In the 1880s, a wild menace haunted the Arizona territory. It was known as the Red Monster, and its legend grew as it roamed the high country. It trampled a woman to death in 1883. It was rumored to stand 10 feet tall. A cowboy once tried to rope the Monster, but it turned and charged his mount, nearly killing them both. One man chased it, then claimed it disappeared right before his eyes. Another swore it devoured a grizzly bear.
