17 April 2017 Neosho Falls, Woodson County, Kansas Class B #62352

Group of fisherman with a possible sighting of whitish/grey creature outside Neosho Falls

Three companions were night fishing from a bridge when the witness exchanged whoop calls with something across a field that steadily approached. After packing gear and waiting by a truck with lights on, they heard footsteps in a ditch and briefly saw only the whitish-grey top of a head. The entity then gave a loud whoop from about 20 yards away, prompting them to flee, and daylight examination the next day suggested it was over seven feet tall.

Man living off grid hears strange occurrences including knocks and whoops at Goose Creek Lake

Scream near Pikeville, Kentucky (2017)

The witness and a fellow priest were in a lit open picnic area returning toward the building when they felt heavy stomping that shook the ground and heard a powerful scream-howl. Attempts to return to the building or cars triggered more screaming, grunting and felt vibrations, keeping them on a picnic table until sunrise. At sunrise they heard crashing and saw trees moving as something scaled a steep rocky hill incredibly fast, and a neighboring resident later said food offerings were left to calm activity.

Whistle near Pikeville, Kentucky (2017)

The witness hiked alone up the old coal road in darkness to get back in shape and pray. Loud bird-like whistling kept pace nearby, pebbles and rocks landed precisely at the feet, a large stick landed pointing at the witness, and loud trudging was heard. The witness backed down the road, then ran to a lit area as rapid movement rushed uphill faster than a person could move.

Hunter's whistles answered while digiscoping a Moose on Fort Hall Indian Reservation

While hunting in southeast Idaho in fall 2016, the witness was photographing a moose through a spotting scope and whistled to make it stop. Five high-pitched whistles came in immediate response from a brush patch, which the witness believed was not the moose.
