Residents of the village of Derevnaya in the Slonim region live in fear. An unknown animal that kills domestic animals has got into their habit, according to the news program “24 Hours” on STV. People are afraid that he might attack a person.
Only a booth and a chain remind of the family's favorite - a dog named Fluff. He guarded this house for 10 years. And in the morning Valery Gulnik saw with horror that the head and front legs of the unfortunate mongrel were left. On the ground - blood and traces of struggle. Chickens and pigs are not touched.
Valery Gulnik, resident of the village Derevnaya:
I went to look at the tracks - there it was torn by claws. It can be seen that the dog cannot do this, the other dog breaks.
Alla Mikhnovets wonders what kind of beast roamed the village at night. Her Tuzik was more fortunate - gnawed, he was able to survive after the fight. Now the owner is taking care of the dog with medication and injections.
Alla Mikhnovets, resident of the village Derevnaya:
The neck is badly wounded, the bites are large, deep, probably. And the head is injured. Skin removed. Not that she was bitten, just skinned from the head of the dog.
Promotional video:
Locals believe that the wild animal entered the village at about 4 am - at this time all the dogs in the area barked loudly, as if they were torn from the chain. Nobody saw the predator, but we are sure that the mysterious creature is strong and bloodthirsty.
Anna Osipova, resident of the village Derevnaya:
It is very scary for myself and for the children, because the danger is near. The whole street is in fear.
Galina Buro, STV:
On the road, local residents saw the traces of a mysterious animal. They say they look like cats, only larger in size. It was suggested that the lynx had inherited here - it was seen in these parts.
But fear has big eyes - the locals put forward one version after another: a lynx, a wolf, a stray shepherd dog - nothing else than a mystical Chupacabra. A hunter with 40 years of experience has his own version.
Nikolay Boltrushko, chairman of the Derevny hunting collective: The
trace of the beast that ate the dog. I took the guide, made a comparison, and I'm sure it was a wolf. I believe that the wolf was hungry. Or maybe there are puppies somewhere in the brood that he is obliged to feed.
Old residents will not remember such an emergency in the village. The locals decided to join forces: now every night they watch out for a dangerous guest, and the hunters keep their guns at the ready.
