Whatever this thing was, it was first reported as another big cat sighting, until police saw it and noticed that it bore no resemblance to a cat.


“It was very muscular in appearance and several officers thought it was a wolf.

“Its front legs were bigger than its back legs and it had a long tail which touched the ground. It just didn’t look right.”

:hairraise Well that is different! We often have sightings of black panthers in Wales but I've never heard of a white hyena sighting before . . . mind you the local RSPCA & police reckon it is just a big cross breed dog
I'm going to keep my eyes open anyway!!!:eyez:

My first thought was a German Shepherd, their hind legs are shorter than their front legs. Don't know about the tail though.

American type German Shepherd Dogs tails often touch the ground when standing still...probably was one of them......
