Account

The witness was alone in a tree stand before sunrise waiting near a bait pile. An adult female-like creature and a smaller juvenile emerged on all fours, then the adult stood, vocalized, and left with the juvenile after a distant reply was heard. The witness remained frozen, then backed out and fled to the truck and gave up hunting afterward.
