Scream (2004)

The witness spent a spring day fishing and wading upstream alone. Near a recently fallen tree he encountered three dogs, one of which acted aggressively, then heard an extremely loud, powerful vocalization he could feel, saw riverside vegetation including a small tree whip and break, and had a stick splash down in front of him though no person was visible. He left the creek frightened.

Footprints found near Honobia

The witness and companions traveled to southeastern Oklahoma to search for evidence in a reported hotspot. After an uneventful overnight patrol, the witness and one companion discovered three clear footprints and a possible fourth on a steep uphill road at midday.

A witness visited a highway south of Mandaree a day after hearing of a reported sighting and found a long line of large footprints in snow running parallel to the road.

Huge animal screams and circles campsite at Finger Lake Park

Four people were camping around a campfire at Rocky Fork Lake in July 2004 when a large animal came from the woods to the south, circled the campsite three times at close range, and ran toward the lake emitting a high-pitched howl and pig-like squeals before running behind the camp. The group later noticed smeared foot impressions at the site, but rain had obscured detail and no identifiable evidence was preserved.

Structure or nest near Haliburton, Ontario (2004)

The witness and companions cut through dense brambles off trail and broke into a large interwoven tunnel system running for thousands of meters. The tunnels opened into a large bowl-shaped crater whose floor was covered with thousands of old and fresh animal bones, including deer, bear and moose skulls with gnaw marks. Frightened and unable to tell which tunnel they entered by, they hacked straight out to the trail and returned to the cottage.

Possible tracks found by snowshoers near Steamboat Springs

The witness and a companion were snowshoeing off trail and became stuck in a steep ravine.

After briefly looking away at a noise, the witness went inside for a handgun, and on returning the figure was gone though sounds remained in the woods. A large footprint was found the next day.

Possible track and vocalizatons at Table Rock Lake

The witness reports finding a single large human-like footprint in mud at the back of a lake cove while scouting for animal sign. The print was much larger and deeper than his own tracks and sat isolated in the washout, leading him to infer a difficult leap between rocky shorelines unlikely for a barefoot human. He notes the find alongside earlier strange vocalizations, while acknowledging mundane explanations remain possible.
