Hidebehinds are large dog-like creatures found in the stories of lumberjacks. Hidebehinds are described as large dog-like creatures with black, shaggy fur, long, sharp claws, and a tail. The Hidebehind gets its name due to the fact that it hides behind people and when they turn around the Hidebehind hides behind an object or runs behind the person so it isn’t seen then once it gets close enough the Hidebehind kills its victim and then eats them. Experts believe that the Hidebehinds could be black bears.

Said to reside in Normandy, particularly the commune of Bayeux, is the legend of the Rongeur d’Os. This large black dog’s name can be translated to “Bone Gnawer” or “Gnawer of Bones”. The Rongeur d’Os is said to drag a long chain behind it and always have a bone in its mouth. Like many black dog legends, the Rongeur d’Os is said to be an omen of death and strikes fear into travelers that it comes across.
Gef the Talking Mongoose said a number of notable things in his time living at the home of the Irvings on the Isle of Man. He could speak a number of different languages according to those he spoke to, including but not limited to Welsh, Spanish, and Russian. However, even though he could speak more than English, he once claimed that the Irvings were the ones that had taught him to speak: “For years, I understood all that people said, but I could not speak until you taught me”.
