Motorist has late night sighting of a light colored creature on rural highway

The witness was driving north on a highway in the early morning when a large upright creature crossed the road ahead. The witness slowed while passing as the creature stood in a ditch facing away from the road. The encounter lasted about 15 seconds and was lit only by the car headlights.

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
