Account
Late at night at the cabin the witness's cats and dogs reacted with extreme fear to something unseen outside. The witness stepped out and noticed a strong offensive stench. The next morning the witness and her husband found the sweat lodge disturbed and a garbage can rolled over silently, which the husband said was not a bear.
