Daylight sighting by motorists on Hwy 24 near Seneca
The witness was riding as a passenger with a relative on a familiar road to visit friends when both noticed an animal in the road near a bridge over a swampy pond. After the driver slowed and sounded the horn, the animal stood upright, looked toward the car, then sprinted quickly across the swamp toward the woods. The witness stated familiarity with bears and claimed this was not a bear. When they returned shortly after, they saw remains of a small animal in the road that it may have been eating.
Recollection of a twilight encounter on Lake Keowee
While walking in a remote forested area near a lake at twilight, the witness saw a large reddish figure cross a dirt road and enter dense forest. The figure reportedly noticed the witness, then ran uphill paralleling the road while emitting a loud distress-like scream with heavy footfalls. The frightened witness fled the area.
