Homeowner reports possible interactions that include his hunting dogs near Pax

The witness and a companion went to check on the witness's dog late at night after it behaved unusually. They shone lights uphill and saw a tall, thick figure that stepped back into darkness and vanished. The pair were frightened and fled.

Full-body sighting
October 2006 Fayette, Fayette County, Iowa Class B #23448

Possible nighttime encounter by campers at Volga River State Recreation Area

Two companions were sitting at the edge of a harvested field at night making rabbit distress sounds to call coyotes. After hearing twigs snap, they saw a large dark man-like figure showing its upper torso and glowing eyes on a small hill at the treeline that did not move or speak. They returned to camp to confirm their companions were still there, retrieved a shotgun for safety, but the figure was gone when they went back.

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
