Native American experiences a close encounter from her backyard outside the Yucaipa

August 2008 around 1 a.m. Yucaipa, San Bernardino County, California 1 witness

Account

On the night after an initial nighttime vocalization, the witness looked out a bedroom window around 1 a.m. after dogs growled and saw a very tall, hairy human-like creature standing 15 to 20 feet away in moonlight, visible from the midsection up. The witness made a cat-fight sound and the creature turned and walked away quickly toward the mountainous area behind the property. No odor was noted and a later check found no tracks.
