Leicestershire BCIB representative Donna Brown reports:
I received a phone call from a very worried lady (OAP) tonight..She was worried by a large black animal that was moving about in her hedge at the bottom of her garden, because she was only a few miles away I decided to have a look.
When I reached the location I could see the outline of something black fairly big in the hedge, I waited inside the bungalow for about 1/2 hr and this thing had’t moved so I decided to go out and have a closer look, I walked right up to it picked it up and plonked it in her bin…still chuckling about it now, the look on the poor woman`s face when I went out and picked it up – have you guessed yet!!!! Yes it was a case of the local black bin liner… I think she felt a bit embarrassed, so I reassured her
by explaining we have had sightings what people thought was bin liners and they actually turned out to be a large cat..

RE: Sighting of black & stocky cryptid seen on Hound Tor near Dartmoor during summer of 2007. This cryptid bears slight resemblance to a Tasmanian devil.
Many of the cryptids seen worldwide seem to bear resemblance to descriptions of animals long extinct. For Example, a large and unknown canine roaming about the State of Maine a few years ago, answers to the description of a dire wolf.
