Title: Hyena in Mississippi?????
Post by: The Shadow on Apr 09 2008 - 05:32PM
Tim McCary of Mississippi has exclusively shared the following video with Cryptomundo. The creature caught with his game video cam was photographed last fall 2007, in southwest Mississippi. Specifically, it was taken in a place called “Anna’s Bottom,” just north of Natchez, Mississippi.

I am from Mississippi. Actually grew up around Natchez. I've traveled the Natchez Trace many times. I'm not sure about Hyena's but we have a lot of Cayotes down there and we even have a lot of them were I live now in Memphis, TN. I believe the Hyenas are a little bit more premative than the Cayotes but to me this one sure does look like a Hyena.  Also I did watch a show on the discovery channel about Hyenas about a year ago and this guy was basically living with a pack of them. It had taken him years to be accepted into this one pack that were completely wild and then he would find cubs and raise them and try and get them to be accepted into the pack.....which was a very hard thing to do. They don't readily accept outsiders.  But the reason he was doing this was bcause the wild Hyenas are an endangered species.

You are right SethBuka....... it could have been a wild dog or a cayote that was walking funny. Qu But the tail was cropped like a Hyena and it did appear to have the spots.  Also the hair was short and choppy like the Hyena. It really does look like a Hyena.

Oh yeah Survivorman......after you watched it I went back and tried and it let me watch the video also. Hmmm don't know what was up with that..?? Qu
