Sir Wearer of Hats Posted August 13, 2020 #14 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Whatever happened to that fella who called everything some form of “dogman” or Hyrax? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a few documentaries on the condition. I (possibly incorrectly) assumed OP was more referring to the cryptid stories. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michigan_Dogman But I agree that it may have a grain of truth that the condition may have inspired some folklore. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buuuut that's just me Algonquian tribes have "Wolf Shaman" who wore movable masks make from their skulls, acted as "spiritual policemen". They were a secret society which settlers and trappers caught glimpses of. Hence the legend was born. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soooo... the narrator explains how they can improve the quality of the original film, and demonstrates it on the footage of the car. ... but then does not use this technique on any of the footage of the monster ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
