Driving on Rte 39 on Warm Springs Mountain, stopped when deer ran across road, then noticed dark shape on shoulder and turned (head or car?) to look at it. Glowing red eyes, clumped and matted fur, some cinnamon colour on back. Could see muscle definition on front. Grey, hairless face, appeared to be grinning. Flat nose, slightly protruding jaw, looked very old. Stayed still a long time, then jumped guard rail and went down embabkment into thick brush, watching observer all the time.
