Memory told of nighttime sighting by motorists on New Douglas Road

Two people driving west at night saw a large brown hairy creature cross the road in their headlights. It moved very quickly from one steep bank to the other, shifting from all fours to two legs as it crossed. They returned about 30 minutes later with two others but saw nothing further.

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
