Account

Around 1995 the witness was checking cattle at night in a pasture near Cooper Lake. In the flashlight beam several yards away he saw a man-like, hair-covered animal judged to be about eight feet tall and noticed a urine-like odor. After a few seconds both the witness and the animal turned and fled in opposite directions with no sound heard from the animal.
