Two sisters witness bipedal animal walk through yard
Account
When the witness was about 6 or 7 years old, she and her younger sister were playing inside their home and saw an upright hair-covered creature cross the yard in good light at dusk. The creature was about 100 feet away, looked toward them, and continued toward the woods and road area. Their mother did not reach the window in time to see it.
