Account
The witness and siblings were playing outside in the morning when they noticed a dark shape lying under a hay trailer about 60-70 yards away where hay had been pulled down for a bed. The shape looked up at the sound of playing but remained only a dark form. The witness thought it was a bear and ran to get a parent, who did not believe the report.
