Account

The witness was walking along a creek-side sandy path looking for animal tracks and entered a small meadow. Feeling as if watched, the witness turned and saw a large brown bipedal creature squatted on the path. The creature stood, moved quickly and silently up a brushy embankment and disappeared. The witness then found a single dark stool on the path where the creature had been.
