Footsteps in Wisconsin

The witness and his young son went squirrel hunting in a public forest reached through a swamp. On the trail back they heard loud bipedal footsteps, heavy raspy breathing, and a powerful growl from very close range but saw nothing despite sparse cover. The unseen presence paced them for about a hundred yards, then growled again and ran toward them through the swamp as they reached the truck and left.

Elk hunters find series of tracks in Mt. Zirkel Wilderness

The witness was elk hunting on horseback in fresh snow and found a human-like trackway crossing near camp with large four-toed prints. He showed the tracks to others in camp and followed them uphill about half a mile through timber. His horse became increasingly nervous sniffing the tracks and refused to continue in blow-downs, so he skirted the timber, found no exit tracks, and gave up the follow.

Hikers find large footprint and unidentified droppings

Two people walking a dog on a trail noticed multiple large human-shaped droppings along the uphill side and discussed them as possible territorial marking. After turning back when a deer startled them, they found a single deep, clear footprint partly hidden by branches and photographed it with a shoe and water bottle for scale. They searched briefly for a natural cause for the impression but left quickly because the companion and dog were agitated.
