the Beast of Gévaudan . Reddish brown with dark ridged stripe down the back. Resembles wolf/hyena but big as a donkey. Long gaping jaw, six claws, pointy upright ears and supple furry tail — mobile like a cat’s and can knock you over. Cry: more like horse neighing than wolf howling. . Supernatural explanations of the attacks of 1764 to 1767 continue to circulate. Some believe they were the work of werewolves or meneurs de loups (magical “wolf whisperers”, or “leaders of wolves”, who can command wolves to do their bidding). . the Beast of Gévaudan . . #beastofgevaudan #performanceart #lillevega #vegaartscph
