Account

The witness and a companion were driving late at night when they saw a large upright animal standing by the road under a streetlight. It looked at them, then crossed the road, ran, and jumped down a steep wooded ravine. The companion panicked and urged the witness to leave, while the witness slowed to look and felt curious rather than threatened.
