strange white beast

Hello there,
I have been reading this site for a couple months now since I heard about it on C2C. Well when I was about 12 years old i saw something that to this day I have not told anyone about and have never forgotten what it looked like.
I live in south carolina and was on the bus going to school, about 7 am. Next to my neighborhood was a railroad track that was surrounded by kudzu, as most of the upstate of south carolina is lol
Anyway, as the bus turned, and walking on the railroad track, i saw something that to the best way i can explain it, is a HUGE white anteater. It was walking away from me so i only saw the side of it before the bus turned and i was looking at its rear. It had long hair like an anteater and it was waddling along not caring. This was no dog and no animal i have ever seen, but anteaters look like them. Solid White. I do not know of Anteaters in South Carolina so i wonder has anyone ever seen anything like this?
Its something i will never forget!
thanks

I used to live In SC, - Irmo. I know I wished I had an ant eater as all the fire ants we had problems with. As you know there is no known preditor for fire ants, and if you live in SC you know how much of a pest they are. I bet someone took my idea and got an ant eater to take care of the problem. Just my guess.

Pity embedding not working for me today, link below.

The only thing I can imagine is an albino escaped anteater from a private collection. I'd call Animal Control if I were you.

The white anteaters in that video are the smaller breed, im notr sure where the larger breed live but their fur is grey, with black stripes, I think.

Can you give us a comparason of size?

Maybe an albino bear?

The thing I saw was solid white and was much bigger than that. I think i would compare it to a bear but albino, long shaggy hair, in south carolina? I know we have black bears so thats not a total rule out, but a long hair, white at that. If it was a bear it was a freaky bear that got all the genes that made it not survive lol. I am almost 29 now so this was a while ago. No calling animal control. The weird thing is I have seen bears and i know what they look like. This thing had an anteater type face if i remember, but I dunno.

Hey ! I saw one of those! Was I laughing!
I was driving my stepvan/housecar East on
I-80 in Nevada crossing a salt flat about
fifty miles wide. There was almost no traffic
at about 11:00AM so I slowed down To look
at the salt. It was totally flat and devoid of rock,
soil, or plant growth 100% white powder. So
as I'm slowing down here's this white anteater
with about four inch white hair, and about the
size of a great dane, but unique body
mechanics. It had the extended snout and
tongue that we only find on anteaters. It was
about fifty feet from me, and it was CAVORTING
merrily about and acknowledged me briefly and
bounced off, like a small child at play. And there
was nothing for it to eat or drink for fifty miles in
any direction.

I was living very stably, healthy, well fed and
well rested calmly touring in my motorhome, reading
and practicing music. I was not under the influence
of any unusual chemicals, people, or unfamiliar
spiritual practices. The incident was not in the least
disturbing. I've seen "miracles" before enough so
I almost expect them.

My favorite psychic (C.C.)said it was a shape shifter,
after I asked her about it. The beastie did give off the
vibe that it was "joking".

It didn't move like the anteaters in the UTube thing. It had
an almost horselike kind of mobility. It made movements
like a bucking bronco, jumping and coming down on both
front feet together. It had a six inch snout and four inch
pure white hair that looked like it'd just been washed. I saw
also a very long round tongue stick out about four inches.
After it made eye contact, it cantered back off across the salt.
