Murderous Creature On The Loose In Argentina?

Residents in Sante Fe, Argentina are on edge after a mysterious half-man half-wolf creature killed a Pitbull and a German Sheppard. The creature had its picture taken while it was leaving the scene. This is where things get weird…well more suspicious. After lurking around the dark web all signs seemed to point to a youtube channel called UFOMania. Before I decided to become a writer, I went to school studying Animal Management, learn about animals, the science behind studying them, and Animal Husbandry (taking care of them in a zoological setting), so my interest perked and I wanted to take a closer look at this “creature”. From looking at its limbs, head shape, and posture, I began to think that this creature looked like a hairless emaciated bear which would explain why it would attack two dogs. Most bear species, contrary to popular belief, are omnivores (eat both plants and meat) with the only true carnivore bear species being the
