Class A First-hand BFRO #41395

Daylight sighting outside Grain Valley near the Monkey Mountain Park Reserve

June 2013 about 3:00 in the afternoon Grain Valley, Jackson County, Missouri 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and a companion were driving toward a nature reserve parking lot in the afternoon to look for Sasquatch. Less than a hundred feet ahead, a large dark-haired muscular creature crossed the road on all fours from a field and disappeared. The witness reached for a camera but was too late, and a request to return to search for prints was declined. The companion reportedly interpreted the animal as a large dog, while the witness maintained it was unlike any known animal.
