I almost hit something that looked like your pic on the right with my car on a remote highway in Colorado. It was very sturdily built, the size of a very large dog but more squat, and agile. I braked, it saw me, and effortlessly ran up a steep roadcut that was probably ten feet or more high like it wasn’t even there. For a few brief seconds I was terrified staring this thing down, not knowing how it would react.

Just remember you’re in a car. Cars win.
