Man says they witness a fight between bigfoot creature and elk
Account
A group of five hunters was driving elk down a ravine when they noticed a large bull elk in a struggle. From several hundred yards away in the early afternoon they watched through binoculars and scopes an extended fight between the bull and a large hairy creature. The creature was wounded in the side by the elk but eventually brought the elk down, tore off portions, and left carrying meat while holding its wound. The hunters later retrieved the remaining elk carcass.
