Veterinarian reports possible activity and finds an interesting track line while camping near Paron
Two people camped overnight on a ridge to do night research with call blasting and wood knocks around a fire. Through the night they heard return knocks, unidentified howls and loud sigh-like sounds, and a rock landed near one of them when he stepped away from the fire. In the morning they found a line of large flat footprints that they measured and cast.
Deer hunter has a late afternoon sighting through his rifle scope in the Winona Wildlife Management Area
The witness was deer hunting from an elevated stand near a pond late in the day. They spotted an upright, hair-covered figure by a cedar tree and watched it through a rifle scope for under a minute. After the witness disengaged the gun's safety, the figure grunted and fled into brush. The witness later found hair on a broken limb and thumb-like marks and scratches on bark where the figure had been.
Late night encounter near Benton
In the fall of 1994 the witness walked into the woods behind the home at night with a flashlight and shotgun to scare deer away. He shone the light on a tall, broad, fur-covered figure standing still in brush whose eyes reflected the light. The figure grunted, yelled and moved toward him, the witness fired three times at close range then fled to the house, hearing it run and give a long loud warbling yell.
