Sample cases include: January 1859/Virginia/black dog-like creature chases man, July 1893/Russia/animal with long hair seen, July 1927/Illinois/cat-like object seen, May 1953/Nebraska/shrieks heard, cats seen, dogs and sheep eaten, December 2009/Elsewhere/assault and battery, wolf-like snout, April 2025/Argatha/lupine-like creatures are seen, denizens remember that lupine-like creatures exist

Methods have their limits of applicability and their are some phenomena that a given technique or approach cannot validly evaluate.  If a humanoid believes that lupine-like creatures are hostile, the humanoid might “see” reports clustering around military bases.  Pattern recognition is a strange bird, all told.
