A York County, Pennsylvania resident reported a 4-foot-long, Lemur-like creature observed shaking a Dogwood tree in their neighbor's yard.
I received the following account:
"I was just relaxing in my house and watching some TV. We have double sliding doors with windows facing our backyard, and I can see outside from where I was lounging on the couch.
That's when something began moving in the corner of my vision. When I glanced over, I noticed our 10-foot-high dogwood tree on the very end bordering our yard from the neighbors was shaking violently. I couldn't figure out what kind of animal, aside from a human, could shake an entire tree like that. I stood up and walked over to the window to peer out.
There are also several extremely large pine trees bordering along the end of the backyard and I couldn't see anything through the thick foliage, even though the sun was shining brightly in the sky. The dogwood continued to shake, and then to my astonishment an enormous gray creature jumped from one of the dogwood's flimsy branches and into a huge pine nearby.
I only glimpsed it for about three seconds at most, but I definitely got a good look at it, and it was like nothing I had ever seen before. The creature was rather large, perhaps around 4 feet in length. It was all gray except for its long skinny tail that had black and white stripes along it, like those lemurs from Madagascar. Its front end was somewhat slouched down, as if it had short front legs and large powerful back legs, like how a kangaroo would look.
It was the weirdest creature I had ever seen. Unfortunately, I didn't get a look at its head as it quickly vanished into the pine. A few minutes later, I was outside rooting through the leaves and long grass at the end of the yard looking for footprints and maybe to catch a sighting of the creature, but I didn't find anything. Yet I know what I saw.
I live in a suburb south of York, Pennsylvania (Arlington Park), and such creatures like that don't live in this area. If I absolutely had to call it a specific animal, I would say it was a lemur, but the tail wasn't bushy, but very slender and agile like a cat's. Wish I had taken a picture.
I haven't seen it since that day, but there have been weird scratching noises below my bedroom window at night ever since I saw the creature and I wonder if the two are related or if it's another incident that coincidentally just happened in the same time period. My neighbor has not seen the creature." S
NOTE: Since the location is close to me, I am interested in what the witness observed. For several years there were reports of cryptid canines and upright, hooved creatures seen in the same general area. South-Central Pennsylvania is well-known for a multitude of cryptid creature sightings and encounters. Lon
