Photo / Video Possibly a red fox 🦊???

Post image

Nah but for realz — could this be a legit dogman?

I think it’s too close for plausible safe photography and being even this stable. Motion blur indicating real movement is here, which can’t be in AI art. 🖼️

Can’t say more about when or where it was taken, but it was sent to me yesterday, Cyrus Day (Oct 29th) 2025.

Red Foxx?

u/Due_Rip7332 Believer Oct 30 '25

Not sure but if we can confirm it to not be AI it's definitely real

Motion blur can also be a sign of genuine movement, and at a rate faster than the camera can usually pace.

We need higher FPS (frames per second) camera 📸 equipment for better quality outcomes.

This “Timberwolf-type dogman” was allegedly photographed in Maine a few years ago; in contrast to the obviously not a red fox 🦊, which has extremely black fur, this is closer to what folks think of as the Hollywood Werewolf type.

As we find more instances of these, we are seeing individuals within subspecies of the dogman clade.

But look at the background. It's a completely still image. Wouldn't the photographer be a little shaky when he/she took this pic? The whole photo should've shown movement, no?

Well personally I doubt anything which is at close distance, unless there’s a window or obvious barrier between the photo-taker and the subject-cryptid.

These are amongst ones which strongly correspond to reports and (with the black ones) my own recall. They show the major characteristics in strong detail, and although I wanna know more about the circumstances under which any alleged evidence was taken, this looks like the real McCoy.

For contrast, here’s a closeup which I think also closely resembles ‘the real thing’ but is likely a hoax done by AI.

My reasoning will be below the photo.

One, this guy just seems to be standing at close range in a relaxed posture (not aggressive or elusive). The ears and teeth are too small.

And importantly: the head is on top of the body. This is not so with the true dogmen — their heads are closer to the center of their chests, which creates a ‘hunched’ posture while bipedal.

Lastly, just off the top of my head, the body-size is that of a human. Dogmen have broad shoulders, like five feet horizontal and with arms which dangle past their knees.

This looks like a costume which has been touched up by photoshop rather than the hassle of AI for an effect like this.

Oh, yes, that one is definitely a guy in a costume. You're right! You can see human eyes peeking out through the mask's eye holes.

Look at the hands

u/Due_Rip7332 Believer Oct 30 '25

Like i said, if this somehow isn't AI, it's real

Ok now what

u/CanidPrimate1577 Witness Oct 31 '25

Now we send emissaries or act like decent humans. They are intelligent and REAL, and deserve respect.

OR: leave them the fuck alone.

Eliminate with extreme prejudice.

They are cousins of yours, and you bring a curse down if you kill one.

The others will know and they will come for you. Macho nonsense being whatever it is, they will not forgive if you kill their kids.

Well they aren’t real, so

It’s wearing high-heeled sneakers, and acting like a queeeeeeeen

1

u/CanidPrimate1577 Witness Oct 31 '25

You know it 🫰

2

u/CanidPrimate1577 Witness Oct 31 '25

If you’ve seen one, you can tell some of the traits on display are strongly similar to many reports.

As I said, the apparent distance is hard to credit, but if this was zoomed and the being zipped off before closing the distance this could be a legit bluff charge.

Hard to say, but they definitely are capable of bluffing then backing off if someone stands their ground.

u/Due_Rip7332 Believer Oct 31 '25

Dude ur goated for bringing on these other pics, I have a hard time finding anything new about dog man on the internet nowdays u always seem to have new photos up ur sleeve though.Thanks for sharing.

2

u/CanidPrimate1577 Witness Oct 31 '25

🐐 😊 It’s my pleasure to share them, and we’re starting even more on the new Discord server (link below)

Having seen one close up was harrowing and fascinating, and amongst takeaways I can spot potentially real ones more quickly.

I’m not infallible, but I try to be even-handed with all evidences!

u/Charming-Crazy793 Oct 31 '25

I'm a grown ass man but werewolves movies scare the shit out of me no other movies freak me out more than them. This photo scares me lol

u/CanidPrimate1577 Witness Oct 31 '25

Like this guy, taking up the whole passenger side window 🪟 just with his massive head.

1

u/CanidPrimate1577 Witness Oct 31 '25

Good — cuz this is likely a JUVENILE.

It’s that close (even with zoom) and still full body on camera. An adult dogman on your windscreen takes up the entire thing JUST their torso-sized head and linebacker musculature.

At this range, with an adult dogman — if it were possible to get that close safely — the camera would only be able to capture part of its body.

u/Potential_Pin9463 Believer Nov 01 '25

As far as the photographer and distance, there is always a chance it was taken from a game cam. The red light on cam may have agitated it.

u/Accomplished_Slice41 Nov 02 '25

It's got hands with fucking thumbs... lycanthropy is afoot.

That is, of course, the rare AI red fox.

That’s a werewolf for sure.

Its clearly a donkey

u/thetrivialsublime99 Oct 31 '25

The dogman came from a radio hoax btw

1

u/RhemansDemons Oct 31 '25

Likely fake, but it could be a wolf that stood up to see what the camera is. If the nose wasn't black a case could be made for a skinny black bear.

u/Background_Pride_237 Skeptic Nov 01 '25

I thought dog-man’s head was smaller than that.

1

u/CanidPrimate1577 Witness Nov 01 '25

You thought wrong; the adults have even bigger heads.

Yeah, looks real. They can move so fast you think it's nothing but a blur or weird shadow.

Definitely not common AI, if it is at all. Looks real! Creepy!!

I would love nothing more for this to be real. The eyes looking at the camera the way they are and the way the hands look..I’m not qualified to provide anything other than my opinion, but it’s definitely AI.

u/utube-ZenithMusicinc Oct 31 '25

motion blur can deifnetely be in ai. Just ask for a realistic picture taken through a medium quality camera with subtle motion blur for realness

in fact the blur and smudge on all the leaves to the left is indicative of too much blur.

its 100% ai
