Dogman sighting in Arkansas (1972)
Account
In 1972 the witness camped with family in a van at a newly opened park at Beaver Lake in the Arkansas Ozarks. Late at night after a loud bang on the van and seeing a shadow, nearby campers fled, then the group watched a tall hairy biped with a dog-like snout descend a rocky ridge, heard a loud growl, and were pelted with gravel before fleeing the park before dawn.
