Deer hunter hears possible vocalizations and watches a tall dark figure near Russellville

While hunting in the late afternoon, the witness heard a loud long whoop followed by chatter apparently responding to distant shooters, then heard it again from farther along the treeline. The witness then saw a bipedal dark figure about 200 yards away walking in pines toward a break, where it stopped and crouched by a brush pile. The witness left without approaching closely and returned the next day, finding no sign but noticing an unusual odor.

Hunter has daylight encounter near Gills Creek

The witness was riding an ATV down a washed-out road on a family farm when he briefly saw a tall, massive furred animal about 150-200 yards away that reflected sunlight and then retreated into thickets. After approaching the spot, he heard loud running with breaking limbs, then two loud bangs like wood knocks, followed by prolonged deer snorting and stomping before he left. He returned the next day to photograph suspected footprints and hair found on a limb.

Youth has sighting along abandoned railroad line on edge of West Frankfort

Behind dumped washers and dryers the witness saw a hair-covered figure that stood upright, grunted, and shook a sapling.
