Strange animal

Comments

  • SE9 Chupacabra. 100%. 
  • Bavarian Pine Vole 
  • Loads of muntjac deer in this next of the woods as well, as well as other larger deer.
  • ...probably the most common animal you see driving around tbh

    No wonder they have spread so quickly!




  • Or perhaps it's a badger with very long legs?
    Go on then, from that angle I'll buy it. 
  • Looks like a tapir to.me..escaped from a wildlife park maybe?

    It’s a f*cking Muntjac…

    it looks like one and behaves like one, in a location where there are plenty.

    it’s not a wild escaped animal or a computer generated image (unless someone is very very very sad and bored).

    It can't be. It's on its own. 
  • Capybaras are cute.
    But that's a muntjac. Drive up to Norfolk maybe 5 times a year to visit a friend. It's a surprise if I don't see a couple of live ones and about 10 roadkill.

    That's right it's a muntjac, a muntjac that's been forced through a plastic extrusion machine so that its head is twice the usual length. Glad we settled that.
    The film is deliberately shot out of focus and at dusk specifically to get people talking. Mission accomplished

    Fair dos, it reeled me in alright. 
  • I love the way people can be so 100% categoric about a poor and grainy image shot from a long distance. "It 100% is" / "it 100% isn't".

    Bit like that time someone was adamant they'd diagnosed Lyle Taylor's injury based entirely on the way he was sitting on a bench in one single picture of him waiting for a train. We are blessed with such a range of experts.

    but it is a muntjac...
  • Bizarrely, I saw one today 🤣🤣🤣

    Haven't seen one for a few weeks - this one was foraging well away from the woods in broad daylight as well. Couldn't get a picture cos I was on the bike - though if I had been able to, I'd have made sure it was blurry and out of focus... 😏
  • I saw the original post on the SE9 Facebook a weeks ago. Someone in the comments said it was a fox with mange and they had seen it in that area a lot. It was in a bad way.

    Ever the gentleman Leroy, and I'm sure the lucky lady appreciated your full attention.

    Did anyone else in the comments say it was a Muntjac 😉
  • It's a Capymuntjac.

  • It could be a dog wearing a large muzzle. 🤔

    Incidentally…..all you folk saying it’s a muntjac is totally bizarre🙄
    Since when did they have a long tail???
    My take is it’s a dog of some type, wearing a large muzzle.
  • but it is a muntjac...
    With a long tail…..OMG!
  • 100% Muntjac. Got them round here in Lancashire now - seen them a few times out riding my bike at dusk. They're weird looking - not like you'd expect a deer to look at all - and their call is more like a dog's bark. 
    You should padlock your bike Leroy.🤭

    FFS this is hard work...

    From "The British deer Society"

    Muntjac are a russet brown colour for most of the year, turning to a dull grey in winter. Characteristically, muntjac have a 'hunched' appearance, as their rumps are higher than their shoulders. They have a wide, flat tail, which is raised erect to display a white underside when disturbed.

    On this thread so far, we have had:-

     - A dog of some type wearing a muzzle.
     - A fox with mange
     - A tapir escaped from a wildlife park (obviously one of many that dot South London that have lost a Tapir).
     - A capybara (A rodent native to South America).
     - An AI generated image (!!)
     - A Chupacabra (a mythical creature from the Americas).
     - A Tamandua - an Anteater native to South America
     - An Aardvark.

    The scary thing is that I genuinely believe those that suggested the above believe it could actually be one (I'll let a mangy fox into the mix as at least that's possible in the world of wild animals in South london).

    But, on reflection, it's a muntjac. looks like one, acts like one, in a location where there are many.

    The only bit i take issue with is 'there are many'. I'm local and out a lot and have never seen one or heard of anyone who has.
