 Beast of Dean - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Beast of Dean, also given the colloquial name 'Moose-Pig', is reportedly a large animal (possibly many) peculiar to a small area, Gloucestershire, in the south-west of the United Kingdom.
The royal Forest of Dean became a a hot-spot for sightings beginning in 1802, with reports from locals of an exceptionally large wild boar, with occasional reports of felled trees, crushed hedges and fences, and a supposed 'un-earthly roar.' Eventually local hunters, from the village of Parkend, Gloucestershire managed to capture and kill the creature.
Then a sound of rustling leaves was heard and the two saw a large sized shape come towards them in the darkness, at this time the men could not apprehend the size of the animal.
