Man hunting deer finds unusual feces and hears animal

Hikers find nest-like structure in dense forest north of Monroe

Two companions hiked in a dense second-growth gorge to look around the landowner's property. They found a concealed woven tunnel of undergrowth leading to a domed chamber and entered it but found no evidence or odor. Both felt suddenly spooked without seeing or hearing anything and left quickly, and bad weather prevented a return.

Hikers find tracks and a possible nest

Two people backpacking found several large fresh bipedal footprints on a steep forest slope.

Family hunting near Wahkiacus is stalked by a large animal

During a deer-hunting drive in foggy woods, the witness and his father found large bipedal tracks over their tire marks and concluded a bear could not have made them. As they circled back, an unseen animal tracked them, producing a strong foul odor and a high-pitched squeal before thrashing off toward the mother waiting at the truck. They later found uprooted small trees, additional tracks in camp, hair on fencing, and a woody debris structure, and heard screaming and a howl that prompted a relative to leave camp.

Three brownish figures seen moving on nearby foothill

The witness and two companions were talking on a porch in the afternoon when they noticed three brownish figures moving on a nearby foothill for about ten minutes. They walked to the spot after the figures left and found a heap of branches resembling a bed, with some branches torn from trees high off the ground. The witness noted an absence of claw marks or bear prints and questioned how the branches could have been placed without tools.
