Maine Mutant Comes To Canada

From CBC:

For 15 years, residents in Androscoggin County in Maine have reported seeing and hearing an animal with glowing eyes and a chilling cry that was blamed for killing pet dogs.

Now somebody has run over a large-dog sized animal that folks down in Androscoggin County think might be the mystery beast. Opinion as to what the thing is range from "Satan" to a wolf-dog hybrid to some kind of large dog of a breed not common in Maine. And, here's the point, they've sent the body to HealthGene Corp. in Toronto, a laboratory specializing in veterinary DNA testing, for a conclusive answer. My favorite CryptoZoology site has been all over this issue, and they have a few pictures the Mutant, which I am reproducing here:






Like, to me this looks like a big dead dog, but apparently the people of Maine are puzzled. Anyone have more definite ideas than that, please let me know.
