Women sees tall animal pass by her bedroom window in morning daylight (8:00 AM)

On a sunny morning in late spring 2004, the witness looked out a bedroom window and saw a tall brown-haired biped striding past within a few feet of the house. She watched it for several seconds before retreating to the bathroom, and when she looked again it was gone. She said she tried to explain it as a bear but remained certain it walked on two legs.

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
