Description
[Report] While returning from the sea with three friends, we were riding bicycles when we heard heavy panting (a deep breathing sound like “huff huff”) coming from a large patch of tall grass on the right side of our direction of travel. We couldn’t see the animal because it was hidden in the grass, but it sounded like something was lurking very close by.
