First-hand Bigfoot Society EP 849

Cryptid sighting near Kar Kook (1991)

1991 dusk Kar Kook

Account

While on special operations in a remote mountainous area of eastern Iraq at dusk, the witness and others had rocks thrown at them and saw two horned, hairy humanoids moving quickly and chattering. A sharpshooter fired and singed one's thick fur, after which both went over a sheer ridge and vanished. The witness reported strong musk like rotten fruit and believed the beings used cave entrances.
