Sasquatch sighting in Maine (1985)

summer of 1985 evening Maine 1 witness

Account

While jogging on a wooded dirt trail in the evening, the witness came around a bend and saw a huge reddish-brown shaggy animal standing in marsh water about 20 yards away. The animal was bent over with its back to him, digging into the bank with both hands and flinging mud behind it. Realizing it was not a bear or moose, the witness ran home terrified and returned once the next day before avoiding the spot.
