Officials in the city of Amarillo, Texas on Wednesday asked for help regarding a peculiar problem: identifying a "strange" human-like animal that was seen outside a local zoo last month. 

The city shared a photo of the creature on social media, and said it was taken in the early morning hours of May 21 outside the Amarillo Zoo. 

"Is it a person with a strange hat who likes to walk at night? A chupacabra? Do you have any ideas of what this UAO- Unidentified Amarillo Object could be?" the city wrote.

Hmm, seems mysterious animals are being spotted outside of other zoos now??

SAN ANTONIO – Shortly after the “Unidentified Amarillo Object” was spotted in the Texas panhandle, the San Antonio Zoo says it also needs the public’s help in identifying a “mysterious figure” caught wandering Brackenridge Park.

The zoo took to social media Sunday, sharing a photo of this “strange creature” that was captured overnight on security camera footage.

Based on the photo, the creature appears to have four short and stout legs, a large rotund body and a large nose. To the casual eye, it almost appears to resemble one of the zoo’s famous hippos. Could it be Timothy?

I read this may be some kind of hoax as the fence and grass in both supposed (yet confirmed to be legit images from their respective cams by the parks) are almost identical.  ...? 

 

I guess the San Antonio zoo got jealous and decided to post a 'funny' this happened here too but IDK, I don't think it's funny. News is supposed to be based on facts. With everything going on in the world today it just seems like poor taste for San Antonio..
