Texas residents are baffled as a bizarre image was caught on the CCTV footage recently. According to NBC 5, the photo was captured around 1:30 am on May 21 at the Amarillo Zoo. The image shows the silhouette of a strange-looking figure walking alongside a chain-link fence. The details are hard to distinguish. The figure appears to look as though it had a dog-like face and the ability to move on its hind legs.
The Daily Star reported that a zoo groundskeeper was the first to spot the “wolfman-like” creature on motion-activated security cameras. There is no video of the odd figure. Only a photo was released by city officials.
Wolfman-Like Creature Confuses Authorities
“Is it a person with a strange hat who likes to walk at night? A chupacabra?” a tweet by the official City of Amarillo account read. “Do you have any ideas of what this UAO- Unidentified Amarillo Object could be?”
“It is definitely a strange and interesting image,” Michael Kashuba, the city’s director of parks and recreation, told NBC 5. “Maybe Amarillo can help solve the mystery of our UAO. It is [also] important to note that this entity was outside of the Amarillo Zoo. There were no signs of attempted entry into the zoo. No animals or individuals were harmed. There we no signs of criminal activity or vandalism.”
Twitter Users Share Their Conspiracy Theories
The internet went crazy once the picture was released. Twitter users also weighed in on the mystery. They offered a wide range of theories. Some jokingly determined the figure was a werewolf or an owl riding on the back of a drunk guy.
While others were convinced it was a coyote that was trying to climb the fence.
The possibility that it’s a zoo employee was also discussed.
