Account
The witness's mother was talking on the telephone on the screened porch when the outside dogs began barking intensely. She saw a large beige animal crouched at the edge of the woods about 1000 yards from the house. The creature stood upright, looked toward the house, then walked into the woods, after which the dogs calmed; the encounter lasted about 15-20 seconds.
