Man encounters a bigfoot on property near Suwannee River State Park

The witness was walking his two dogs behind his house in the early evening when the dogs froze staring at the woods and then fled inside. The witness then watched what he first thought was a 3- to 4-foot stump stand up into a 7- to 8-foot hair-covered biped. The creature grunted, walked deeper into the woods with heavy steps in a zig-zag path, glanced back with a growl, and disappeared near a gas-line dirt road, leaving a wet-dog and pine-sap odor.

Rural resident hears knocks, howls & finds a footprint near Wellborn

A few days after finding a large footprint near a swamp by his home, the witness was inside his house just after dark when a very long loud howl was heard. Shortly after it ended he heard three wood-on-wood knocks, knocked back the same pattern from his railing, and received another knock response. A short time later a second, lower-pitched and more distant vocalization was heard, which the witness felt came from a second source.
