A Monstrous Mix

Nearly a century after it occurred, I seriously doubt there is any chance, at all, of getting a 100 percent definitive answer to a very odd 1920s case referred to in a new post at the Center for Fortean Zoology’s Still on the Track blog.

Quoting from a newspaper report of the day, it states:

“…Great consternation was caused in Kowloon City one night recently when many excited people claimed to have seen a strange and mysterious animal variously described as a bear, a kangaroo, and an orang outang…”

Without doubt, quite a combination!

Here’s where you can find the complete story, if you want to try and figure out what the curious critter really was!
