Two turkey hunters near Trout Lake are screamed at by a large black animal

Two companions on an early-morning turkey hunt first heard a limb snap and saw a large dark animal walking away. About half an hour later while calling from a ground blind, the woods went quiet and a short siren-like scream came from behind them. They then saw a large dark furry animal running away through small trees, pushing them aside, and they left the area.

Large prints found in mud and then vocalizations heard south of Yakama Reservation

The witness drove to rented pasture to check fences where cattle had been getting out. He found a large tree knocked through the fence with strange hair on the wire, moved the tree and repaired the fence, then found very large fresh footprints in mud near a creek. He heard a grunt near the repair site and later a high-pitched scream from the same direction, found items tossed from his truck bed, then left and did not return.

Hunters observed creature just before vocalization screams were heard

The witness and his father were turkey hunting near a clearing at dusk when a dark figure emerged from timber and approached before abruptly fleeing downhill into a steep canyon. They later walked to the spot and estimated its height at about 6-foot-6 to 7 feet based on a tree limb. Later that night at a nearby camp they were awakened by an extremely loud, prolonged AHHH-like yell from the clearing direction, repeated about half an hour later from farther up the canyon.

Family hunting near Wahkiacus is stalked by a large animal

During a deer-hunting drive in foggy woods, the witness and his father found large bipedal tracks over their tire marks and concluded a bear could not have made them. As they circled back, an unseen animal tracked them, producing a strong foul odor and a high-pitched squeal before thrashing off toward the mother waiting at the truck. They later found uprooted small trees, additional tracks in camp, hair on fencing, and a woody debris structure, and heard screaming and a howl that prompted a relative to leave camp.

Hunter observes trio of animals near Nestor Peak Lookout

While hunting at dawn in the Nestor Peak area in fall 1982, the witness watched a smaller hairy biped notice him, scream and crouch to hide. A much larger similar animal then approached, touched the smaller one, and stared at the witness while breathing heavily, before the two walked uphill. A third slightly smaller animal joined them at the ridgetop and all three disappeared over the hill into the canyon.
