Wildlife officials in Oklahoma are on the hunt for a mysterious creature that they believe to be an out-of-place coatimundi that somehow found its way into the state. The weird case reportedly began back in May when authorities in the city of Durant began hearing from residents who had spotted a strange animal that they could not quite identify. "I thought a possum head was on a raccoon body," marveled witness Janet Golden, who went on to note that the critter sported a "big, long white face with little bitty black eyes." Based on her description and the accounts of at least four other individuals who encountered the creature, the city's department of Animal Control concluded that there is a coatimundi roaming the community.
