Account

The witness and a companion were fishing at a lake in the morning when they noticed a dark brown animal drinking at the water's edge about 200 yards away. The animal then stood up and moved into the woods walking like a human, appearing broad-shouldered and muscular. They watched it briefly for about 10 seconds before leaving camp hurriedly.
