Ongoing Encounters with "Fang" on old family land

The witness and the witness's younger son were hiking at dusk in thick woods. They found very fresh footprints beside a thicket too dense to enter. As it got darker they reported smelling the creature.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
