While bowhunting, man saw creature walking

The witness was bowhunting from a tree stand when a creature walked past about 75 yards away. He noticed the distinctive swinging motion of its arms and hands as it moved. At the time he was unfamiliar with Bigfoot and described what he saw to his hunting partner as a swish bear.

Anomadex

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
