Possible daytime sighting on Lake Cushman

While fishing from a small boat with a companion, the witness heard a large heavy animal running through shallow water near shore, after which birds fled, the area went silent, and a bad smell was noticed. Looking back into an inlet, the witness saw a very large two-legged figure standing in tree shadows and swaying side to side before leaving.

The witness was taking overnight ambient-noise measurements at a rural residence surrounded by timber land. Shortly after starting, after hearing distant coyotes, she heard loud scream-like howls exchanged between two directions for about 30 seconds. After a quiet period during which nearby dogs and a horse became agitated, she heard another solitary similar howl-scream from the same direction.
