Not really a cryptid but the other night when I went to feed my three farm cats I got a surprise.I went out with a torch and heard the cats growling at something next to the shed,they had circled what I thought was a feral cat.When the animal looked at me it had a longish snout and was wild rabbit coloured with a bushy tail.It took off with a strange running gait.I'm pretty savvy with most animals and this was no native.After searching for hours on the net I found the animal which turned out to be a mongoose,in the middle of the ozzy bush?I read later they had been released as early as 1855 to control snakes and rabbits but failed and died out,WRONG,they are still here wreaking havoc on the native wildlife.Never heard of them here before but animals never cease to amaze me.
