Account

The witness was driving east on Highway 11 just outside Fort Frances in daylight when a tall dark moose-sized figure crossed the road on two legs from the south woods to the north woods. The figure moved casually and fluidly, covering the two lanes in a few steps. The witness sped up to try to see it go deeper into the bush but lost sight of it.
