Full-body sighting near Van Buren County

Late one night while bonding with a young colt, the witness went inside and then saw a creature run across the front yard moving alternately on two legs and four legs. She ran toward the barn fearing for the colt as something lifted the horse trailer onto two wheels and then struck the barn wall leaving a large hole. She commanded it to leave and later a bloodless dead coyote with two neck marks was found.

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
