Two girls witness a large, hair covered baboon like creature squatting in the middle of the road

The witness was driving with a companion to a school game when they found a very large, hairy animal squatting in the middle of a narrow road. The driver steered toward it to avoid the creek and expected an impact from about ten feet away, but the animal dodged without contact and was gone when checked in the mirror. The pair later agreed it did not match a dog, bear, or other familiar animal.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

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
