Account

The witness and a companion were walking a logging road in the early morning while hunting. They heard an unfamiliar loud howl-like sound and found a five-toed footprint roughly the length of the witness's foot that looked deformed. The companion also saw the print and heard the sound. The area was described as unusually quiet, with two faint chirps and a brief feeling of being watched.
