Account

Two bow hunters found large human-like footprints with toe impressions at the muddy edge of a stock pond in the early morning. They followed faint sign a short distance, covered the clearest prints to protect them, and later returned to make plaster casts and photograph stride. The prints were measured at 18 inches long, and hair was collected from vegetation in a nearby ravine.
