This is an excellent eyeball
report were the witness (es) obtained an excellent protracted display of the
creature’s characteristics. What is
more, it is exactly what I expect to see if I am looking at a giant sloth. Those long arms and legs are designed to travel
through the trees and te forty foot leap is necessary to travel from tree to
tree. Ears, muzzle large chest and long
limbs and thin body not noted here all scream giant sloth.
The creature is
nocturnal and was likely blinded by the light but also not expecting a close
encounter. This led to the spectacular getaway.
We also see both the
foundation for shape changing stories and werewolf stories. It does not typically present its full size
in what is still a human like stance.
Unwinding make it appear to be shape changing in the dark if you expect
a human being. Its head is enough wolf
like to create the werewolf legend particularly with its bipedal movement added
in.
Again the more data we
recognize the better we are able to characterize this creature. Also do note that it remains unrecognized and
unnamed.
The Creature of Mud
Creek Road

In yesterday's blog, I posted Bipedal 'Wolf-Like' Cryptid Reported Roaming Point Pleasant, WV. My colleague, Pennsylvania UFO / cryptid researcher Stan Gordon contacted me...stating that this incident was similar to the The Creature of Mud Creek Road encounter he investigated. Here is Stan's report:

The Creature of Mud Creek Road
Troy, Pennsylvania
On April 11, 2012, I received a call from the man who, along with his girlfriend, had a frightening encounter with a strange creature on November 20, 2011, outside of Troy in Bradford County, Pennsylvania. The fellow told me that what they saw “scared the hell out of us”. I was able to interview the woman involved on April 26, 2012. After conducting extensive interviews with the driver and his girlfriend I learned the following details.
At about 11:05 pm that evening, they were driving onto Mud Creek Road traveling west towards Highway 14 near Troy. As they continued down the dark road, their attention was drawn to the left side of the roadway. The man, who was the driver, saw some movement and mentioned it to his friend. The woman initially thought that a naked man was crawling on the side of the road. The driver decreased his speed, swerved his truck in the middle of the road and directed the high beams of his headlights towards the subject. The driver stopped about 30-40 feet away. They soon realized that this was not a person, but instead a creature that was crawling very low to the ground. As they watched, the creature moved into a squatting position with its back completely straight, somewhat like the stance of a kangaroo.
The arms of the creature where held tightly to its body. What looked like long claws that resembled the talons of an eagle were easily visible. The claws were estimated to be about 8-10 inches in length. One claw was shorter than the other three. The creature had a muscular body. The head of the beast appeared to be oversized and shaped like that of a wolf. At the top of its head were two pointed bat-like ears that looked to be about 4-6 inches long. The entire creature, according to the man, was covered with “dull wrinkly dark black skin”. The man described seeing large canine-like teeth in its mouth.
[ this hardly gets
better ]
The eyes of the creature were about the size of a silver dollar and were shiny black. The man stated that even though he had his high beams directed at the creature, the eyes did not reflect at all. The man said he looked over the body during the 12 second encounter, and for some reason thought the creature should have wings, but none were apparent. In the squatted position, the creature seemed to be about five feet tall.
At this point, the creature was in the left lane of the road and about 1-2 feet onto the pavement.
As the couple watched in amazement, the creature began to stretch its body. The man said that at this point the animal started to stand up on its back legs while also falling over onto its front feet. The driver said that in this position, the creature seemed to be about 6-7 feet tall. The animal then fell over on all four legs. The witnesses observed that the front claws of the creature was now two feet across the center line of the highway, while the back feet remain one-two feet from the edge of the road.
[ this is a dead ringer for a giant sloth –
arclein ]
The creature then turns it head to the right and looked towards the vehicle. The driver told me that it looked directly at them, with a horrific expression, “like it was panicked”. The fellow saw it take a deep breath. He had the feeling that the creature didn’t realize that it was being observed and when it realized it was- it was like it was caught doing something.
Once it realized it was being observed, it leaned back slightly and then reached forward with its claws. The creature than took one tremendous leap and cleared a seven foot embankment and moved out of sight into a wooded area. The man estimated that leap was about 40 feet long. As it was in the process of leaping, it was perfectly straight and held its front claws forward. The legs, as it was leaping, “were only slightly larger than broomsticks or about the size of a walking crane and were very long”.
Then just a second after the creature was gone from sight something else odd occurred. A large bird, possibly an owl, suddenly rushed at the passenger side window, almost hitting the glass, then took off and did not return. It happened so fast they were unsure if it was an owl or not.
The witnesses indicated that this creature appeared to be changing form. The driver said, “Its shape was nothing like when it was squatted”. The woman stated to me that it “shaped into another form.” She thought it was a dark brown color, and looked like a werewolf with a little back hair. She estimated that when it was leaping into the woods, she thought it stood about 9 feet tall. The woman while reluctant to say it said, “I think it was a man changing into a werewolf”. The man after the experience went onto the internet to try to figure out what he saw, and told me that the closest way he could describe the creature would be a gargoyle with no wings. The man commented, “I will never forget what we saw that night”.
NOTE: Stan noted the number of recent sightings where the witnesses are 'stared downed' by the cryptid...to where the creature seemed surprised that it was being observed. I have noticed this phenomena as well. I look forward to a long discussion with Stan...maybe he'll again join us on BTE Radio in the near future. Lon
