The Beast of Gévaudan was an unknown man-eating animal that terrorized a rural region of southern France for several years in the mid-1700s. At first it was thought to be a wolf, but its size, behavior and the manner in which it killed its victims, as well as the fact that it preferred humans over livestock, ruled it out as an ordinary wolf. Speculation has held that the beast was an unusually large wolf, a wolf-dog hybrid, or some kind of large African animal such as a hyena or lion that could have escaped from some noble’s private menagerie. Some superstitious types at the time and since even thought it was a werewolf. At any rate, the beast was eventually killed after a reign of terror over the Gévaudan region lasting several years and after hundreds of people had been killed and injured by it. Even after its death, its species was never identified. Its legend continues to remain popular in France up to this day.
I had originally thought this would make a great subject for an October round, Halloween season and all, but didn't do it as we hadn't established that we can use animals yet.
