Account

Two relatives found unusually large footprints soon after rain and photographed them. The larger impression was described as about 18 inches long and 6 inches wide with three clear toes and a possible fourth, with smaller tracks alongside. The prints lay at the edge of a gravel road leading downhill toward farmland.
