Entry #012: Tatzelwurm

© Jesstin Jacobs

• Native to the Alpine region of Europe

• Appears to be a mustelid (relative of weasels and ferrets)

• Measures about 30 inches long, head to tail

• Given the amount of varying coats in ferrets, it is unknown if this fur color is common

• Only has one set of legs

• While the lack of hind legs could be some sort of mutation or birth defect, Tatzelwurms are usually described as having only two legs, so this is probably present in the entire species
