Growl near Port Angeles, Washington (2025)

The witness was staying alone in a small trailer-like Airbnb outside of town and had fallen asleep for the night. She was awakened by the bed swaying, wood creaking, a loud boom against the building and a deep low growl. She propped up, looked through a gap in the curtains and saw a large brown bipedal shape move very fast past the window with heavy footsteps, then hid under the covers in intense fear until morning without going outside to check.

Sasquatch sighting in Mississippi (2020)

The witness was deer hunting alone from an elevated stand off a power line in a state wildlife management area on a December afternoon. After hearing heavy breathing and movement, the witness observed a large black hairy human-like figure first on all fours then sitting and standing. The figure vocalized in gibberish-like speech, screamed, grunted, approached to about 30 yards and remained for an extended period before tearing vegetation and moving off. While the witness fled toward a truck, movement paralleled the witness in the woods while vocalizations continued behind, suggesting a second individual, and the witness fired a shot in the air before driving away.
