- (Terra) - Scientists of the Universidad Austral de Chile
are dumbfounded by an enigmatic animal skull, since they are at a loss
to ascertain to what animal or species it belongs. The animal was apparently
last January in the Arique Sector of Antihue (Tenth Region) by a farmer
who had reported the strange deaths of a large number of birds, particularly
geese. Last May, the same farmer reported that he had killed a strange
creature.
-
- The hunter preserved the only the head as a trophy and
cast the rest of the body into a river. He later reported that since that
day, he hears the sound of distant howling in the evening. It is his belief
that [the source of the howling] is the lonely female that accompanied
the animal and continues prowling the region in search of her mate.
-
- The skull was ultimately delivered to Universidad Austral.
However, after four months of intense research, in which DNA samples were
connected, it now turns out that the skull has left scientists dumbfounded,
as they have been unable to determine the exact nature of the beast in
question.
-
- The discovery of this species has been qualified as "very
interesting" by the scientific community itself, because "we
are dealing with a medium-sized animal which would have gone unnoticed
by science for approximately one century."
