Sasquatch sighting in Manitoba (1940)
Account
An elderly mail carrier told the witness he was returning by horse and buggy from a dam community in the 1940s when a tall hair-covered wild man came from the bush screaming. His horse bolted and the creature ran alongside the wagon. He said he kept his head down and pretended not to see or hear it, which he believed saved him.
