Dogman sighting in Michigan (2019)

The witness, a wildlife biologist, was deer hunting at dawn on his forested property when a jet-black canid-like animal stalked toward him. He fired a .45 at its head with no apparent effect, then yelled, after which it rose bipedally to about seven feet with a broad chest and long thin arms. He fired twice more into its chest, it sank back to all fours and retreated, leaving only uncastable imprints and no blood or bullets found later.

The group later heard low growling and groaning, and the following afternoon the witness found a large footprint in a nearby sandbox.

May 1999 Copemish/Thompsonville, Manistee County, Michigan Class A #26544

Daylight sighting of a white creature while walking near Thompsonville

The witness was on an early spring morning walk along a two-track through swampy woods when she heard movement and saw a large white figure moving quickly away about 50 yards away through dense undergrowth. She followed it visually for some distance and noted its rapid movement and swinging arms. The next day she returned to the same area and found very large footprints with only three toes visible and widely spaced, which she interpreted as confirming the figure was not a human.

Poorly defined pushed-in depressions were later noticed in soft gravel and sand in the general area.
