The city of Amarillo tweeted the image this week asking, “Is it a person with a strange hat who likes to walk at night? A chupacabra? Do you have any ideas of what this UAO- Unidentified Amarillo Object could be?”
As of about midday Thursday, the tweet had upward of 260 retweets and 1,040 likes. Of course, with the Internet being what it is, they got all sorts of possible answers. People suggested everything from Elvis to bobcats. And at least one person called it out as fake, because it wouldn’t be the Internet if someone didn’t.
The Amarillo Zoo captured a strange image outside the zoo in the dark and early morning hours of May 21 (around 1:25 a.m.). Is it a person with a strange hat who likes to walk at night? A chupacabra? Do you have any ideas of what this UAO- Unidentified Amarillo Object could be? pic.twitter.com/86Ly9ogtBT
