In the forests of the German Harz hills, which extend over parts of the German federal states of Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia, there is said to be a man who is said to be dressed in a wolf costume or has a wolf skin on him. , German media reports.

The strange phenomenon is said to have been noticed several times by locals or hikers from afar. We should have seen how he darted among the bushes, like some wild man leapt into the hosta and let out a muffled sound through his sharp teeth, all like a wolf gathering brambles. Maybe he’s even a werewolf, some joke. The police and firemen went through the forest and recently, last Saturday, they indeed found the remains of a fire pit and a bivouac made of branches. Not for the first time. The man, allegedly a “wolf man”, had already run away and hid in the thicket.

Sober police officers allow for the possibility that there may be a loner in the woods who is adapted and resourceful enough to survive in the wilderness at different times of the year. But they are more concerned that burning in the wild would not cause a fire.
