I wonder if anyone has thought of getting permission in the areas mentioned to set up some trail cams that hunters use to identify game? Seems like technology would help uncover a lot. Also tree stands set up along likely trails used by these creatures might be a great idea. I am keeping my eyes open now, more aware that there are creatures in our woods that so far have defied explanation.

Consider where the French people of Louisiana originated (Canada’s Arcadian region) and the concurrance of the word “loup garou” in any of its spellings, herald back to old European tales, as would Grendel, Loki, and Green-men and their local variations. The memory of an older people who never really became socially complex as did humans but who still lurk around the edges permeates a lot of ancient lore, and I suspect a bit more even.

Thanks for this post, Loren…

To be honest, I always associated the term “Loup-Garou” with a creature in Louisiana exclusively.

Glad to see it is “found” in other parts of the country.

Again, thanks for this.

True, the internal labeling was associated with the numbering of the photos, not the number of tracks. The tags were placed there by the photographer, who must remain unnamed due to the sensitivity of his employment, not me.

Hi Loren,

The pictures labeled track1 and track2 appear to be the same track. Perhaps you meant track picture 1, and track picture 2, but I thought I’d point that out just in case it was an oversight.

I had been told of the “loup-garou” (that term was actually used) living on Sabattus Mountain back in 2002. Then I followed the dog killer/ Maine mutant happenings quite closely as well. All this renewed activity in the area is exciting. It makes me want to head to Leeds and just see the area since it’s so rare for something cryptozoological to occur within driving distance for me.

Hi Loren,

Good evening. This is a very informative article about a new Maine Sasquatch sighting. The forest area in the photos & the video do show what looks like wonderful habitat for a Sasquatch or for other wildlife, as well. Please keep us posted on further activity & investigations in this forested area.
