Werewolf Hominus
Lupinus
There are two distinct types of were-creatures and countless
versions of each (related to geography and the types of local
natural predators.) One type appears to be a cross between animal
and human (an evolutionary hybrid, perhaps.) The other type appears
to be a result of a human or animal infected by a powerful
preternatural retro-virus. While both types of Werewolf are
extremely dangerous, the latter kind has the added danger of
possible infection. If encountered in the wild, great care should
be taken to not be bitten by a werewolf. Scientists from around the
world are working on a cure for the "were" virus. Doc Drake Branta
is rumored to be close to a breakthrough in this area. Capturing
this Werewolf (Cheney), was a necessary first step for this
research. To decrease the chance of accidental attack and/or
infection, the containment unit is designed to keep the Werewolf in
a state of suspended animation.
The Temporal-Dimensional Cryptid Containment Units, patterned after
technology first created and used by the Ghostbusters (in nearby
New York City), are capable of holding creatures of any shape and
size. While the T-D Cryptid Containment Units appear to be small
rectangular metal boxes (remarkably similar to .30 cal ammo cans)
on the outside, they are actually much larger on the inside. This
allows each cryptid to have enough space to live in a simulated
natural environment while keeping them safely sequestered. People
outside the T-D C.C.U. may observe the cryptid within by simply
(carefully) opening the unit and peering inside. (Do not enter or
otherwise disturb the temporal-dimensional field of the unit, lest
the creature escape back into the wild.)
We hope you enjoy your time at the Cryptozoological Capture and
Containment Center. Our founder and director, Doc Drake Branta, is
convinced these amazing creatures are simply misunderstood,
unjustly vilified by the uneducated and unaware. Doc Drake Branta
can most often be found at one of the T-D Containment Units, often
venturing into the containment field to be closer to these
creatures he has a special bond with.
Between Memorial Day and Labor Day, access to Gilbert Lake State
Park requires a State Park pass or a daily access fee. Dogs are
allowed with a leash. Park is open from dawn to dusk. There is bow
hunting in the park and in the area of this cache during the last
two weeks of November and the first two weeks of December. The
cache will be archived during this period per park staff request.
