Lloyd V. wrote about an experience he had involving a Dogman that he encountered in the Tapley Woods State Natural Area in Jo Daviess County, Illinois.
"I'll share my encounter on US 20 at Tapley Woods of a Dogman over roadkill which I documented with another reporting site. Late evening on a weekend trip to see my parents in Galena, Illinois. Five minutes from Tapley Woods State Natural Area (Illinois) driving my cargo van 45 to 50 miles per hour past the rest stop/hunting registration area exit.
On the north of the road going west, I noticed a dark figure stooping over roadkill. It was jet black. When our eyes met, its white burning evil glare shook my soul in absolute fright and knowledge this was not just an animal but demonic. I gunned my old van to the limit as I feared it would chase me because I could feel the stare from the passenger door rear mirror. I pick up two invasive thoughts: “leave” and “forget.”
In five minutes, I was at my parent's home and went to the guest room, closing the shades of a floor-to-ceiling window right next to my bed. I did not think of that experience until I saw an artist's depiction of a canine variant with three all-black and burning-white eyes.
Later I found another account from an elderly couple - a black white-eyed wolfman had run across the road in front of them driving at night on Blackjack Road in the same Jo Daviess County, not more than 20 miles away, 125 miles from the famous Beast of Bray Road incidents.
My brother, who works for the FBI, has also lived in the area with his wife and has said the property security found a dead deer 20 feet in a tree. I think only African leopards stash their prey in trees but nothing does that in North America? I suppose a car could hit something that hard but the winding roads would never let you get up that speed and no reports of a crash.
After that, in the winter, 500 feet before a convenience store on the road, I saw a giant all-black dog or a wolf. It crossed very casually even though my muffler is a bit loud. I caught up with security just ahead of the wolf and asked if he saw that monster canine in its rearview mirror. “No,” he said. I Googled if wolves were seen in Illinois at that time. Only once in 50 years and if it was a dog there are strict leash laws and fines who would let that out."
