Sasquatch howls recorded in Madawaska Valley, SE of Algonquin Provincial Park

The witness and seven companions were staying at a rented cottage on Spectacle Lake. On the night of July 27 they heard intermittent howls from across the lake for about half an hour, then heard a branch break near the tree line. After going to bed something struck the cottage hard, followed by mumbling sounds outside a window and a long scrape along the wall; a morning search found no tracks, damage, or thrown objects.

Sasquatch sighting near Dundas, Ontario (2018)

The witness spent a week building a fire pit in a valley behind houses. A very tall dark-haired figure came down the hill, waved and said hello in a flat tone, smiled very widely, then played peekaboo behind trees. It then threw large river rocks from 70-80 yards away, landing close to the witness, who fled home and later estimated its height at 8-9 feet and found a discarded jacket.

Unusual thud and possible whoop heard along with feeling of being watched in Algonquin Provincial Park

The witness was lying awake in a tent at a Rain Lake campsite with a companion already asleep when a powerful but silent ground thud was felt very close to the tent, followed by a brief skunk-like odor. Later that night the witness heard an unusually loud whoop-like sound first taken for a loon. In the morning an indistinct disturbance entering camp and a freshly snapped tree stump were found, and while hiking out the witness felt watched.

Fisherman has morning sighting while boating up waterway near Sioux Lookout

Two people were boating in a creek on a rainy, windy morning when the witness saw a bulky black bipedal figure 30-40 yards away. The figure walked steadily toward the woods for 10-15 seconds, swatted a branch aside with its left arm, went up a hill and disappeared without looking toward the boat. The companion kept his head down against the weather and saw nothing.

Morning encounter with a moose hunter in northern Ontario

While hunting moose by ATV the witness stopped on a trail for a snack while a companion rode ahead to scout. After hearing brush movement and heavy footsteps, the witness saw a tall, muscular, dark-haired biped step onto the trail, look toward the companion's direction and then at the witness, sniff and grunt, then walk silently across a meadow into thick brush. After the companion returned they found only indistinct marks and disturbed vegetation, then heard a single loud crack like wood being struck and fled the area.

September 1986 Kirkland Lake, Ontario Class A #1561

Teen watches as sitting bigfoot eats blueberries

In late afternoon in September 1986 the witness was rabbit hunting and walking home on a regular trail when a strong foul odor was noticed. From about 12 yards away the witness watched for about 10 minutes as a large hair-covered creature sat cross-legged in a blueberry patch eating berries with its hands. As darkness approached the witness revealed himself, and the creature stood without using its hands and calmly walked away into the brush.
