Account

The witness and his brother were hunting in river bottoms when the witness lay on a game trail. A tall hairy creature climbed the far bank, ate leaves, then walked into the field toward him. The witness fled on foot as the creature dropped to all fours and appeared to cut him off, then he found large tracks with his brother.
