Every once in a while, as a treat, I pick a paragraph by Bernard #Heuvelmans and try and parse out what the heck is going on. The #BeastOfGévaudan appears on his checklist of “Apparently Unknown Animals” (i.e. #Cryptids ), fair enough… but the paragraph self-debunks and proposes feral dogs and serial killers (!?!) as being behind the legend (!?!). As there is no new species this shouldn’t be #Cryptozoology but its “Father” apparently thinks otherwise! Bizarre.
