Girls see tall upright animal shake tree then run off on two feet

Two companions leaving a house through the back noticed sudden silence followed by crashing sounds from a swampy gully below. They saw a large hair-covered bipedal creature standing in the water shaking a tree. The creature ran through the swamp and trees, and the witnesses immediately fled.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
