Account
At sixteen the guest says he went hunting alone behind his trailer on a sheep ranch in Myrtle Creek. About twenty yards past a gate he saw movement and watched a tricolored hairy creature hunkered like a rabbit for about two minutes. It then did a Superman dive into the woods without a sound and he found no further sign.
