Outrageous Werewolves Facts 6

One of the most popular real stories based on the werewolf idea was the one of the Beast of Gevaudan. Between 1764 and 1767, the Gevaudan province in south central France was terrorized by an unspecified wolf like creature. Allegedly, the beast attacked over 200 humans, killing and eating about 100 of them. At that time, people thought it to be a werewolf but modern theories suggest it was a huge domestic dog or a dog wolf hybrid.
