YESTERDAY (!!!): Bigfoot knocks (from multiple creatures) near Port Townsend

While walking alone in the afternoon the witness noticed a brief skunk-like odor and then heard repetitive knocking from the woods.

Partial sighting near Neosho, Missouri (2025)

Later the same night the two men returned to the same pull-off with another couple to show them the spot. While shining a light west of the car, one witness watched a golden-brown shape repeatedly duck behind a bush. No sound was heard, nothing was seen when headlights swept the area, and daylight inspection suggested the shape would have been much taller than first thought.

Rock throwing near Neosho, Missouri (2025)

Three young men walked a trail at night in a conservation area to look for a pond. Rocks were thrown toward two of them from the woods, strange pacing, a low growl, and rhythmic booming sounds followed them. They found fresh green trees snapped and laid across the trail blocking the path, then were hurried out by more rock throws and close movement before the woods went quiet and normal night sounds returned near the car.

Train spotters describe night time incident at Folkston Funnel (railroad junction)

Four people were train-spotting and camping by railroad tracks at night when they heard noise in brush across the tracks and saw eyeshine and a large silhouette swaying. They reported a foul odor, cats fleeing, and rocks thrown toward them from the brush direction, with impacts sparking on the tracks. One teen went inside while the remaining witnesses heard chatter and a branch snap south of the first figure, leading the witness to think two creatures were present. The witness then lit the brush and saw a tall bipedal silhouette stand before it disappeared, with no further activity over the next two nights.

As they retreated toward their vehicle they heard movement in brush going deeper into the woods, and when the witness whooped back the chatter answered again. They hurried back to their car.

Multi-witness daylight sighting 3.5 miles SE of Sixmile Lake (Leech Lake Reservation)

Two relatives driving slowly while hunting for grouse were alerted to a large dark figure in a grassy ditch beside a side road.

At the site they noticed a strong foul odor and minor ground disturbance but no clear footprints on packed gravel. Later the same day a game warden told them that spot was known for similar reports.

DUSK PROTEST -- 23 miles south of Macon -- Big rocks thrown around sundown near remote boat launch on Ocmulgee River

In the early evening the witness and a companion parked their off-road vehicle at a remote riverbank and walked to the water's edge after noticing a strong foul odor. Two large stones were thrown from the direction of the woods in a high arc over their heads and landed in the river behind them, though the thrower was never seen or heard. The pair left the area quickly and later associated the odor and rock throwing with sasquatch-related accounts found online.

As the witness took the lead near a thicket he heard a close juvenile-like two-syllable vocalization but saw nothing with his light.
