How many of you have ever seen a bear of any age with ears like that or foot pads in that configuration ?

Clearly canid but maybe dog/wolf hybrid.

I thought I saw a black panther one night but it was just a blackbear with a long tail.
I think a lot of these black panther sightings are really just longtailed bears.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Can't see much would make me think bear in the pictures. Like White think is a wolf/dog cross of some kind.

I recently saw a chupacabra in extreme eastern Mt. while turkey hunting. This creature crossed the road in front of us at 2 in the afternoon around 80 yds out. Running as fast as it could. Did not have a good look at its head as it was quartering away. This thing was fully furred,had no tail and was jet black. It was also witnessed by my hunting partner. We drove up and bailed out and ran to where it was but it dissapeared. Probably 25 - 30 lbs.We both said to each other WTH is that. we came up with 99% Black Bobcat 1% chupacabra. I have seen all kinds of critters and was not drinking or smoking. Wat you'll think?

Just a canine cross. Nothing to see here, move along everyone, keep moving.
