Strange animal seen walking on the road like humans, it is neither a wolf nor a fox

We are well aware of wolves.

However, most of us may not have heard of the 'maned wolf'.

The video of one such creature has gone viral, which is neither a fox nor a wolf.

In a video shared on Twitter by internet user Reg Sadler, an animal is seen crossing the road peacefully.

The special thing is that this animal looks like a wolf at first sight and then after looking carefully it looks like a fox.

However, it is neither of the two.

Puzzled by the same, the user captioned the post as, "Does anyone know what this is?!"

The post has garnered two million views since being shared.

Many Twitter users were stunned to see such an animal.

Some people thought it was a hyena while others called the video fake.

One user said, 'Looks fake, dark fur appears on the neck and disappears.'

Someone guessed and said, "It looks like a jackal hybrid with another canine mammal... maybe a hyena or a coyote."

The video was re-shared by a Twitter page Fascinating, where they claimed the animal to be a 'man wolf'.

According to Britannica, the species is a rare large-eared member of the canid family found in the remote plains of central South America.

The maned wolf is characterized by an erect mane, long reddish-brown fur, very long black legs, and a fox-like head.

The maned wolf is a nocturnal, solitary species that preys on small animals, insects, and plant matter.

It often stays away from people.
