Snowbirds report stalking by a bigfoot at RV park 4 miles north of Green Swamp

The witness stayed up late watching TV in an RV while her husband slept. She heard a series of loud, deep nasal grunt sounds from outside, estimated at about 100 feet away, which drew cats to the window. After going to bed she heard two distinct knocks on the side of the RV. She did not look outside and could not match the sounds to known animals.

Possible early morning encounter by a hog hunter in his truck near Jupiter

Late at night the witness sat alone in a parked SUV before hog hunting when a large dark bipedal figure passed behind the vehicle, striking the trailer hitch hard enough to shake the truck. The witness observed it in a mirror as it moved away with long strides into adjacent woods. The witness remained in the vehicle for hours before continuing to hunt.

Car pulling camper hits something on US 129 South of Live Oak

Four men were driving south late at night towing a loaded travel trailer when a tall dark form ran toward the road on two feet. The car passed in front of it, but the trailer struck it with enough force to lift the trailer off the ground. The occupants stopped, backed up, and inspected the vehicles and roadway but found no body, blood, hair, or damage.

BFRO YEAR: 1971-72 Homestead, Dade County, Florida Class B #1719

Possible collision with vehicle outside Homestead

Early one Saturday morning in 1971 or 1972 the witness was driving south on US 27 when he stopped at a fresh single-car wreck with law enforcement present. He saw a car with a crushed front fender and overheard officers remark that no one could have walked away from such an impact and about a bear moving unusually. He did not see any animal himself but later heard a radio news report saying the driver claimed to have hit a Florida Skunk Ape that officers chased into a thicket.
