Handprint in Oklahoma (2023)

While the witness did a live broadcast from a hilltop cemetery, companions stayed with trucks below. On return they found human-like but non-human hand, forearm and elbow prints low on the truck beds, a tailgate down, and an unlatched cooler with water dripped out. A later expert comparison said the fingerprint ridges ran straight across rather than swirling like human prints.

Sasquatch sighting near Davie, Florida (1974)

Handprint (1970)

On a southern farm in the early 1970s horses repeatedly became visibly sweaty, panicked and ran the pasture with wide eyes the morning after nighttime disturbances. The family found braids in manes and tails and large handprints in sweat on flanks and necks. A neighbor's similar report helped them conclude Sasquatch-like visitors were molesting livestock.

Couple has car shaken and sees large animal up close near Tebbetts

The witness and a date were parked in a car in the woods on a fall evening when the car shook and a huge face appeared at the driver window at very close range.

The creature was described as over 7 feet tall, brown, fast-moving, and left muddy handprints and scratches on the car before the witnesses left for town.
