Early morning road crossing north of Branson

The witness was driving south to work in the dark in the early morning when a bipedal creature crossed the two-lane highway between the witness's vehicle and a truck ahead. The creature took three to four steps to cross, stepped over a guardrail, and walked up a steep hill into brush on the right side of the road. The entire event lasted an estimated 15-30 seconds and the driver ahead did not appear to notice.

Possible mid-day sighting by motorist on Hwy 465 outside Branson

The witness was driving west on a highway in Taney County, Missouri on a sunny afternoon when he noticed a large black biped standing by a large tree about 50 yards from the road. He described it as at least nine feet tall and very wide, with long thick fur and a conical head set tight to the shoulders, and was certain it was not a bear. He drove back the next day, saw nothing, and took the absence as confirmation the figure had been real.

Memory told of a nighttime close encounter in the Henning Conservation Area near Branson

Two companions walking a hillside trail at night heard a loud snap and saw two large bipedal figures silhouetted against city lights. After one companion shouted, a second shorter figure stood up beside the taller slumped figure, and both fled on two legs crashing through small trees. The witnesses estimated the taller figure at 7.5 to 8 feet tall, hid at the fire tower overnight, and noted broken limbs and a sweet unpleasant odor in the area the next morning.
