The patrol stopped, smelled a musty swampy odor, and performed a break-contact drill firing blanks while running to extraction. The commander later dismissed it as probably a bear.

Dogman sighting in Louisiana

The witness went alone to hunt deer across from his father's house. After noticing total silence, smelling a strong odor and feeling a rumbling, a large black canine-like creature stood up 13-14 feet away and turned to look at him. He raised his rifle, the creature leaped about 20 feet, ran on all fours at extreme speed and vanished into a narrow thicket, after which he backed out deeply shaken.

The guest's older brother stayed in a rustic dog-trot cabin with no power. He heard something walk across the porches, went outside with a gun and spotlight, saw nothing but smelled strong fresh fish. The sound returned when a crank radio was turned on and off, leading the brother to believe a Bigfoot had visited the porch.

Growl in Alberta

While descending a mountain trail alone after climbing with companions, the rider stopped for unknown reasons and heard loud growling nearby that the mind reinterpreted as water. The rider felt suddenly hot and euphoric and began removing clothing despite cold wet weather until companions arriving and splashing through water broke the state. Later on the same ride the group found very large fresh human-like footprints without claws in untouched mud.

The witness returned with a friend in law enforcement to camp at the same area. Friday night they heard close footsteps and saw hogs, Saturday they measured the sighting location and saw broken vegetation, and Saturday evening the friend silently alerted and later said a creature watched them from about 15 feet.

The witness paddled a kayak in pre-dawn darkness to scout fish and noticed unnatural quiet. After daylight he smelled a horrific odor, heard a powerful scream-growl that shook vegetation, and saw a face behind a palm frond. The creature charged into the water to within about 15 feet while he held up a paddle, stared with a hostile expression, then turned and walked back to the woods.

Sasquatch sighting in Indiana

While hauling a refrigerated load north at night, the witness pulled onto an exit ramp to check a temperature alert and began diagnostics on the trailer. The witness noticed a musky odor and breathing, turned on cab work lights, and found a tall hairy face leaning in within a few feet. When the trailer engine kicked on, both were startled, the creature slapped the unit hard enough to break fiberglass and then ran across a field with heavy footfalls.

Sasquatch sighting in Oklahoma

The witness drove out at night looking for a lost small dog and pulled to the side of a lonely road near a ball field and woods. While outside the pickup the witness heard brushing sounds and smelled a skunk-like odor, then got back inside. The back of the truck was then bumped hard enough to feel like a low-speed rear-ending, and a tall silhouette was seen in the taillights while a yell/scream was heard, prompting the witness to drive away.
