Cryptid sighting near Wickenburg, Arizona

around the time I was about 14 years old Wickenburg, Arizona 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and his brother heard horses making noise in the pasture below the ranch house and went to look. They saw all the horses bunched together and then a large black bulky animal on all fours. It ran down the wash toward the river, darting between brush, much faster than known dogs or coyotes.
