Forest Ranger finds broken trees, "nest", pile of dead rabbits

In mid-summer 1970 the witness was looking for a target-shooting spot in a meadow east of the Sandy River. He found birch saplings snapped off and arranged into a large nest-like structure near a pile of gutted rabbits, with a strong odor of death, unnatural silence, and a feeling of being watched. He left to find a ranger station, and one ranger returned with him, took photos, and also noted the silence and feeling of being watched.

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
