I wouldn't be without at least a sidearm when out walking your property.

Let us know if the wooly beast returns...Backyard Mechanic and myself are willing to set up some tree stands on you property and stalk the beast...

A bear with mange will look like it has long legs.

Maybe it was a alligator.

I have heard stories that they get up into south Georgia in the fall, then head back south when the weather turns cold up there.

Here are some possiblities:
1) Dr. Moreau has relocated to the neighborhood
2) A secret sequel to STAR WARS starring Chewbacca
3) You are sniffing or snorting some fun drugs and we want to help
4) One of your genetically altered snakes became a very large mammal
5) Backyard Mechanic and Joe B. are wearing fake feet on your property
6) You are working Corvette Florida way to hard causing hallucinations. I would suggest joining Corvette Anonymous so you can get on the couch to discuss your problem.
I hope this helps . Seriously though, it sounds like a black bear with mange as SteveK described.
