April 2013 Badger, Roseau County, Minnesota Class B #42596

Possible daybreak sighting by a motorist in farm country north of Badger

Before dawn the witness was driving slowly on an icy highway when headlights revealed a dark upright figure paused in the ditch. The figure then ran bipedally across the road in a few very long strides and disappeared into woods near a vacant farm. The witness described it as tall, bulky and black with long arms and immediately called the spouse. A later daytime check of the site found no tracks.

Summer 1994 Roseau County, Minnesota Class A #1060

Creature seen running and bobbing in and out of a ditch

Two people driving west toward work observed a creature moving east on the roadside, running while bobbing in and out of the ditch. They slowed for a closer look but could not identify it. They reported it was not a bear or human and was unfamiliar to them despite knowing local animals. The area was described as swampy.

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
