Account
While mushrooming, the witness and two relatives noticed a strong odor and got into their van. A young relative then saw a creature standing behind a tree about 20 feet away. After driving away, they watched the same creature come up an embankment, cross the road in front of them, and move through the trees alongside them before they lost sight of it but could still smell it.
