Sasquatch sighting near Evadale, Texas (2005)
Account
While checking timber lots for a paper mill job in the afternoon, the witness heard a chimpanzee-like sound and found a large primate-like animal squatted with its back to him. The animal stood, watched him, then walked through the river and ran off to the west. He later described its face and hands in detail and learned from his grandmother that locals called it a bugger.
