40-year-old driver Juan Berrios was on an errand on Santa Filomena Street on his way to the Las Vertientes terminal when about 70 meters from his car, he noticed a strange figure standing in the middle of the road. 

He rubbed his eyes, and then saw nothing and continued to move, about 5 meters away, a strange figure appeared again. Stunned by what he saw, Berrios almost lost control of his car as he rounded the figure, nearly flipping the car over.

In the jaws of the strange creature was something like the carcass of a bloody dog. The creature suddenly jumped up and disappeared into the bushes. 

Berrios described the creature as being about 1.50 m tall, with large kangaroo-like hind legs, small curved front arms that ended in protrusions like claws, and a pointed dorsal fin on its back, and a tail that resembled that of a rattlesnake. His features were also bizarre; he had a wolfish face, several sharp rows of teeth, and fierce red eyes. 

He jumped to a height of about 5 meters and disappeared from sight.

40-year old driver Juan Berrios was on his on an errand on Santa Filomena Street on his way to Las Vertientes terminal when at about 70 meters in front of his car he noticed a strange figure standing on the middle of the road. He rubbed his eyes and then saw nothing and kept on driving, at about 5 meters away the bizarre figure again appeared. Stunned at what he was seeing Berrios almost lost control of his vehicle as he swerved around the figure almost upending the vehicle. The strange creature had what appeared to be the carcass of a bloodied dog clutched in his jaws. The creature suddenly jumped and disappeared into the brush. Berrios described the creature as about 1.50m in height, with large hind legs like a kangaroo, small curved front arms that ended in claw like protrusions, a spiky dorsal fin on its back, and a tail resembling that of a rattler on a snake. The facial features were also bizarre; it had a wolf-like snout, several sharp rows of teeth, and fierce-looking red eyes. It jumped a height of about 5 meters and disappeared from sight.
