The Hidebehind is reportedly a large and powerful animal even though no one has ever seen one. The Hidebehind was blamed for many cases of disappearances among loggers when they did not return to camp and it is the reason that the beast is said to feed on humans. No matter how fast the observer is, the Hidebehind always manages to conceal itself behind something if it is being looked at. It is said that alcohol is a sufficient repellent to Hidebehind attacks, and it avoids the substance as much as it possibly can.

The Peluda, also called La Velue, terrorized the North-Western area of France in medieval times. Many called it a dragon but it was most often reported as an ox-sized porcupine. It had green hair-like spines coming off its back and when it needed to, those spines would harden and it could shoot them off at its enemy. Reportedly, the spines were also poisonous. The beast also was said to have a green, scaly head, body and legs. 

The beast was said to be able to do a number of dangerous abilities including being able to wither crops, creating floods just by stepping into rivers and spitting out a stream of water or even acid.

Lore says that the Peluda was defeated when a man, angered that the beast killed his fiancée, cut off the beast’s tail. Its tail was its weak point and it died immediately afterwards.
