Tracks found and casts made beside a spring on an old farm near Glady (Photo attempt of daytime sighting attached)
Account
On September 11, 2016, the witness went to feed trout kept in a barrel at a spring on a family farm and found two fresh tracks in soft mud where cattle had been drinking. The witness chased the cattle away and made a plaster cast of the right track, noting the left track was angled and could not be cast. An investigator later visited the site, documented the stick fence around the spring and the cast dimensions, and noted additional sounds reported at the location.
