@@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.

Yea just having a camera doesn't make you a photographer. By that I don't mean "she's not a pro" but that it's not everyone's first thought to get a better zoom when they are startled and trying to catch something. People that are more used to photography will be more likely to frame the shot. And the zoom quality of these phones and OIS still aren't that great to me despite what they claim in reviews.

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.

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.

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?
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
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.
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
@@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.
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.
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.
Smart take, but wrong hindquarters. Probably some stray mongrel or domestic dog-coyote mongrel, judging by its apparent familiarity with suburban environement.
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 RUclips video where a man had dog that had a coyote as a friend so it could be possible..
It’s not a mountain lion bc the tail is too skinny and too short and the legs are too long and too skinny. It’s grazing so it looks like a calf. I know the second picture looks like it has long fangs but that’s probably something sticking out of its mouth.
My first impression is some weird cross between a hyena and lion. Glad to see someone post about an ancient type of north American wild hyena that actually exists. Extinct or otherwise.
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.
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.
@@oljimeagle6779 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 👍
. MUST BE A SLOW NEWS DAY DOWN IN HILL COUNTRY VILLAGE. . No fires, auto accidents, or armed robberies. . . "Run those fuzzy photos of that dog and call it a mystery."
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".
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.
Jesus christ... its a canine with mange... Why do people automatically jump to "its a cryptid!!!" Coyotes are omnivores and love fruit too unlike most stray dogs
It's called a Ravager. They usually come in packs of 3-4 with the strongest being the alpha. Use bolas and shocking tranq darts and tame them with raw mutton. They can travel up and down zip lines and can carry metal at a reduction to weight so they're fairly useful on Abb.
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’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 .
@@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?
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.
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 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.
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.
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)
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
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.
@@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
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.
It’s either a dingo or the Texas Wolf. Dingo are the exact color fur but do not have a black tipped tail. Texas Wolves also have the same color and do have a black tipped tail. It’s probably eating native fruit too, so more than likely a wolf.
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 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.
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.
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.

I've seen this at a ball field right before dusk. Railroad tracks were thru the trees I was mowing the outfield when I noticed it staring at me, eerie feeling. I'm happy for the 6' outfield fence This was in Chattanooga
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'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
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.
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.
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… 😲🤯
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.
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.

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.
An imported exotic African or Oz prey animal that escaped a game preserve or private owner.
Doesn’t it say in revelation that there will be strange beast sightings in the last days
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.
It looks like a Tasmanian tiger without the stripes on the back. Maybe it's some subspecies of this mammal that survived to this time. 😀
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.
Clearly, an escaped hyena, either form zoo or tiger king
This is for sure a chubacobra. Some of the best photos I've seen of one.
It’s like Man-Bear. But it’s not. It’s Cougar-Deer! 😂
Its manbearpig

@@HeyImDateMike Half man, half bear, half pig
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.
Chupacabra
Pretty sure that's what happened coyote and dog mated.....theres a RUclips video where a man had dog that had a coyote as a friend so it could be possible..
Dogs and coyotes go into heat in different seasons. It’s not common.
It’s not a mountain lion bc the tail is too skinny and too short and the legs are too long and too skinny.
It’s grazing so it looks like a calf. I know the second picture looks like it has long fangs but that’s probably something sticking out of its mouth.
My first impression is some weird cross between a hyena and lion. Glad to see someone post about an ancient type of north American wild hyena that actually exists. Extinct or otherwise.
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
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.
@@keep-your-hope yes! They won’t remove the coyotes here without “proof” LOL the proof was dinner!
So much truth to your statement, and not just with Canidae either!
Except it's a bear with mange.
@@oljimeagle6779 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 👍

. No fires, auto accidents, or armed robberies.

. "Run those fuzzy photos of that dog and call it a mystery."
That is absolutely no mountain lion
I know he’s not, but he kinda looks like a Tasmanian Tiger
Mo that's a Chupacabra
@@bv657 Literally said that at the beginning.
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 🎉
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.
Jesus christ... its a canine with mange...
Why do people automatically jump to "its a cryptid!!!"
Coyotes are omnivores and love fruit too unlike most stray dogs
It's called a Ravager. They usually come in packs of 3-4 with the strongest being the alpha. Use bolas and shocking tranq darts and tame them with raw mutton. They can travel up and down zip lines and can carry metal at a reduction to weight so they're fairly useful on Abb.
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
It reminds me of one of those thingamybobs.
@@secondchance6603 And he had a "doohickey" hanging between his legs
I have heard that dogs and coyotes mate.
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 .

@@ES11777 There is no 'mange medicine'. The animal has to be dipped.

It looks like a Mountain lion and a dog, a very interesting breed indeed!
It kinda reminds of the movie Second Hand Lions. Great movie BTW.
IMPOSSIBLE !!
It looks like a cross between a deer and a dog.
Yeah catdog okay
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.
That's a coyote afected by a zarna skin infection.
"Here are some pictures taken with a potato, Don't you wonder why it doesn't look like a regular dog with mange?" 8/
Gosh! I love cryptid sightings!
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!
It’s a dog or a coyote. Anyone who said a cat doesn’t know anything about cats!

Kayyyyy
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.
Did it have fangs that jutted out??
so you just abandoned the poor guy? jeez
Finally, a Sasquatch picture that isn't blurry! I always knew they were real!
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
It's a big cat, a mountain lion. You can tell by the tail.
It’s a poor precious animal with mange that someone just threw away …😕
That could be too.
That can be treated if they found him.
I totally agree with you 😢
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.
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
Apparently people have never seen the mange on an animal. Because it doesn’t look like a healthy canine like that
My guess is.... someone got their hands on an Australia dingo, and it got away and crossed with a wolf, dog or coyote.
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
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.
Looks like someone snuck a dingo into the country. Could also be a strange mix between a wolf and some kind of domesticated mutt.
Where is the link to the website
Looks like a Tasmanian Tiger, but I think it’s more likely a dog or coyote needing medical/skin treatment.
German Shepherd with mange is my guess.
@@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.
At a glance that was my first thought thylacine .....😂.
omg, yes a tasmania tiger for sure! great minds think alike🎉
@@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
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
Given the guesses here, I'm a bit surprised someone hasn't definitively claimed it to be a javalina-thylacine hybrid!
By the way, I'm actually looking for the thylacine...yes, Texan in Tassie go figure...
It’s either a dingo or the Texas Wolf. Dingo are the exact color fur but do not have a black tipped tail. Texas Wolves also have the same color and do have a black tipped tail. It’s probably eating native fruit too, so more than likely a wolf.
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.
Uh, that animal had hair...
I mean, the thing in these photos is probably a dog or a coyote.
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.
It's a Dingo bigger than a coyote smaller than a wolf!
Its pathetic how "experts" who dont have an answer always make up the stupidest explanations instead of admitting they dont know.
From the 1st photo it appeared to be a " Cross Between " a Coyote and a mountain lion !
Your close try a wolf and coyote mix
It's most definitely a mixof something
no wolves in cali.@@hollyedwards4789
Thank you for the weather report it’s always good to know ahead see what’s going on around us😁🌅💕🦋
The clearest photos of bigfoot ever!
Strongly resembles a Thylacinus cynocephalus or Tasmania Tiger, but those have been reported as extinct since 1936.
It's a poor dog with mange! Just chill.
Thank you 💯
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.
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
I bet you call bigfoot pictures a blessing too
You're thinking some variety of North American hyena, aren't you?
In this "day and age" why does the photo have to be blurry? Same with big foot, Loch Ness monster etc, the photo is always blurry.

I've seen this at a ball field right before dusk. Railroad tracks were thru the trees
I was mowing the outfield when I noticed it staring at me, eerie feeling.
I'm happy for the 6' outfield fence
This was in Chattanooga
That's the new dog species everyone calls a chupacabra.
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'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
"...a very large animal..." Says tiny petite male.
I have for sure 100 percent seen cougars in Lake Travis/Spicewood area.. not too far. We def have them in the hills.
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.
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.
That has some massive canines. Definitely not a coyote with mange. It's short furred, large head.
almost looks like a Tasmanian Tiger, can even see the feint stripes along its back.
I saw that type of creature in Maryland a year or 2 ago. No one believed me.
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.
@hollyholy641 Your description is absolutely correct
That looks like the tazmanian tiger. Without stripes. That probably could be an offspring
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… 😲🤯
Chupacabra
More like a Dingo to me.
a Texas Tiger.... a Texacine Australia's Tasmanian Tiger / Thylacineis extinct but no worries. There's a cousin in Texas.
Looks like a tasmanian tiger to me, too! Didn't they recently clone one? Maybe it got loose! Lol
Probably a feral dog. Maybe a half breed coyote? Not much more to it than that unless someone's dingo got loose.
Thats an abandoned domestic dog with severe mange!
Poor thing 😢
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.
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.
Seems like a outcast wolf if he’s slumn with coyotes.
They are here in FL as well!
Looks like a dingo to me.
