It is believed that a large number of creatures about which we know almost nothing can live in the pristine forests of our planet. Some of these animals can be large and pose a real threat to humans.
In Russia, ecological systems with trees make up almost seventy percent of the country's territory, and there are thousands of square kilometers of forest, which in the entire history of our civilization has never been set foot by man. We can safely assume that our vast homeland hides many cryptids and the most real monsters that live and breed in freedom.
Documentary evidence of this appears from time to time, and one such evidence has recently appeared on the Internet. At the end of last month, the well-known video hosting YouTube got an amazing recording made by two Russian schoolchildren and depicting a large shaggy creature moving at high speed between trees in the forest.
It is surprising that this video bypassed domestic sites, but quickly spread to foreign ones. The video caught the attention of foreign Internet users, who were simply amazed by the appearance of a mysterious monster in the frame. The original post has already garnered over two hundred thousand views and nearly three thousand comments. YouTube regulars have put forward numerous theories as to who the creature captured on the video might be.
Presumably, schoolchildren filmed a monster in the Republic of Karelia
Two Russian boys, animatedly discussing what is happening, are watching a tall creature with thick black fur, which, jumping over the deadwood, rapidly runs through the forest on its hind legs. Judging by the comments of eyewitnesses, they are simultaneously frightened and interested in the appearance of the monster, while most of all in this situation they want to quickly upload the resulting video to YouTube. “He's hitting us again,” says the young operator at the beginning of the video, from which we can conclude that the cryptid managed to approach the students at least twice.
Some users of the World Wide Web believe that this is a werewolf that mistakenly turned into an animal in the daytime. Others are convinced that this is a great ape, which for some unknown reason ended up in the north of Russia. Still others assume that we are talking about a rare animal unknown to official science, since, according to the statistics of the same scientists, science has information about only twenty percent of everything that lives on Earth.

Many of these commentators, among other things, noted the bravery of the schoolchildren, which, for sure, could turn into misfortune for Russian children. But this is just for the current younger generation of risky selfie lovers in order to post it later on the Web, it is quite normal.
Skeptics argue that this is either an adult in a suit, or ordinary digital video editing. Doubters (obviously fans of outdoor recreation) can also be understood - who wants to believe that such terrible monsters can live next to a person?
