billythefish Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) Did anyone see the Thai News today on Channel 3? about 6.30 am they carried this story about some UNKNOWN CREATURE discovered in Thailand - it actually looked like a Chihuahua - or some sort of Mexican Hairless dog - it was placed (DEAD) in an orange Bhuddha Bucket, and the locals were busy - as usual worshipping it! It was being blessed at the time by monks - anyone see this or have info? It looked like a expletive deleted Eeewok or a Gremlin.

gotglue Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Looking at the hoofed feet, I'd say it seems to be a grossly deformed calf, miss carried very late during the pregnancy . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katana Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 There was a bit in the Thairath about it with a pic. It took place in Nong Bua Lamphu province in Isaan. When reporters first went to investigate there was a crowd of about 100 villagers wai-ing and making offerings to it of flowers, candles and joss sticks in the hope some luck may be returned to them in the lottery. Apparently it was found by Mrs Chaweewan Atsuwan during a heavy storm when she heard something fall on her roof. On going outside she discovered the animal still alive, but it died shortly afterwards and she called in a monk to bless it. It's described as looking like a bat but with no hair or wings, about the size of a cat, large ears, sharp fangs, four legs and claws. One animal expert thinks it might be a small dog though. She plans to pickle it in a bottle to keep it for her grandchildren to see. www.thairath.co.th/content/region/88023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonrakers Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) I still remember the day, many moons ago that the TV was on. My GF at the time (now my ex) was watching the news about some fantastic new pig/dog creature with a fiery temperament and verocious appetite. The press were out, the monks where out and maybe even a couple local officials to see this magical new creature. I solved the conundrum for the entire nation simply by saying "It's just a <deleted> badger", and a (European) badger it was. Granted it should not have been found in Thailand but still a fairly common beast nonetheless. You'd have thought that the press might have learned to do a little research by now but alas, this Is Thailand.

tw25rw Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Looks like a chihuahua or an ugly cat to me. It also looks like they are preparing to make soup from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWheelMan Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) Although I’m no expert or claim to be, it doesn’t take a genius to guess that this is obviously a dog or a cat, more likely a cat judging by it`s front paws, suffering from a severe form of mange or similar disease. I’ve seen several soi cats and dogs in my area that have exactly the same appearance. Looking at the pain portrayed on this poor unfortunate animals face, it appears to have died in agony from some sort of poisoning. Anyway the lady in question will have a great story to keep her grandchildren entertained over the next coming years.

Scully Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Its a dog, simple as that. In Nong bua district there are all sorts of strange looking dogs walking around. One with ears too big for their head or bodies 10 inchs too long. Its because they are left to run around and bang any mutt in sight. I have yet to see a great dane crossed with a chihuahua but it has probably happened in issan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yabaaaa Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Simple country folk surrounding it by the looks of things. Its some aborted animal I expect and aborted for good reason although have you ever seen a human whose been dead in the water for a few days??? all bloated and unrecognisable. Nothing alien about it.

simon43 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I see they have a bottle of talcum powder in that photo (blue bottle). Presumably that's to rub on the poor creature's tummy so that the lottery lucky numbers stand out. Off-topic, but a great crac. When I stayed with my less-than-sane ex in Phuket, there were many very large toads that would inhabit the garden at night. She and her family members would collect these poor creatures and rub talc on their tummies, so that the dark/light mottling on their tummies would be better defined, so that they could identify lucky lottery numbers from these markings. As I walked around the hotel gardens at night, if I found a toad, I used to write various numbers on the tummies of these toads, using an indelible marker pen, but writing very faintly. I almost wet myself every time that I heard her and her family members whooping with joy when they espied these numbers. And no - they never won on the toad lottery...

dumball Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 The initial photos on this thread were rather misleading , they were of a hairless cat , looking at this latest posted photo , the head appears almost human , as is the umbilical cord , the cloven hooves add the mysterious part . A little experimenting in the barn during a lonely evening ? Flashing lights and rolls of thunder , the howling of wolves from distant hills and the corresponding barking of the local dog population , yes for sure , a mystery of an inhuman subject , imposed upon the skeptical local populace in the depth of the night ?????????????????????????
