Hundreds
of households in Binh Dong Commune of Binh Son District in Quang Ngai are
living in panic after mysterious footprints were seen on the sand and loud
roaring sounds heard in the area.

According to Cao Tan Son, police chief of the Binh Dong
Commune, these mysterious incidents have been occurring since May 7 at the foot
of Dinh Mountain in Son Tra Commune.

However, no one has seen the strange creature that could
have caused such large footprints measuring almost 12-15cm. Over 20 dogs have
also been killed in the area and now around 280 households of the commune are
living in panic.

Nguyen Thi Bich Ngoc, a 70-year-old woman was the first to
find her dead pet dog on the night of May 7. She said that her dog was found
without its head and some body organs.

On the same night, four dogs were also found dead in the
same manner, approximately 15-20 kilograms from Ngoc’s neighborhood.

Many households living near the Dinh Mountain
said they had heard very loud roaring sounds.

In related news, in the border districts of Si Ma Cai and
Muong Khuong in the northwestern province
of Lao Cai, people have
repeatedly seen strange species of dog like animals.

The strange creatures have bitten about 15 people in Ban Me,
Thao Chu Phin, Quang Than San and Si Ma Cai communes in the two districts.

According to local residents, the strange doglike creatures
have slender, long bodies, slanting red eyes and their fur coat is marked with
white spots, black and white spots or yellow stripes.

They are seen wandering in the villages trying to prey on
housedogs or attacking other domestic bred animals like chickens, pigs, goats
and horses. They attack any person who tries to drive them away.
