RE: what is This Thing
First of all this is not someone's pet. It has short pointed ears
and it had fangs that curled upwards. And tommorrow makes a
week and still no owners and no one has seen this thing before
except when crossing a road chasing animals.
I think Airborneguy is most likely close to what it is. One thing
is for sure is that DNA samples have been sent out to different
locations. Calls have been reported to have come in from all over
the country, as well as most of the world. The most calls are
coming from Germany. The picture came from the Bangor Dailey
News paper. The story origanted out of the Sangerville News.
Until the results are back it can be anyones guess as to what the
heck it is. Myth around a creature simular to this has been going
around this area for sixteen years. So hopefully this will clear it
all up.

You're asking the same pool of people that consists of agood percentagewho can't tell the difference between a Bobcat and a Mt. Lion?[:-]
This should be good.
(I'm just glad the picture wasn't taken in PA.
)
Had to LOL at that one

RE: what is This Thing
I think the biggest concern here would be 1) How long has it been out
there. 2) Has it bred with other animals to pass it's traits on. 3) And
how many more may be lurking from the breeding that created this one.

RE: what is This Thing
The earlyDNA test results say it is a canine, it shows it had a dog for a
mother and the father is unknown at this time. However more testing is
needed to see if the dead animal had genetic material from a wolf or any
other species. One part of the mystery that remains is the excat breed
of dog. The sample was really degraded and we were lucky. It is not
believed to be the same animal that killed the doberman and mauled
the rottweiler. And quote " I think there still is a mystery beast still
out there in the woods around Turner " the crypozoologist working on this.
