At dusk, swimmers hear vocalizations and whistles near Lake Oroville

Three people were at a lake launch ramp at dusk when the witness imitated a whistle from a recording. Movement was heard approaching through brush above the lake to within about 200 feet. A light showed eyes low along the treeline, and whistling exchanges continued until the group left in their car.

Mountain driver encounters creature crossing road near Oroville

A driver coasting downhill around a corner encountered a hair-covered biped crossing the road ahead in daylight. The creature first walked and then ran very fast, leaping into roadside brush without looking toward the driver. The observation lasted from about 100 feet down to about 40 feet.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
