Ongoing activity and sightings on a hunting lease in central Florida (witness sketch included)

At dusk in 2012 the witness was sitting alone in a tree stand during archery season. He heard a loud scream from a nearby swamp, then heard heavy footsteps circling behind him where he could not see. An object was thrown through the trees over him and a stone struck the tree he was in, after which he yelled toward the sounds and left for his truck.

Sasquatch sighting in Ontario (2012)

Two sisters were playing at night on their wooded family property when they heard gravel crunching footsteps and heavy grunting breathing. A huge hairy biped walked parallel to them, turned its head toward them after one yelped, and they fled inside. Family members first suggested a bear or person, but the sisters maintained it was far larger.

Sasquatch sighting near Box Hill, England (2012)

A jogger resting near the bottom of earth steps heard someone coming but no one passed. Feeling uneasy she turned to see a tall muscular ape-man with brown-gray fur and a flat face with a large square jaw staring at her ten meters away. It turned and left, after which she smelled a stale farm-animal odor, having earlier heard knocking on wood.

Scream in Minnesota (2012)

While bow hunting in a creek bottom the witness heard an extremely loud deep scream from several hundred yards away, after which a doe ran an odd looping route and bedded down. After dark he heard child-like giggling and overlapping chatter from about 50 yards moving through water and brush deeper into the woods. He waited until it passed, then left with a light on and an arrow nocked.

Twist near Kendall County (2012)

Investigators visited the ranch and found a grove of small trees twisted, including one twisted opposite the others. They also found large human-like tracks near a creek, some very long and wide. Overnight recording equipment left out captured what sounded like an infant crying in cold conditions where no infant should be.

The witness and his 12-13-year-old son were walking to their hunting spots before dawn. From across a small pond about 30 yards away they heard seven or eight very loud consecutive whoops, followed by total silence. They later could only match the sound to recorded alleged Sasquatch whoops.

Scream in Minnesota (2012)

On the next night the guide went to gather firewood and heard a very loud scream approaching from thick cover. The screaming repeated about five times close up and about thirteen to fourteen times total, feeling powerful in his chest. He returned to camp where the whole crew had heard it, and they stayed by the fire and slept poorly.

Vocalization in Minnesota (2012)

The guide was sleeping alone in a hammock set apart from his crew when he awoke to sobbing sounds and heavy bipedal footsteps moving through camp. A large presence stopped beside his hammock breathing heavily, and when he threw off his tarp his hand struck a tall muscular very hairy chest before the creature fled crashing through thick brush. No tracks were found on hard ground but the path through the brambles was clearly visible.

Sasquatch sighting in Florida (2012)

In 2012 the witness took his son to Myakka State Park. They found a 14 to 14.5-inch track off the main trail, followed back-and-forth walking in palmettos, and the son then saw a very tall creature for four to six seconds and drew it. Park staff directed them to a biologist who dismissed it without viewing the drawing.

Vocalization near Pecos, New Mexico (2012)

Four young people camped by a river in the mountains. During the day they found a very fresh opened deer carcass, returned to find their camp meticulously rummaged including an animal-proof cooler, and found a nearby large tent camp abandoned and dusty. Around 3 a.m. a huge heavy presence breathed deeply, smelled of wet animal and strong body odor, moved around the tents while the forest went silent, terrifying them until sunrise when they packed and left without speaking.

Vocalization (2012)

The witness and friends scouted a new graveyard with a digital recorder that captured a voice saying never return and last chance. They returned around 2-3 AM, one friend woke saying keep driving, and the driver later gripped the wheel, told the witness to turn off lights, and appeared stroke-like. After lights were turned on the driver had no memory of the night, and the group stopped ghost hunting.

Possible nighttime sighting and vocalizations in a backyard near Old Ripley

After shouting and tossing a small stone into the trees, the witness heard a shriek/howl and the stone was thrown back to land at their feet. The witness ran inside, then returned with a flashlight to find twisted vegetation and snapped branches and noted a foul smell.
