Class A First-hand BFRO #28355

Hunter watches running bipedal creature, finds possible scat in the Camp Blanding Wildlife Management Area

December 2009 around 8 to 830am Middleburg, Clay County, Florida 1 witness

Account

While hunting small game in the morning, the witness saw a bipedal dark-haired figure run between him and a companion and stop about 50-60 yards away to look at him for roughly half a minute before leaving. He estimated it at about 7 feet tall by comparison to a nearby tree and found no tracks due to standing water, only flattened grass. After rejoining his companion about a half-mile away, they found and examined an unusually large scat pile containing berries and grass.
