Account

At sunrise the witness and his hunting partner glassed a replanted clearcut for turkeys. They heard a loud snap to the side and watched a tall dark figure move downhill away from them. The figure showed only head, shoulders and upper back above young trees and its steps produced audible thuds while moving in a smooth upright walk.
