    Small correction: the inhabitants of Gévaudan have NEVER said that they were attacked by a werewolf! People who have been lucky (or rather unlucky) to come across the Beast have all said that it just looks "like a wolf but bigger". The Beast of Gévaudan stunt being a werewolf is a very recent invention. In NO period document we see written any mention of a lycanthrope.

      I think it may have been a heyna wolf hybrid up to this day the farmer remains a hero as history remembers it .But it still remains a mystery to this day how did this kind of monster 👹👹👹👹 survied for so many years , many also speculated that it might have been an extinct species of an prehistoric wolf last of its kind.But after all a legend is a legend.

    the marin report confirmed the slain beast to be of canid origin. most likely a wolf that had bred with a shepherd dog. read monsters of the gevaudan. unfortunately the remains of the beast were buried in the gardens of versaille with no record of where exactly. id love to have them discover its remains and do a dna test.

    The best bk is likely "The Gevaudan Tragedy: The Disastrous Campaign of a Deported 'Beast'," by Karl-Hans Taak. It's told as a mystery, w/graphs & charts showing when the beast attacked, males vs. females/kids, ages, time of year, etc. SPOILER! Mr. Taake surmises it was a young lion & able to bite thru neckbones (licking heads clean w/its abrasive tongue), which dogs/hyenas can't do. The beast also apparently attacked a man on a horse & couldn't be shaken off (aka a big cat), & acted as did the lions of Tsavo in its hunting behavior. Mr. Taak's ending is the scariest, however, saying that the beast had likely escaped from a traveling carnival as it migrated from a popular road frequented by such carnivals, & that the beast was just ONE example of such animals escaping & eating the townsfolk. He sited multiple incidents that never got the press this beast did. Mr. Taak sympathizes w/the beast, saying it was acting naturally & hunting as it would in its native land. He says it was never caught, & avoided all traps & poisons laid for it, & likely died on a highland many years later. It's a good read. Thanks for your video! :-)

    Well i heard that story far more often in a veeeery different way. Cuz after the beast was killed. The killings continued. The animal wasn't taxidermied and was rotten when it arrived in the kings place. So yeah... No one was decorated. But the got a pat on the back... The boy that saved his friend did get an academic scholarship payed off by the king.
