Possible stalking at Echo Lake near Campbell River
Two coworkers surveying a woodlot heard close bipedal-like footsteps in dense brush in the morning, then heard a single twig snap near their midday lunch spot. Later that afternoon a large hidden animal bolted from behind a knoll toward the treeline as one worker walked past, crashing through tall brush. The writer heard the movement but did not see it; the companion briefly saw only the dark top of its head or back above tall shrubs. The writer interprets the three incidents as one animal trailing them through the day.
