One of them then watched a large dark animal dash across the trail on two legs with a quick agile motion. Both men heard the movement, but only one saw the animal.

The witness was hunting with two friends and hid alone in berry bushes to startle them.

The witness ran to the friends and later returned with them to find a squatted feeding spot and small broken trees.
