Vocalization in Florida

The sounds followed until near the truck then stopped. The witness suggested poachers while the cousin insisted it was not poachers.

Sasquatch sighting in Florida

The witness's cousin was bow hunting alone from a tree stand about 20 feet up when a tall figure was seen peeking from a shaded trail about 45 yards away. It stood fully upright, walked silently to the clearing edge, looked directly up at the hunter, swayed while staring, sniffed loudly and showed human-like teeth before turning with upper body first and walking away. The cousin was so frightened the cousin could not climb down until companions arrived after dark.

Footsteps in Alaska

The witness camped with the sibling and a friend from the city in a clearing containing moose bones and antlers. After midnight they heard branching breaking and multiple bipedal-sounding runners circling camp in the dark, fired rifles without effect, found the dog terrified in the tent and felt something touch a tent, then saw large shadows in firelight. They packed out carrying the dog while being followed down the trail, with one silent individual flushing very close, until reaching the car.

Sasquatch sighting near Pioneer, Florida

The witness, then a 10-year-old boy, was catching reptiles in a dry creek bed behind his grandparents' rural property when a tall slender ape-like female appeared across the creek with an infant. He crouched and pretended to eat vegetation to avoid provoking her while they observed each other for several minutes. A taller darker male then emerged, bared his teeth and displayed aggressively, and the female positioned herself between the male and the boy. Both creatures then left into the brush, and the boy ran home and told his grandmother, who said she believed him.

Eyeshine in Indiana

In darkness the witness walked a logging path to his tree stand while two sets of eyeshine paralleled him side-by-side for a long distance. When he switched on white light at about 15 feet the eyes rose to about seven feet with a bark-like grunt, then vanished. From the stand he watched one taller and one smaller eyeshine peek from behind a tree until a neighbor's vehicle lights approached, when they crashed away loudly through the woods.
