News media continues to loose their minds.

(8/4/2018) A recent video posted to YouTube showing a moose eating on the side of the road in the wilderness of Quebec, Canada has gone viral because several media outlets are reporting that the video shows a “six foot eerie faceless creature” stalking the unsuspecting moose. But take a closer look…

Stabilized

Below is a stabilized version of the video obtained from the website gfycat that clearly shows the “creature” is a reflection or smudge on the windshield of the car that the family is looking through. We’ve lovingly naming it the #WindshieldWendigo.

TriDiver also stabilized the video in question, in which he describes the two additional dot-like windshield anomalies as smudges. Smudges of what? Well, it’s not clear (excuse the pun). However, he does determine that the subject in the video is a reflection off of something in the car.

Individuals from the National Cryptid Society Group and Facebook page quickly saw this image as a photographic anomaly.

Notifying the Media

Upon seeing the footage stabilized, no amount of red circles or arrows could alter the fact that what was captured on the video was NOT “the stuff of nightmares” (the Sun), a “Gollum-like monster” (The Daily Mail), a “creepy… 6ft creature” (The Mirror), or a “weird monster” (Fox News).

So we decided to reach out to several media sources in an attempt to have them reconsider their headlines. And the Pulitzer Prize goes to…
