Wooligator

Discovery LocationScottish Highlands, Loch Ness Shores
Lead ResearcherProfessor Angus MacLeod

Field Report Summary

Physical Description

Resembles an alligator in overall body shape, but instead of scales, it possesses a dense, shaggy coat of cream-colored wool. The wool is particularly thick around the neck and tail, providing insulation. Snout and feet retain scaled appearance and leathery texture but are smaller than those of an actual alligator. It has yellow eyes and prominent teeth.

Habitat

Cold, temperate swamps and marshes.

Dietary Behavior

A carnivorous ambush predator, preying on sheep and other livestock grazing near waterways.

Evolutionary Origin

A freak chromosomal anomaly resulted in the fusion of alligator and sheep DNA due to radioactive runoff from a Cold War era power plant.

Behavioral Notes

Produces a distinct bleating sound when distressed, resembling a sheep in distress but far more sinister.
