Family spots upright walking creature in the desert at night

Late in November 2006 the witness was visiting a relative in Yerington, Nevada, standing outside at night with four young relatives when animals began making noise. The group looked past a corral into the desert in bright moonlight and watched a large dark shaggy bipedal creature run quickly across the field with a stooped posture. Frightened, they went inside to compare accounts and agreed on the description.

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
