Not sure why someone downvoted you for posting this, because it's true! They have maned wolves at the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans and their enclosure reeks of marijuana.
i mean it would be impossible for this to inspire the chupacabra myth since these live on a whole different continent than where chupacabra originated…
The uncanny valley effect. It’s so close to looking like something familiar, but slightly off (those long legs) so your brain is like “….I don’t like that…”
Probably because it moves weird... its legs are so long it has a modified gait moving both legs on one side of its body at the same time, like the giraffe. They both do this so their elbows don't bump into their knees when they go for a stroll
It's just the way this is shot. Seeing them up close, it's more apparent they're just a very unique looking canid and not scary. They also have a weird call, called a roar bark, and most of their diet is fruits and vegetables.
They almost did, their populations are recovering now but we’re not completely sure of how much since they are super shy and secretive creatures. They were killed because hey were mistaken for werwolves and I think had a part to play in the chupacabra myth.
Please note these rules:
This creature looks like he guides souls across the River Styx
No, he is the one who hunts them
This creature looks like a fox got busy with a greyhound
From behind all I see is a tiny moose lol
more like river of saint Francisco.
I saw one of these at 9pm in NE Washington, DC. One of the most sinister things I’ve ever seen
There’s literally someone who does this and he doesn’t resemble anything close to a wolf
Looks like a fox fucked a horse
Lobo Guara - we love them in Brazil, also they smell like marijuana
Whoa. They smell like weed?
Fun fact: Blijdorp zoo, which is in Rotterdam, Netherlands, had the cops called on them once because people thought they had a secret weed plantation.
And aguará guazú in Argentina, Guaraní for "zorro grande" (big fox)
And they are also endangered 😭
They use urine to mark their territory like a lot of animals, but their urine smells almost exactly like cannabis.
Hey son what's that smell in your room?
Not sure why someone downvoted you for posting this, because it's true! They have maned wolves at the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans and their enclosure reeks of marijuana.
You are completely right.
Was about to add this! Every time I go to the zoo, they smell like the local weed shop.
Me a pothead: Yoooooo who smoking, pass that over here!! Gets mauled by a pack of Maned wolf.
“It’s not me officer! It was the manned wolf I swear!”
Is it just me or does it almost move like I would expect a cat would move?
The delicate paw placement
It moves like a person in a really good fursuit doing their absolute best.
I think it's the gait. Moving both legs on one side together is more of a cat style
Yea… hard to believe there is a man in there
Also the shoulder movement up and down
I think that gait is an "amble".
Almost like a person walking on all 4
So you're not sure how a cat moves?
They are also on the 200 reais bank note in Brazil
I like how that version just looks like a tall good boi doggo ready to play catch and in real life it's a sleep paralysis demon.
That’s cool
Aw that's so cool. We have animals on our Pesos but I can't believe we forgot about the Aguara guazú :( they're so cute
Eles são bons pets?
This is definitely what inspired the Chupacabra myths
iirc it almost went extinct because people killed it thinking they were werewolves.
Probably one of these with mange
Chupacabra is not a very common myth in Brasil, I'm more inclined to say that the manned wolf inspired a lot of werewolf stories instead.
Chupacabra was an urban legend in Puerto Rico in the mid-90s. It has nothing to do with anything in Central or South America.
Wrong. There arent maned wolves in Puerto Rico
i mean it would be impossible for this to inspire the chupacabra myth since these live on a whole different continent than where chupacabra originated…
Why is this creepy?
Because it looks like Chupacabra
The uncanny valley effect. It’s so close to looking like something familiar, but slightly off (those long legs) so your brain is like “….I don’t like that…”

Seems very similar the Lupin's werewolf design in Prisoner of Azkaban.
Because it's a dinosaur dog
Oh good. I'm not the only one who thinks this.
A lot of people would shit themselves if they see this thing tbh. It's creepy for me because of it's appearance of a human-wolf mixture.
Yo that’s Professor Lupin
Why is this so true
I came here for this comment. Knew it had to be here!
They move both legs on one side at the same time. Makes their stride look weird
Dogs will do that sometimes, just depends on their gait
Isn’t that how cows walk also?
Maybe it looks weird bc it's closest to how we walk?
Leggy boi.
almost looks like some sort of eldritch horror trying to mimic a fox. terrifying looking
It's just the way this is shot. Seeing them up close, it's more apparent they're just a very unique looking canid and not scary. They also have a weird call, called a roar bark, and most of their diet is fruits and vegetables.
Radagon's red wolf
Bruh you're a wimp. That's just a cool looking animal.
Honestly gives me hyena + fox vibes
Is no one else also seeing a horse in these things?
Um that’s a Pokémon, I reckon
Maybe fire/dark type.
Damn, my battery died, I can't catch it on Go!
It’s literally a Thievul from gen 8
It's almost like Pokemon were inspired by real animals... Weird.
I love it when I see an animal that I've never seen before! So cool!
Yeah that’s a skinwalker
I wouldn't worry about it.
L E G
This creature looks straight out of elden ring
That's for sure that wearwolf teacher from Harry Potter
Glad someone else saw it too.
…All the single ladies…
And their pee smells like pot, so I’ve been told
They are regal in their own right.
We call it Lobo Guará em Brasil
The forbidden good boy
The bad boy 😎
Not really forbidden, a very gentle creature that is easily frightened, pretty much like a fox rather than a wolf.
Super cute!
Yes!!
Legz for dayz
That's not a wolf.
Did you know butterflies aren't actually made of butter?
You went full Walken with your last sentence.
This looks like one of those animals you see in those little extinct species books.
Musk wolf
The peacock mantis shrimp is neither a shrimp, mantis or peacock.
The title literally says what it is, why are you crying wolf?
Leggy! 🥰💕
It's long front legs and humped back remind of Professor Lupin as a werewolf
Nope, don’t like that.
Leggy fox
That thing would look great with high heels on
Red XIII! Use Cosmo Memory!
Exactly what I thought. Honestly cant believe more people didnt. Dead ass ringer.
Are we 100% sure that isn't a chupacabra?
You mean El Chupacabra!
I can totally see how this would inspire tales of skinwalker-like creatures
Now I see where they got “werewolves” from.
Mullet puppy
And aardwolves are mohawk puppies
Wow it looks like a hyaena
Aguara guazu best animal ever
SKINWALKER !
Oh my. So tall! They’re beautiful!!
He’s beautiful! Almost seems like the truest meaning of a Mutt, looking like a Fox, dog, and more!!
What a beautiful beast!
Surprisingly they’re not endangered. Totally looks like something humans would hunt to extinction just for the lolz.
They almost did, their populations are recovering now but we’re not completely sure of how much since they are super shy and secretive creatures. They were killed because hey were mistaken for werwolves and I think had a part to play in the chupacabra myth.
Why it looks like some lanky-ass werewolf?
It's like a Hyena and a fox had an ugly love child
Full metal alchemist flashbacks :,( RIP
And it sounds like hell
I can't wait to hear a Furry's opinion on this.
Are you sure you want to hear it?
They are the leggy bois
T H E L E G G Y Z O N E
It looks like a hyena-horse. A horsena.
Hyena on stilts?
Looks like a cross between a dog and a horse with the moves of a cat.
What am I looking at? My brain is rewiring. Someone feed this to an AI algorithm, I wonder what it is identified as
Daddy long legs
It's hard to identify what makes it look so incredibly creepy but it's the walk. Moving both legs on a side at a time is just 'off'.
Such a majestic looking animal
It has such a dainty tail!
That thing looks like no stranger to murder lol
That's a fucking werewolf
Chupacabra
That's a beautiful- although terrifying- animal
The only living one? That sucks.
That’s a furry. Just a skinny legs and arm furry.
If you think it looks spooky, you should hear what it
Why is that deer cosplaying as a fox? Has the debauchery of FurAffinity reached that far?
Pretty sure that’s two kids in a furry costume
I think I’ve found my new scariest looking animal
Looks like how they describe skinwalkers
I would've totally believed that thing was a werewolf if I spotted that in the middle of the night.
Flaunting those black thigh-highs like a motherfucker.
Nightmare Time
PONY DOG!
Chupacabra
Bro thats a skinwalker
That looks vaguely human and it’s terrifying
Any psychologists out there care to explain why thise long legs make me feel uneasy?
I love his long legs😭
He looks like a fox on steroids
oddlyTerrifying
Uhhh im pretty sure thats a wendigo. The person who took the video is most likely dead by now...
It's beautiful yet terrifying at the same time. I'm scared, but I want to hang out with it.
What in the narnia fuck
It's when I see shit like this I realise how scary it must have been a long time ago and how myths/legends would have come to be.
That’s a lot of leg.
Zeebuoy
Danger pony
Fucking unit!!!
The worlds so fucked up right now. That skinwalkers are just out in broad daylight and no one gives a shit.
El Chupacabra
They also love fruit which j find adorable
My new favorite animal
I see that at night
They are harmless thx god
Exactly what I imagine a skin Walker to look like
Spider wolf!
I know a fucking skinwalker when I see one
That’s a chupacabra.
Bro that's a skinwalker
Moon must be full.
Helllllll no
Looks like a rabid horse
That is basically the fashion model of predators
Also scary as shit
Slenderman’s best friend
Esta atraz de ahi! It’s behind !
Nightmare puppers?
My local zoo has one of these and they smell like a skunk if you are downwind from them.
What a beast! Evolution is crazy.
I'm fuckin moving if I see this son of a bitch strolling down the street. Fuck that.
That shit is creepy
I hope that furries never have sex with them agai...oh come on
Hate it.
Looks like the tallest canid in the world. Jeez. That thing is tall af
savevideobot

Hyena fox.
He looks like a dog walking on stilts
That fox is kinda big
That’s terrifying. I honestly thought it was a horse when I first saw it too.
