Possible approach to homes at night near the Des Moines River outside Saylorville

The witness was awakened at night by distressed dogs and heard a heavy, bipedal-sounding walker moving in dry reeds behind the house. Two large neighbor dogs repeatedly charged into the dark toward the sound and yelped as if struck, retreating to the porch light. The disturbance lasted about an hour and was also watched by family and neighbors. Days later the witness found reeds smashed flat along the fenceline and a large mashed area, but no identifiable footprints.
