Two turkey hunters near Trout Lake are screamed at by a large black animal

Two companions on an early-morning turkey hunt first heard a limb snap and saw a large dark animal walking away. About half an hour later while calling from a ground blind, the woods went quiet and a short siren-like scream came from behind them. They then saw a large dark furry animal running away through small trees, pushing them aside, and they left the area.

Possible tracks and vocalizations outside Lumby

On Jan 14, the witness and his girlfriend hiked from the field across the creek to an old skidder trail. There they found large, widely spaced footprints in deep crunchy snow that the witness could only match at a semi-run and that crossed a fallen log without disturbing the snow on top. Nearby they saw a tree with bark stripped all around the lower five feet. Feeling unsafe, they stopped investigating and left the area.

Animal behaviour in Pennsylvania (2005)

The witness was deer hunting on a friend's wooded property in Pennsylvania during buck season in 2005. From a ridge he watched a single hairy biped for about 10 to 12 minutes as it broke a small pine tree, investigated the stump, and appeared to eat ants from a rotten stump. The creature sniffed the air, showed no aggression, then walked away apparently unaware of the witness. The witness noted an apparent left arm injury and described the animal as about his own height, thin, and more human-like than expected.
