to see it out
@@TopHatNat Hahaha The camera on my latest phone is the worst I've ever seen. It actually looks like that filter that makes a photo look "cartoonized" - it's so pathetic. 🤣 🖼🤡 If I would've known, I never would have got this phone, but I'm definitely going to buy one with a better camera next time. 🙃 That said, it can still happen nowadays. Can't wait to see something spectacular & try to "document" it. 😂😂
It's always a picture when it's something strange and unexplainable, but never a video when virtually every phone in the world can shoot video. Interesting
We had one in Petawawa, Ontario, Canada about a week ago. Possibly a coywolf. Coyote mated with a wolf. Big ears long tail. From a distance it looks like a small moose but with short legs.
No, it's a f'n lab experiment. What the hell dog with mange looks like a cross between a dog and a mountain lion? They're f'n with DNA again and are gonna unleash the hellhounds in due time. It's enough they've got the Greys' technology to work with.
@@nachomom-fk2bi That's a good guess. The body and ear structure looks about right for that. Poor thing needs help ASAP before it's too late, whatever breed it may be.
@@thebeeguy1044 we can chalk that up to evolution along with the shedding of the stripes. it has the same features as its early ancestors. prob needed to be a tad bigger this time around
The tail indicated it is a canine, literly one with mange. The head shape and stocky body are reminiscent of a bull terrier and the agouti fur pattern of a coyote or red wolf. Perhaps a mix of the two.
I worked in a Wild Animal Park with exotics as well as native North American species and I have a biology degree and I have no clue, lol. Ears are way too big to be a mountain lion, it has a very strange face for a dog and most dogs will not eat plums? My guess is its a mixed breed dog maybe mastiff which explains the short face mixed with German Shepherd which explains the big ears and it has mange, just a tuft of black hair at the end of the tail. He is not starving by the look of his ribs but has some odd tastes for a dog thus the plums.
Reporter : "what kind of animal you think that this would be ????" Me : "ummmm...... you know I would have say it's.............. Your moms" !!!! 😂😂😂😂😂 ❤❤❤❤
This looks very much like the same creature that was spotted in a neighborhood in Berlin, Germany earlier this summer that caused quite a sensation. It was first reported as a lioness on the loose (no zoo reported an escaped lioness though), or possibly a wild boar. Apparently no one saw it again and people are still arguing about it might have been... 🤔
The animal that they are trying to figure out looks like a Jackal. The only reason I think it’s that is because look at its body and small narrow face and big ear that is what a Jackal has. And they are related to dogs, coyotes, foxes, wolves.
@@Makdwil24 That fits from the appearance. Strange though that one of those would be lurking around in the Berlin area... But I didn't buy the wild boar theory that the authorities were trying to push on the people. They look way different.
@@Xianne027that is weird. But jackal are really shy toward humans I also have seen them before but in my backyard near the gooses. Which kind of scared me because I was like what will it do to them I'm already scare because I have a pitbull and like what if my dog eats a goose now we have this jackal. But this is not the worst animal we have we have foxes and deers and a moose. And domestic Wolf that is mixed with a German Shepard and husky that can jump over a 8 foot gate.
@@Xianne027 I know they aren’t bad. But how are we going to keep our animals safe if we have other animals jumping over 8 foot gates. But I’m more worried about this moose killing my 10month old pitbull puppy.
His body shape is similar to a heeler or some terriers. I’m almost certain it’s a dog with mange. Mange can get very crusty and leave their skin looking leathery like that.
It legit does actually look like a Tasmanian Tiger. With no tail at least. I think sometimes stripes weren’t always a defining trait. That’s nuts bro… 😲🤯
Hyena. I've seen them up close in Africa. (A friend was raising one as a pet. Crazy.) Also "Copacabra", which has been identified as hyenas brought by the rich as exotic pets, and subsequently escaped.
@@importedposter4152 (1) "I only spell in two languages: English, and bad English." (2) While the chupacabra has not been "absolutely identified", saying that it "absolutely hasn't been identified" only publicizes a serious lack of familiarity with current research on the subject. (3) Having been, myself, close enough to a hyena to pet it, I know what a hyena looks like. A half-grown hyena looks like this.
@@KennethAGrimm i'm not sure if that quote was an attempt at comedy or some half-assed effort to show some vague form of intelligence, but it only made you seem pretentious. then you realize the quote isn't even right, and now you're pretentious and vapid. my claim that the chupacabra has not been identified does not "publicize a serious lack of familiarity with current research on the subject", you are magnifying this extremely minor issue to a hilariously stupid scale. it's a blatant fact. we will never be able to know what a "chupacabra" is, because it doesn't exist. we will never be able to break down every sighting--especially not the original ones--and say we know for sure what it is. we DO know that many sightings were either fabricated or were an unfortunate case of a mangey canid--NOT a hyena. the fact that you claim i'm not up-to-date with research yet didn't care to provide any to prove your point is purely idiotic and borderline hypocritical. lastly, i do not give a single fuck if you have seen a hyena in person. a lot of people have. zoos exist, and they're pretty common. i have seen hyenas in person--both striped and spotted. since the photo we see at 0:57 very clearly has no stripes nor spots, i assume you believe it to be a brown hyena? oh wait, brown hyenas still have stripes... and very long fur... hm. now i'm stumped, i really thought it was going to be a hyena! it's also unfortunate that it has a longer tail than most hyenas, shorter fur than both brown and striped hyenas, a completely different body shape, a different head shape... you know, i'm starting to think it might not be one! crazy how that works. you'd think that a village with less than 1,000 people would hear about an escaped hyena, anyway, huh? word usually gets around in small towns, dude, and i'm pretty sure an escaped dangerous animal is one of those things that people hear about.
I believe you. 15yrs ago in HarCo, near the Susky, something like this crossed the road in front of my mom and I on the way back from the doctors. Had the same lanky tail, narrow hips, back legs were longer than the front, large chest and low to the ground. I distinctly remember my mom and I trying to describe it and the only thing we could think of was dog like back and monkey like front. My dad and brother just laughed at us, but we were so amazed and excited about this sighting I know it was real. I mean it wasn’t a dog, I grew up with dogs, and not those rat dogs everyone carries around, like real dogs, so I KNEW it wasn’t a dog. Not a cougar or coyote either, this was something I had never seen before.
Catdog? Lol Looks similar to the tail of a mountain lion but that is a doglike head and definitely NOT A MOUNTAIN LION. It’s not unheard of for something from Mexico to travel up here. I learned about this wild cat from Mexico- a jaguarundi that comes to Texas sometimes and no one knows what it is when they see it. Even ocelots can be found there. Still not sure what this is though. Those wolf-coyote hybrids can be really weird looking but it’s probably not exactly the right color for that either. Super weird. Probably something exotic someone raised and let free or something like that. I’d have liked to hear the zoo people talk rather than random people on the street.
Exactly, it’s a dog with skin issues. One of my dogs had a problem like that. More than likely it has scratched off most of its fur from fleas. Hopefully they’re able to rescue it.
Not a mountain lion for sure. It's very possible that it's a cross of a dog and a coyote or wolf. I've seen packs of domesticated dogs and coyotes in the high desert but I understand that wolves would kill a domestic dog. Apparently, they don't like other canines, so my guess is yote/dog.
Certainly of canine decent. Canines are true omnivores. "Sweet tooth" for berries. Felines are almost exclusively carnivores unless starving. Probably a dog mix: mixed with a wild dog such as a coyote.
Many pictures and videos like this circulated decades ago, prompting people to call it a chupacabra. An episode of Monster Quest documented a couple of instances very well. They are coyotes with mange.
Looks like Thylacin . Originally from Australia . supposedly went extinct in the very early 1900s however they said the same thing about the Coelacanth being extinct but it's not .
It looks like a cross of a wolf/coyote, a mountain lion and a deer. It has the head and body of a wolf, the tail of a lion, and the legs of a deer. Oh, and are those saber-teeth?
It looks like a looks to be a very sad coyote with demodex folliculorum, mange. One of two types of mange that can be passed from animals to people or vice versa. It most certainly is not a large cat (cougar) or bob cat, it has none of the features of a cat of any kind.
Wild dogs including the Mexican red wolf, coyote and feral exotics will occasionally mate with every breed of domestic dog. Think about that for a moment..
For the people who thought it was a deer remember deer do not have long tails. Also this animal eyes are facing forward which makes it most likely a predator. Deer are typical prey animals that dont hunt . They are herbivoreso so deers eyes would be facing more toward the sides of there heads. This is so they can watch there surroundings so don't get attacked and eaten by another animal.
It’s either more than likely a coyote, a stray dog , or a fox with mange. I just spoke to my local TWRA already and they just picked up a fox with mange and there’s an outbreak going on right now and they’re doing a lot of research.
No way a dog/coyote can get that big, look at how stocky those legs are. Never seen a wild canine with those muscles, see how thick the neck is, and how those jaws look huge. This ain't a normal coyote, this is a damn beast
Let’s ask random people with no zoological background to sensationalize this story…

Interdasting. Here I was thinking a mountain lion banged a deer, who then banged a coyote, who produced this monster.

This creature has also been mistaken for the chupa cabraba ... Or It can be it.

@@mweatherby2968 They are very sweet dogs, my sister had one she named Isis after the Egyptian Goddess. She caught her wild outside our town because the town wanted her put down (since she was basically a wild coyote) so she saved her and kept her. She became the sweetest and most loving companion to my sister and only ever bit someone ONCE out of fear and never again. She passed away about a year ago and my sister was and still is devastated.

lol yeah . there is one , or i think just one here in Arkansas roaming our little town. we have farms lands and natural springs so its been hanging around the secluded area of the Norwood farm fields and my property . it hasn't come after my goats yet but my livestock guardians may be keeping it at bey. It;s tail is short haired with a little bushy bunch at the end of it
Well, one had a T-shirt with an animal on it. So....
gorl, they don’t have the budget for that! 😂
😅
Has anyone noticed that it looks a lot like a thylacine without stripes?
Perhaps some have survived and evolved, losing the stripes over generations. That would be an incredibly great discovery.
My thoughts as well
Did it swim here lol and without the stripes it’s not a thylacine. They’d need enough to breed as well.
As a Zoologist I can confirm beyond a shadow of a doubt, that looks nothing even remotely similar to a Thylacine. Silly fun theory though 👍
Tazmanian devil dog?😮❤
@@JoniMitchell-qi6hr now you may be on to something here! The elusive North American Tasmanian Devil Dog is so rare some question if it ever even existed! We both know better, perhaps they spotted one on camera finally!
It’s 100% canine. Have seen many different pictures over the years of mangy feral dogs that look exactly like this. Instead of jumping to crazy conclusions, let’s instead think of what is the most likely answer. It’s a canine of some sort, maybe hybridized, likely with mange, mystery solved.
Exactly! People going nuts! Its just a bear, dog, lion, pig with a touch of squid somewhere in its genealogy. "Oooooohhh its some bigfoot like thing" lol. Relax folks.
Chupacabra
It's El Chupacabra
That lady who said it was a bobcat blew my mind..has she been living under a rock? 😂
Mange 100. I've seen it before and it deforms the animal until they die.
You never know if someone’s exotic “pet” got loose.
I legit wonder if that is a hyena.
@@MultiKm1that’s exactly what I thought
A coydog, most likely. They can look totally different one side to the other, like the one in town that I thought was maybe a Lab before it turned to look at me and had a straight coyote face. Then we've had some out near me in the rural part of the county, that look more like feral mutts, often bigger than you'd think they'd be. I agree with the skin issues as well, mange can throw anyone off, just look at bears with it.

I’ve seen dogs and coyotes breed on the reservation. They look like this beast and are very hard to catch.
@@snowboarder3n1 I understand they are like mules, they can't reproduce on their own. That's why you see them rarely.
Either a coyote with mange or this is the first confirmed sighting of a Tasmanian Tiger in over half a century after they’ve been reported to be extinct.
Food for thought by the way - We’ve had research going on for decades now to “revive” extinct species and are currently in the process of bringing hybrid Wooly Mammoth’s back from fossil DNA. It is very easy to imagine how “new” versions of extinct animals could be reintroduced into the ecosystem without anyone knowing, this is all hypothetical.
😂😂😂 Tasmanian Tiger - call Forrest Galante! Does it have a passport?!?! That's why they can't find them in Tasmania anymore - they emigrated!!!
I thought the same thing, but it lacks the tiger stripes on the hind end. The Tasmanian tiger is listed extinct, but many sightings have been documented down there, so your guess is as good as mine. However, how in the world would it make it to Texas if that was the case?
Thats what I thought built like a Tasmanian tiger.
Colour and body shape are completely wrong....
It's 100% not a Thylacine 😂
By the looks of it, I'd say It's very possible that a domesticated dog mated with a coyote... Crazier things have been known to happen in the wild lol, but whatever it is I Hope it's friendly and I hope that the next video about this furry mystery isn't because someone put it down. 🍀✌️
I mean.....I'd shoot Big Foot.
Coydogs are not that uncommon actually and a much better guess than some of the other idiotic things I've seen in the comments.

Yes!
Similar conformation.
Thinking the same thing or that weird dog with the huge head in the one el chupacabra video that police filmed running down the road. I fi remember right it was in texas also. Maybe a coy-dog with mainge?
I agree❤
My maternal grandfather bought a coyote-dog hybrid, and had him for many years. The animal never barked, it just yipped and was super hilarious to be around. This animal, believe it or not, looks like a coyote-pit bull mix.
That’s what I was thinking. A coyote bred with a domestic dog.
Same thought here. Whenever I think about a coy-dog my mind instantly goes to skinny and medium size
This one’s thick
It has to be one with a pitbull or something else that’s chonky
No, look at the tail. Why does it look lion like? This is no canine
Could be. In fact that's actually very plausible and more so than some other weird or ridiculous theories all these other people or fools are coming up with in the comments section.
Coyotes and dogs can produce hybrids. And are getting common because of human settlement in close vicinity with coyote habitats. I have fostered a coydog hybrid, the result of a union between a female coyote and a male domestic dog in this case this one is a siberian husky. I am talking about my hybrid and not the one in the video, whatever that is.
This is for sure a chubacobra. Some of the best photos I've seen of one.
Definitely a coyote mixed with a dog my dad had a pit bull and it breed with a wild female coyote and made some wild looking coy-dogs they would come a little closer to people but they where still wild and wouldn’t let you touch them but they would come lay on our porch from time to time as long as you where not outside or near that area
English mother fkr. Speak it?
Strangely enough the first thing that came to mind was some kind of pitbull coyote mix. It just looks so strange lol
At first, I thought it was an herbivore, as it looked like it was grazing, before she explained about the fruit tree and dropped fruit….wild canines would be more interested in eating fruit, than a domesticated dog. If you should discover it’s identity, I hope you’ll come back with a part two, and share that info with us. Thanks for the head scratcher!
Gosh! I love cryptid sightings!
"Babe, wake up! A new cryptid just dropped"
I've seen a strange coyote/dog-like animal a couple of times while riding my bike on Addicks Dam which horseshoes a large wild area. They had the wild colorations you'd expect on a coyote but they seemed much shorter in length and taller than a coyote. Also, I saw them in the middle of the day from a distance of only 20 or 30 yards and they acted too tame to be wild, but looked too wild to be tame. One other interesting feature was the tail....it looked like a very hairy tail you'd expect to see on a coyote but in the bright sunlight you could see a slight indication of the tail having a ringed pattern.
Why not video
Tasmanian Tiger. Look it up

@@secondchance6603 And he had a "doohickey" hanging between his legs

Finally, a Sasquatch picture that isn't blurry! I always knew they were real!
I agree with the skin issue assessment. You would be shocked at the before and after photos of dogs that have severe skin problems, mange. However, coyotes can get mange as well.
Like those who think they've seen a chupacabra and it turns out to be a coyote with mange.
That’s an old Puma Mountain Lion probably very skinny resembling a large dog
Yes...that's my assessment as well. We have plenty of mountain lions where I live. This is definitely an 'old' mountain lion
cats too
Where does the skin look like it has mange? This is a very clear image, so I’m confused, and for those calling this creature a Cougar please know the difference, cause you can’t be that stupid. Cats have short snouts and mouths. This creature head is huge, square shaped and long. No where near no type of feline that exist today. Closes creature this thing resembles is definitely a Tasmanian Tiger.
I saw about 8 of them in moon light last night out in front of my house. Sort of looked like a sheep but had a dog like movement. Not a coyote, not a pig, bulky.... I live in the back country of Seligman AZ.. had large heads. To dark to get photos.

I was surprised when I first learned just how much a starving dingo with protruding ribs and extreme mange could look like a thylacine, especially from a distance.
Mange creates so many of these supposed "monsters" and "chupacabras".
It really does, just without the stripes. The body structure looks almost exactly like that..like a cross a wild cat and a canine animal.
yes, that's exactly what I thought right away, just without strips 🎉
Wow it looks like the very elusive Mutt.....A dog that's mixed with a little bit of everything....Yeah I saw one in my living room yesterday..We named it Neo...
Yup. Give Neo mange (don't do that) and bingo. Chupacabra: coyote with mange. This thing is bigger and doesn't have mange as bad yet. It does not have sabre teeth. It had like a stick in its mouth.
Edit: probably a coyote. I misjudged its size. Usually when they have mange, they get sickly and weigh like 20 lbs. This thing looks ~25-30 lbs. I'm glad my guess aligned with the zoo vets.
Your dog, Neo, The One, sounds awesome BTW. He's a good boy and he probably knows it ( ihope). Give him some scritches from rando on internet (and remind him he's a good boy)
🤣👍
Neo..that’s dope!! I named my daughter after a specific character lol
Clearly, an escaped hyena, either form zoo or tiger king
America had Hyena's that went extinct 😮regular Hyena's don't look like that but the American hyena looks exactly like that 😮they have been reported since the 1700 and someone even killed one and had it mounted in a store and was later given to a museum in Idaho😮it's so many elusive species in our woods and some are even humanoid
Animal artist here: that's a canine (either a coyote or a domesticated dog - it's difficult to tell which from the photos, but the ears make it appear to be a coyote) with mange. His (you can see testicles in one image) body shape and body/head ratio aren't right for a cougar.
Yeah that’s a doglike head. The tail looks like a mountain lion tail a bit but it’s DEFINITELY not a mountain lion.
What about the tusk looking thing? It’s clearly visible.
Thats just a big hoo-ha. Shes out here suffering poor thing.
I googled images and this looks more like a coy wolf then a coy dog.
I do agree with you but... Not a chance in hell that's a coyote with that snout. And are you sure that's testis? I also see nipples that are too big for a male. And when female canines breed A lot their "area" can change.
Every time they see a canine suffering from demodicosis, they pronounce it a mystery.
Animal control is pathetic. I called them one time, because a group of 3 dogs surrounded me while walking and tried to attack me. I was able to get away and called. They would not send anyone unless I gave them all my information. I said the dogs are still there, please send someone so they don't attack a child or anyone for that matter. They wouldn't do it without my full name, address, and other information. They practically wanted an affidavit to protect the community. I said well if they attack someone, you're responsible and hung up.

Would be cool
Smart take, but wrong hindquarters. Probably some stray mongrel or domestic dog-coyote mongrel, judging by its apparent familiarity with suburban environement.
i was thinking a taz angle too. that head and neck.
Ong my first thought
Tasmanian tigers were marsupials, not mammals. It's a stray mongrel dog.
Does bear a resemblance to the North American hyena (shunka warakin), however the very low hocks give it a thylacine appearance.
It's a canine species creature with mange. I've seen one in my neck of the woods recently and they look very creepy.

@@tygerstripes3752 Excuse me? You can even buy mange medicine that’s sold in a form of treats for the wild animals. Murder is always the first option for you, isn’t it?
I believe this animal is called a Dhole . A Dhole is a wild dog but is not typical fond in Texas. It was probably brought over as an exotic pet or escaped a zoo.
The tail has alot of missing fur. But it has the typical black end to the tail that most dholes do have. The black end to the tail fallows up the tall some ways. Also the very lage rounded ears with alot of fur inside the ears that sticks out in a lighter color is another clue. Wild dholes can come in many different reddish browns and blackish shades. But they all seem to have the same fur patterns. I'm pretty positive this is your unknown mystery dog . Please look up pictures of a wild dhole. I do believe most people would agree with me . The big rounded ears with the black ended tail are the biggest clues . Good luck to all and I hope this brings answers for everyone wondering :)
P.S. I WOULDN'T BE WRIGHTNG THIS IF I THOUGHT I WAS WRONG.

@@SatumainenOlentodon’t do it 😂
Google Lens identified it as either a Dingo or a Hyena but both aren't found in Texas nor the United States. Methinks it's just a mange dog.
It's Texas, full of weirdos that collect illegal animals.
Not only that. People are dumping dogs all over. They’re hungry & thirsty. This looks like a dog.
Its probably just a dog but don't rule out non-native animals. Americans like to import every wild animal into this country. So if anyone escaped we could see them on our streets. An example we have more tigers in this country than all the wild tigers in the world. As young kid I found a Chimpanzee here running around.
Maybe the dingo ate your baby!
That's the 1st thing I thought the elusive American dingo
Speaking as a former zookeeper who has worked with both wild canids and wild felids, I can at least confidently say this is not a felid (cat) of any kind. The anatomical proportions are 100% canid. I wish the lady had captured it on video instead of just snapping a couple of photos, as seeing it in motion from potentially multiple different angles would have been much more helpful for identification. My best guess is that it's a coyote-dog hybrid with a mange-like skin condition.
Can you make money filming this?
I’m in Arkansas and saw one of these mythical creatures too . I was riding my electric skateboard and it came out of the bushes chasing a baby deer .

Maybe. Maybe it is a wild or feral animal that has an immune issue and is more susceptible to mange mites. It is very odd that you immediately want to blame a person when this could easily be an example of just a mangy mountain lion or something. No need to blame humanity, we do enough awful shit that we don't need to pad our stats.
what a low iq take. You don't take into consideration the large ears, black tip tail, stocky muscular "straight" shaped body.

That is a Dingo. The people in the area should be extra careful or it will eat your baby.
I saw an animal that looks just like this in the hope Ranch area of Santa Barbara, CA in June 2023. It was so fascinating, looking that I pulled my car over, got out, and I tried to take a picture of it, but it ran off when it saw me. I still think about going back to where I saw it to see if I can find it again, but I probably won’t.

I have seen exactly the same creature crossing a road in Ontario Canada, it surprised me and i was very puzzled by the fact that it didn't have any hair, it seemed to have a skin disease. Happy to see that other people saw it, because every time i was telling my story, people would say that it was probably just a dog or a coyote that i have misidentified...
Up to this day I’ve been wondering if my mind was playing game after a long day of work.
But now that I see this, now that I see your comment… I realized that I’m not the only one who has encountered an animal like this ! I’m from Ontario too and I’m speechless.
The issue is that it doesn't look too dissimilar from a dog with mange.

Dogmen are real sightings go back as far as the early 1800s by French explorers and talked about even further by native Americans
I think it's a Carolina wild dog, also called an American dingo, based on its orange and white colouration, long ears, brushless tail, short fur, and location. However, it could just be a coydog.
No, definitely not. I had a female Carolina Dog, she was the smartest animal I've ever known but this isn't one

It could be a Red Wolf, they are very rare and Texas is in their territorial range. That would be my best guess.

@@thebeeguy1044 we can chalk that up to evolution along with the shedding of the stripes. it has the same features as its early ancestors. prob needed to be a tad bigger this time around
The tail indicated it is a canine, literly one with mange. The head shape and stocky body are reminiscent of a bull terrier and the agouti fur pattern of a coyote or red wolf. Perhaps a mix of the two.
I worked in a Wild Animal Park with exotics as well as native North American species and I have a biology degree and I have no clue, lol. Ears are way too big to be a mountain lion, it has a very strange face for a dog and most dogs will not eat plums? My guess is its a mixed breed dog maybe mastiff which explains the short face mixed with German Shepherd which explains the big ears and it has mange, just a tuft of black hair at the end of the tail. He is not starving by the look of his ribs but has some odd tastes for a dog thus the plums.
Dogs eat all kinds of things, they’re omnivores. I know dogs that eat broccoli and carrots and apples etc

Apparently no one saw it again and people are still arguing about it might have been... 🤔
The animal that they are trying to figure out looks like a Jackal. The only reason I think it’s that is because look at its body and small narrow face and big ear that is what a Jackal has. And they are related to dogs, coyotes, foxes, wolves.

It resembles a lion, more than anything. Maybe a mountain lion and a deer got too friendly in the woods. One of those animals with a deformity.
His body shape is similar to a heeler or some terriers. I’m almost certain it’s a dog with mange. Mange can get very crusty and leave their skin looking leathery like that.

my claim that the chupacabra has not been identified does not "publicize a serious lack of familiarity with current research on the subject", you are magnifying this extremely minor issue to a hilariously stupid scale. it's a blatant fact. we will never be able to know what a "chupacabra" is, because it doesn't exist. we will never be able to break down every sighting--especially not the original ones--and say we know for sure what it is. we DO know that many sightings were either fabricated or were an unfortunate case of a mangey canid--NOT a hyena. the fact that you claim i'm not up-to-date with research yet didn't care to provide any to prove your point is purely idiotic and borderline hypocritical.
lastly, i do not give a single fuck if you have seen a hyena in person. a lot of people have. zoos exist, and they're pretty common. i have seen hyenas in person--both striped and spotted. since the photo we see at 0:57 very clearly has no stripes nor spots, i assume you believe it to be a brown hyena? oh wait, brown hyenas still have stripes... and very long fur... hm. now i'm stumped, i really thought it was going to be a hyena! it's also unfortunate that it has a longer tail than most hyenas, shorter fur than both brown and striped hyenas, a completely different body shape, a different head shape... you know, i'm starting to think it might not be one! crazy how that works.
you'd think that a village with less than 1,000 people would hear about an escaped hyena, anyway, huh? word usually gets around in small towns, dude, and i'm pretty sure an escaped dangerous animal is one of those things that people hear about.

I distinctly remember my mom and I trying to describe it and the only thing we could think of was dog like back and monkey like front. My dad and brother just laughed at us, but we were so amazed and excited about this sighting I know it was real. I mean it wasn’t a dog, I grew up with dogs, and not those rat dogs everyone carries around, like real dogs, so I KNEW it wasn’t a dog. Not a cougar or coyote either, this was something I had never seen before.
@hollyholy641 Your description is absolutely correct
Catdog? Lol Looks similar to the tail of a mountain lion but that is a doglike head and definitely NOT A MOUNTAIN LION. It’s not unheard of for something from Mexico to travel up here. I learned about this wild cat from Mexico- a jaguarundi that comes to Texas sometimes and no one knows what it is when they see it. Even ocelots can be found there. Still not sure what this is though. Those wolf-coyote hybrids can be really weird looking but it’s probably not exactly the right color for that either. Super weird. Probably something exotic someone raised and let free or something like that. I’d have liked to hear the zoo people talk rather than random people on the street.

Yes! The next most obvious thing after it being canine is it's hybrid.
Nonsense. A catdog has a cat head at one end and a dog head at the other.
🎵Alone in the world was little Catdog
I'm thinking mountain lion, wild canines have snouts that are pointy and bushier tails.
Exactly, it’s a dog with skin issues. One of my dogs had a problem like that. More than likely it has scratched off most of its fur from fleas. Hopefully they’re able to rescue it.
That’s a running hyena , a creature long though extinct but used to be native to North America . They pop up every once in a while
Uh, guys? It has saber fangs. Either a time traveler accidentally let loose an ice age animal or it escaped a mad scientist's lab.
They didn't magnify the picture showing the stiff tail for a reason. That's a Tasmanian tiger.
Definitely not.
I’m an animal scientist, and the picture you see is not a dog or cat, it’s a giraffe 🦒
Under rated comment buddy
I knew it!
I honestly dont get why things like this happen to ________ people ever. No video? Only pics?
Not a mountain lion for sure. It's very possible that it's a cross of a dog and a coyote or wolf. I've seen packs of domesticated dogs and coyotes in the high desert but I understand that wolves would kill a domestic dog. Apparently, they don't like other canines, so my guess is yote/dog.
It's always great to see these types of incidents being filmed and photographed using the 'Kodak 2-Pixel Yeti Instamatic'.
Certainly of canine decent. Canines are true omnivores. "Sweet tooth" for berries. Felines are almost exclusively carnivores unless starving. Probably a dog mix: mixed with a wild dog such as a coyote.
It's a DOG! Nothing unusual about it at all.
Many pictures and videos like this circulated decades ago, prompting people to call it a chupacabra. An episode of Monster Quest documented a couple of instances very well.
They are coyotes with mange.
An imported exotic African or Oz prey animal that escaped a game preserve or private owner.
Looks like Thylacin . Originally from Australia . supposedly went extinct in the very early 1900s however they said the same thing about the Coelacanth being extinct but it's not .

It looks like a cross of a wolf/coyote, a mountain lion and a deer. It has the head and body of a wolf, the tail of a lion, and the legs of a deer. Oh, and are those saber-teeth?
Likely a coyote/wild dog hybrid with mange... not really uncommon, just primarily nocturnal and weary of humans.
OMG! That is the ever-so elusive Chupacabra! Either that or a mutant Sasquatch...or maybe a hybrid of the two.
It looks like a looks to be a very sad coyote with demodex folliculorum, mange. One of two types of mange that can be passed from animals to people or vice versa. It most certainly is not a large cat (cougar) or bob cat, it has none of the features of a cat of any kind.
Just a similar tail. Not the right color for a coyote, doesn’t look very mangey.
@@larsonfamilyhousecoyote colors can vary
kinda fat for a coyote.@@maxmanx1294
Wild dogs including the Mexican red wolf, coyote and feral exotics will occasionally mate with every breed of domestic dog. Think about that for a moment..
That is not a coyote. It's definitely something thats been hidden for years ! Finally being seen!
Amciemt aliems
Lol
Yeah right that is Megalodon.
@@caniform-craze2080 your mom is MegaloMom
If that were true then Where TF is Sasquatch? It’s literally a Cross breaded Coyote
So many "creatures" out there we didn't know about exist that many people encounter. Strange world we live in.
Come on people, that's CLEARLY a shapeshifter! How can you think otherwise 😂 *Obvious sarcasm*
I said the same thing. It's obviously a skinwalker, and probably a karen as well
Damn bro, got the whole squad laughin 🤡
Baby Dogman!
For the people who thought it was a deer remember deer do not have long tails. Also this animal eyes are facing forward which makes it most likely a predator. Deer are typical prey animals that dont hunt . They are herbivoreso so deers eyes would be facing more toward the sides of there heads. This is so they can watch there surroundings so don't get attacked and eaten by another animal.
It’s either more than likely a coyote, a stray dog , or a fox with mange.
I just spoke to my local TWRA already and they just picked up a fox with mange and there’s an outbreak going on right now and they’re doing a lot of research.
They need to treat the animals with mange and get them strong
and healthy again. Then put them
back in their home where they came from.🙏🏻🐕
This animal doesn't have mange. The big head suggests that it's a cross between a pit bull and a coyote -- a coydog.
Vague.
@@annebalderston2520 A bad case of mange can never be cured. The animal has to be treated periodically for the rest of its life.
@@teastrainer3604it's a Xoloitzcuintle, just a Mexican hairless dog.
It looks like a hyena to me, but my dad had a dog that looked like a hyena though. She was a very nice dog.
No way a dog/coyote can get that big, look at how stocky those legs are. Never seen a wild canine with those muscles, see how thick the neck is, and how those jaws look huge. This ain't a normal coyote, this is a damn beast
Yes, and it’s in our hill country eating fruit! 🍒 I’m a little bit scared now:)
It's a snipe.. they have them everywhere where I live.
