Bigfoot and Dogman have some competition.
There are other critters out there who seem to be gaining in notoriety:
The Skinwalkers.

Whereas Dogman is most likely fiction or even a wild boar, and Bigfoot is usually some redneck dressed up in his granny’s fur coat, The Skinwalker is something ten times creepier. What is a Skinwalker?

They come from Navajo mythology and can shape-shift into animals. The reason they change shape is so that they can intentionally injure, maim, or kill. They can mimic other animals and even humans.

A person becomes a Skinwalker after committing a dastardly crime and can become a coyote, wolf, bear, fox, or any animal.

The Native American lore may state that Skinwalkers take on animal forms.....but the photos seen in the gallery below are more humanoid that animal, kind of alien-like.

Now when I say ‘photos’, I use the term loosely. In my mind, many of them look to be computer or AI generated, and others faked. I mean, come on...one image shows a Skinwalker wearing pants? Please.

With Skinwalkers, I am definitely a skeptic; yet there are others who totally believe there is something weird out in the countryside and fields – not Bigfoot, Dogman, or otherwise.

One person who claimed to have seen a Skinwalker says "My uncle and cousin saw a large deer on the side of the road. When they got closer it hopped over the fence like a bipedal man."

How do you tell if you have come across a Skinwalker?
If you shine a light on one when they're in some kind of animal form, their eyes glow bright red. In If they are in human form (as in the images below), their eyes look like animal eyes.

Skinwalkers have been known to creep into backyards and stand alongside a dark lonely country dirt road looking for travelers. When they are in human form, they appear without clothing, have long skinny alien-like arms, dark eyes, very pale white, and crawl in jerky movements on all fours or on two legs.

Yeah, this one is hard to swallow, but there seems to be an influx of Skinwalker sightings lately. Or maybe it’s just one guy creating these images and touting them as “numerous sightings”.

Do I believe this stuff?
No.
But look at the gallery and see what others have claimed to see.....or make up.
