Hunter recalls incidents near Pecks Lake

In early November 1989 the witness and a relative returned after dark with a lantern to track a deer shot earlier with a bow. When the blood trail stopped they heard heavy bipedal footsteps pacing, saw a very large dark outline, and heard a guttural warning sound. Feeling threatened, they backed out while the witness held a handgun, and a next-morning search found neither deer nor tracks.

Woman recalls daylight sighting while driving and a possible incident at a home east of Gaylord

The witness was driving home from work on a secluded dirt back road on a sunny summer afternoon. From the car she saw a huge dark upright figure running bipedally through thick swamp beside the road, with a very thick upper torso and swinging arms, moving faster than a person or bear could. She heard a loud branch crack, glanced at the road, and when she looked back the figure was gone, so she continued home fearing another encounter.

Memory told of a possible encounter while deer hunting east of Manistee

The witness was deer hunting alone in a swamp in late November when he heard an unfamiliar loud scream to the north followed by a loud branch breaking. He became uneasy and walked out to his car while watching behind him. Near his car he noticed a broad, roughly 8-foot-tall bipedal form standing about 35 yards away behind dense cover, which he believed had followed him. He left with a handgun ready and avoided hunting the swamp for several years.

Possible daylight sighting by a mountain biker in the Pere Marquette State Forest

The witness was mountain biking on a game trail in thick forest when he stopped in a clear-cut opening to repair a flat front tire. A loud thump came from a burnt-out RV about 50-60 yards away, and he saw a large jet-black furred head appear in a broken window about six feet off the ground. The head tilted slowly to the side as he remounted his bike, and he rode back to his cabin using GPS. He reported smelling a pungent odor at the site and again outside his cabin the next morning, which he interpreted as the animal having followed him.
