Three children have daytime sighting near Eureka

As children, the witness and two companions were fishing and walked up an old logging road when they heard a noise and saw a creature across the road in the trees. The creature stayed in cover across the road and kept pace as they ran back down toward a clearing, at times getting ahead then stopping to watch them. Once they reached the clearing, it was gone.

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
