He never saw an animal directly and only later considered a Bigfoot explanation after discussion with a relative.

Possible vocal interaction with children playing at dusk near Hot Springs

Several children playing outside exchanged yelps and whistles with an unseen source that sounded progressively closer, moving from the mountaintop to the woods' edge. When a boy took a hunting dog to the treeline, the dog stayed silent with raised tail and ears, stopped, and refused to advance. An adult also noted a foul smell during the few-minute interaction, after which the sounds stopped.

Family describes the strange activity at their former rural home near Wesley

The witness was at home with a neighboring family in late August, watching children play in the yard near sunset.
