Beast of Bray Road

A highly muscular, upright-walking canine that seamlessly shifts between quadrupedal and bipedal locomotion to terrorize the rural roadways of Wisconsin.

Etymology. Named after the rural thoroughfare of Bray Road in Elkhorn, Wisconsin, where it was first prominently sighted.

Anatomy. It is a terrifying freak of nature standing 6 to 7 feet tall, covered in fur, with pointed ears and a long wolf nose. It possesses an incredibly muscular, humanoid-style torso and large, glowing red or orange eyes.

Ecology. Inhabits the terrestrial, agricultural environments and woodlands surrounding Elkhorn, Wisconsin.

Behavior. It exhibits advanced locomotion, capable of rapidly shifting to move upright like a man or sprint on all fours to chase deer. It scavenges roadkill and aggressively charges vehicles, leaving long claw marks on car doors.

Mythology. A massive spate of local werewolf sightings in the 1980s caught the immediate attention of the national press. Skeptics and biologists maintain the creature is simply the misidentification of a large dog, a gray wolf, or a bear.
