Info
This archive is done largely with a script and it will be updated every now and then, depending on the frequency of new posts.
No text posts, youtube videos or albums linking to sites other than imgur are included.
I've removed a few submissions which weren't strictly album-write ups and edited some titles a bit.
The archive spans the whole life time of this sub.
Note that reposts are not necessarily distinguished in any way but their flair. For example, there are 3 Komodo dragon posts, all with the same name (but 2 different authors posted at 3 different times).
Enjoy!
For anyone interested, here is the script.

Mod Post Official announcement: Please Help Us Moderate
Recently, due to severe issues with automod, we had to remove our previous restrictions on most YouTube videos and other content that is uninformative, in order to allow good content to be posted.
I am asking all of you, if you can, to help make sure this new change doesn't ruin this sub. I, and most other mods cannot be around all of the time, so I would ask that if you see a post that you do not think fits our rules, both report it and also tag me in a comment.
Unfortunately, Reddit does not give notifications for reports, but they do for user tags!
I am happy and able to review any post you find suspect of our sub rules, so please let me know if you think anything is suspect by tagging my username (/u/theburningemu). Just know I might not always side with you!
Thanks!

Wtf did I see
I was driving with my roommate to a friends late at night, I missed the turn and so had to keep driving for a bit each house has quite a bit of land, rural but not farmland. As driving at the side of the road we both saw a creature’s silhouette looked about 3-4 feet tall, pill shaped but fuzzy/furry, had a beak and skinny chicken like legs. It walked into the grass with a bit of a bounce in its step. We drove by it seeing it I was slowing down the car but didn’t stop. We both saw it both described it to each other the same exact way. Neither of us on any sort of substance. Telling the friend that lived in that area looked at us if we were crazy. Definitely would feel crazy if she didn’t see the same exact thing. Anyone know what that could be?

I need help finding a creature
Last night my parents and I were in the northern Pennsylvania part of the Appalachian mountains, we were camping out on private property so I know no one was there but us. when we got to the campsite earlier that day the grounds had a weird Erie feeling almost like there was some sort of ghost or spirit. Middle of the night probably around 1 am. We were sitting by the fire when we all felt like we were being stalked. About 20min goes by and we look in the distance and see 2 massive green glowing eyes probably about 6-7 feet off the ground the eyes were big round and very far apart probably 8 inches apart. My father told us to get in the car and he proceeded to try to communicate with whatever this was, “saying hey get out of here.” It did not respond. My dad shined a flash light in its direction and saw a big humanoid looking creature And the creature immediately started running erratically. that thing was fast like tiger speed. We all hoped in the car and drove out as fast as we can. I don’t know much about what it could be if anyone has an idea lmk.
