The witness reported seeing a tall, wide, black furry figure leaning against a tree near a dirt road while riding an ATV, then speeding home.

Homeowner sees red eyeshine and hears wood knocks in woods near Becket

The witness was on the back porch at night when a noise was heard moving in the wooded hillside. The witness shone a flashlight into the woods and saw reddish eyeshine staring back for about 20 seconds, during which it blinked. The animal then turned and walked away uphill deeper into the woods, and the witness later measured a reference tree to estimate the eye height at about 7 feet.
