Bow hunter recalls a small Bigfoot playing peek-a-boo with him east of Grayling
Account
The witness was deer hunting from a tree stand when a small hair-covered creature approached to within about forty feet. The creature remained behind a tree for about 15 minutes, peeking out at the witness and appearing to smile. The witness reported an unfamiliar smell and a strange snort-like sound, after which the creature walked away bipedally. The witness did not shoot and left the stand for the evening.
