Account

The witness claims that while hog hunting near a roadside ditch, he saw a large brown bipedal creature crouching by the road. The creature reportedly stood, walked back and forth across the road, then crouched again before walking away on two legs toward a swamp. The encounter included heavy footsteps and a strong wild-hog-like odor and reportedly lasted about a minute.
