Sasquatch sighting near Fort Worth, Texas (1982)

July 1982 middle of the night Fort Worth, Texas 3 witnesses

Account

The guest, his younger brother and his cousin were walking to a dam at night to get frogs. They noticed agitated cattle and a bad smell, then saw something crouching that stood up very tall. It followed them down the road as they walked backward, stepped over a fence, and ran quickly across a peach orchard. The next morning a deputy told them several cows had been found dead in that pasture.
