Traveller observes lumbering figure along roadside near Danville

The witness was driving alone at night in rain and patchy fog when the headlights revealed a large four-footed animal off the road. The animal turned its head to look toward the lights and then lumbered toward the treeline while being watched for only seconds. The witness first thought of a huge dog or lion-like animal but later concluded it resembled a Gigantopithecus-like creature.
