Possible bluff charge toward a hunter in a blind near Copemish
The witness was deer hunting alone from a ground blind in a remote swamp after dark. While packing up noisily, the witness heard a heavy animal running through the woods, passing about 20 yards away. The footfalls sounded rhythmic like a person running, unlike a deer. The witness never saw anything because of darkness and dense woods.
Memory told of a possible encounter while deer hunting east of Manistee
The witness was deer hunting alone in a swamp in late November when he heard an unfamiliar loud scream to the north followed by a loud branch breaking. He became uneasy and walked out to his car while watching behind him. Near his car he noticed a broad, roughly 8-foot-tall bipedal form standing about 35 yards away behind dense cover, which he believed had followed him. He left with a handgun ready and avoided hunting the swamp for several years.
