Family describes the strange activity at their former rural home near Wesley

The witness was at home with a neighboring family in late August, watching children play in the yard near sunset. A loud, powerful call was heard repeatedly from across a creek about 150 yards away, starting low and rising higher and unlike any known animal. The adults listened and later searched the creek area with flashlights but saw nothing. Afterward the children avoided playing outside near dark.

Backpackers find long, oval shaped nests, three miles from camp

During a 1983 backpacking trip in wooded hills in Arkansas, the witness and friends found three oval rock-and-leaf structures described as nests, with bark-stripped branches beside two of them, plus a very large scat pile and a pine tree with bark stripped in long strips. They remained in the area two more days hearing unidentified spooky noises but reported seeing no animal.

Summer 1981 Huntsville, Madison County, Arkansas Class A #11430

Two young men have a sighting while spelunking near Huntsville.

Two companions searching for a cave rested in a pasture near a wooded ridge around midday. They heard something large moving in the woods behind them and then saw a tall hair-covered being partly obscured behind a tree a short distance away. The figure disappeared quietly without a clear departure sound, leaving them frightened, and they left the area quickly.
