Bear hunter sees bigfoot mating
Account
The witness was on foot hunting bears near a small clearing when he spotted three brown hair-covered animals scuffling as they moved away. He hid behind a log and watched as two mated face-to-face on the ground while the third stood and moved nearby, then he fired a rifle shot that missed. The three animals then fled into the treeline running on two legs.
