The Beast of Gevaudan, the devourer of men

For three years the Gevaudan Beast sowed terror in the south of France.Between 1764 and 1767 210 attacks were recorded of which more than a hundred had a death result.Beast was described as an animal mix of wolf and giant dog in the size of a cow, with large fangs and a long, curly tail like a lion.One of his abilities was to jump distances greater than 10 meters The victims used to appear with the throats shattered and partially devoured .The king of France, fearing that the locals seized, sent troops to end the Beast of Gevaudan, but without success.

The first attack described was on June 30, 1764 and died a 14 year old girl named Jeanne Boulet who lived in the town of Hubacs.from this it is possible that there had been other encounters and deaths with the beast, but they were not collected.During that summer several more people were killed and the king env io a regiment of dragons to end the monster that began to be known as the Gevaudan Beast .The attacks followed during the autumn and winter causing several more victims and on one occasion some hunters managed to reach him with his shots but the beast got up and ran away.

Rewards were offered, prayers were prayed and local clergy spoke of the Beast being a punishment to the men of the region for their sins.Many of the victims of the attacks were children who played as shepherds in the mountains, so from then on they left in a group to be more protected, which was not an impediment for the Beast to bite and try to take some of them, being saved by their companions.Dragons failed to hunt the Gevauda Beast n and professional hunters were hired to kill her, but without any success.The deaths and the valuable exploits in the rescue of victims of the animal were happening for 3 years.

The possibility of that it was a werewolf or a serial killer that caused the attacks.However, when Jean Chastel, a neighbor in the area, on June 19, 1767, ended up with a large half-wolf animal half a dog, nobody else was attacked by the so-called Gevaudan Beast .Everything suggests that this was the culprit, right?
