Fishing family describes possible Class B activity (incl. tree pushover) 10 miles south of Canadian River

Account

Three family members were bank fishing in the early evening when they heard rustling across the road and felt they were being watched. They then noticed a skunk-like smell, heard a low grunt/growl sound and a large branch break. They watched a large tree get pushed over and fall, then left immediately without ever seeing a creature.
