Close daylight sighting of animal crossing road near Spirit Lake
Account
In the summer of 1967, the witness was riding as a passenger in a pickup returning from farm work when he felt tingling and looked behind the vehicle. He saw a tall, long-haired bipedal animal covered in hair that crossed the road behind them in four steps before distance and dust hid it. The animal did not look toward the truck. The witness kept the sighting secret for years and did not know if his two companions saw it.
