Account

Two occupants driving on Highway 54 west of El Dorado Springs at night reported their headlights illuminating a tall, hair-covered biped crossing the road. The creature crossed from right to left and stepped over a guardrail without breaking stride, then continued through a field where cattle moved away from it. Witnesses judged it to be over seven feet tall based partly on its size relative to the cattle.
