Hunter observes large Bipedal Creature jumping fence near Austonio

BFRO YEAR: 1981, 1982 5 PM Lovelady/Austonio, Houston County, Texas 1 witness

Account

While hunting deer from a stationary position on private land, the witness watched a doe jump a fence and then saw a tall hair-covered biped vault the same fence, land on two feet, and pause facing him before stepping off the trail into the woods. The sighting lasted about five seconds and was viewed through a rifle scope from about 75 to 80 yards away. The witness then checked the spot but found no footprints or odor.
