Animal X – Part 7 Monster or Murderer – Animal X Natural Mystery Unit | Storyteller Media
Almost 250 years ago, a frightening creature lurking at the foot of the French Alps is said to have killed more than 300 people. The creature has become known as the Beast of Gevaudan. Daniel and Natalie step back in time to 18th century France where they visit the killing ground of this mysterious historical monster. Countless theories hang over the Beast’s identity. In a hunt for the truth, the Animal X – Natural Mystery Unit talks with descendants of the Beast’s victims, local historians and animal experts. As they trace the myth through historical documents and official royal records dating back to the 1760s, they come across startling evidence about the true identity of this voracious killer. Some say the beast was a wolf, others claim it was an exotic animal imported from a far away country. Was this really the work of a rogue animal with a taste for human blood or was a serial killer involved in this horrific killing spree? The Animal X – Natural Mystery Unit piece together the evidence in this fascinating investigation. Will they solve the mystery that has puzzled generations?

Just happened on a pic of a wolverine and was thinking it sounded similar. They are smaller and all, but who knows how much was embellished. Don’t know if they are or ever were in the Alps, but there is the whole theory of an escaped exotic. It has the stripe, short straight? ears, bushy tail, some reddish coloring. Just a thought..I know they are tremendously strong. Here’s a pic and thats just one type. Can’t imagine one attacking. .defenders.orgwolverinebasic-facts
3:18 looks like? a spotted hyena which was the one of the 4 types of hyenas that attacked in that way according to them, so id like to know if that painting was made to describe ‘the monster’, ( and they said it couldn’t been a hyena since it was never described as spotted ) … couse if so theyve made a big miss :p
It? was actual a hyena
recent investigation confirmed it, it? was a trained hyena
IN THE PICTURES? OF THE BEAST IT IS SHOWN WITH AN EXTREMELY LONG TAIL WHICH DRAGS ON THE GROUND, A HYENAS TAIL IS QUITE SHORT
IT? WAS BIGFOOT’S DOG !!!
SMARTEST GUY THEY’VE INTERVIEWED SO FAR.
HUMANS HAVE BEEN KNOW TO? USE VIOLENCE!
ye ive seen it thats where i? got all my info from
that is very true. there is a possiblity that it may be a? murderer but who says that a demon of some sort my not go after men and only the vulnerable woman and child?
@wlanus im not saying that the woldog theory is in correct and in reality i belive that the wol dog is more of a? suspect in this than a hyena but i strongly agree that it would be larger n stronger than its pure parents but i still have a small doubt, how can 11 wolf dog kill so many well this brings us to the theory that maybe there were more than 1. btw gratz i strongly support you thoery on the wolfdog!
@wlanus hmm i can see you point a hyena is not? agile enough but many others also belive it was a “hairy” hyena a smaller faster breed of hyena that is well known for many small teeth ,also people then could have mistaken the hyena even further since of the long hair this type of hyena posses ,but i do agree on your theory that it might be a wolfdog cross but i think it might have been too small,
the real suspect may even be a unknown species for all we know!
offspring of dogue de bordeaux/wolf. Discription of the redish fur, white splash on chest, large size? ect…
I think it’s a cave hyena. They once habitated abundantly across Eurasia until it? was supposedly extinct 10,000 years ago..
me too?
thecreature hadhairlike awolfhound?
i think i know what wass the story:
Castell said he killed the beast at about 30yards whichis a 1 in 20 chance? to hit it with a silver bullet since silver is a weak metal, also as it said in the video that it came from africa maybe it was imported and could be trained and i know that hyenas are very trainable wild animals so did castel import a animal to casue mayhem and then to kill it to become a hero?
The beast killed during 4 years…
I don’t understand what you mean by “how the fuck can a human? live for? hundreds of years”
its? probably a man bear pig or something lol
I think there’s a chance some victims, the oens on their own, might’ve been killed by locals for revenge, money, robbery, etc but the majority were done by the beast? and there’s a good chance someone was using the beast as a murder weapon
Think about it, it would be a hybrid? between a Wolf, German Shepard, and a Hyenna. A serial killer might use this killing machine as a weapon so as not to have his own DNA attached.
asian hyena + mastiff?
i say its wolf combines? with a sheep
A bear? or a lion..
if it was a serial killer what about the first attack. you dont see like a wolf big? as a cow every day
