Full-body sighting near Van Buren County
Account
Late one night while bonding with a young colt, the witness went inside and then saw a creature run across the front yard moving alternately on two legs and four legs. She ran toward the barn fearing for the colt as something lifted the horse trailer onto two wheels and then struck the barn wall leaving a large hole. She commanded it to leave and later a bloodless dead coyote with two neck marks was found.
