Dogman sighting in Indiana (2004)

The witness was hunting alone on family land in southern Indiana when turkeys behaved strangely and he heard a large animal to his right. Peeking around a large tree he saw an animal he first took for a bear about 10 yards away, but its shoulders were too wide, with a long snout, pointy ears and black eyes. He backed out slowly as it moved toward the turkeys and appeared to stand up on dog-like hind legs before he lost sight of it and ran to a relative's house.

Fruit the witness had discarded in the yard the night before was gone the next day.
