First-hand Oregon Bigfoot #790

Hunters hear loud vocalization

November 2002 dusk Wallin, Benzie County, Michigan 3 witnesses

Account

Three people had returned to their truck after deer hunting after dark when they heard a single very long loud vocalization from about a quarter-mile away. The sound began as a low moan, rose toward a howl, then fell into vibrato and ended with grunts. The writer said he had never heard such a sound in decades of hunting, while two relatives suggested a Bigfoot-type source.
