Are The Hyena-Like Cryptids Being Spotted Actually Giant Sloths? Wait, What?

A recent item regarding a putative hyena sighting on the Eastern seaboard has helped put a number of apparently unrelated lines of inquiry together. As posted here there are a lot of sightings failing to identify the creature. Yet the information often is conforming. We are observing a bushy tail and we are observing a Mohawk like mane as well likely raised to show display and down otherwise. The hind legs are very strong as well.

These same features are been reported for the land based chupacabra reports and this means that they are the same lineage. I am also seeing a wide variation in reported body size but that conforms to female male differences and other variation.

The recent report identifying it as a hyena is actually simply wrong but it tells us that the coloration is similar. It also reminds us just how easy it is to misidentify most creatures unless they sport a noteworthy trait that forces them apart. Maybe we are been spoiled by bears, lions and bigfoot.

I have also posted that the best suspect genus is that of the giant sloth. This is important because they evolved from a completely different life way that we are now piecing together. They may even drain blood for food although i still prefer unknown giant vampire bats for that trick. What they do do is kill and bury their victims. That is important because that is how they have avoid us so successfully. We never find their victims.
