Kentucky's Giant Sloths




In then past year, I have identified several reports in the Appalachians and elsewhere as indicative of the persistence of a relict population of giant sloths. Only once did an observer actually recognize what it was. This meant that many other reports are out there identifying the creature as bear like.

This reports on the multiply observed Bearilla in Kentucky is dead on.

1 It is Broad-shouldered. This is a hall mark of the Giant Sloth and the Sasquatch for that matter, but not the bear.

2 It has a large muzzle. This is important.

3 Very noticeable front claws. These are used to accommodate climbing in trees and in digging besides tearing prey apart.

4 The creature is aggressive, whereas the bear either charge or scoot and the Sasquatch will avoid.

5 Usually a severe stink is involved because the creature exploits maggots from cached prey.

This item on the Bearilla is about what we would expect. It picks up on the long muzzle and the large claws on the 'hands'. The the word 'hands' is used is instructive. This creature is a four point tree climber and is able to also grip branches.


Kentucky's 'Bearilla'

People who've seen the Bearilla say it's a beast with wolf-like features. sounds like something found only in fairy tales. But some researchers say people have seen the creature and even been attacked by it for decades right here in Kentucky. In LEX 18's Mystery Monday, Courtney Fischer goes in search of evidence of its existence.


Kentucky's back woods keeps quite a few secrets, secrets that if you're lucky will reveal themselves. But some, no matter how patient you are, stay hidden.


Bearilla lurks in the woods, so the experts say, with the last known sighting occurring in 1989.

The
broad-shouldered beast has the body of a bear, and a long, pointed muzzle like a wolf, hands with dagger-like claws and canine teeth. It's allegedly been seen through parts of Kentucky, Wisconsin, Michigan, Canada and Pennsylvania, with dozens of sightings reported.


"Course, the first case in the 1940s," said researcher Ron Coffey. "A young boy claimed to be attacked on a creek bank by the creature. I do not discount that many eyewitnesses. Everybody's just not imagining things and making it up."


Coffy's not found any bones or remains, but says he can prove Bearilla exists a plaster cast of a footprint Coffey says he found the tracks last winter in Bath County and matches the description of a Bearilla's foot. "Every single legend is based on some kind of fact," he said. Stories don't just materialize."

Coffey may have been researching Bearilla for more than two decades, but there's another person who's had his eyes on the woods for just as long. and he lives right across the street. "I think somebody's trying to start a good hoax," said skeptic John Pugh with a laugh. "That's my opinion."


Pugh says he has his own proof there's no Bearilla - his roosters and his chickens that roam his yard. and have never been attacked by a monster beast. "At night time it's always peaceful and quiet," he said, "You don't hear anything going on."


And that's enough for Pugh to know that no seven foot wolf-life creature is lurking in the woods across the way. "I'll believe it when I see it," he said.


But Coffey says it's only a matter of time until another clue surfaces or another eyewitness comes forward proving Bearillas exist.


LEX 18 wanted to talk to someone who claims to have actually seen Bearilla, but Coffey says the last surviving witness recently died. - LEX18
