Medical doctor recalls his daylight sighting as a teenager near Huntington

The witness and a companion were walking in woods behind a relative's farm when they came to a hilltop clearing. They watched an unfamiliar animal bent over using its upper limbs for several minutes. The animal then stood bipedally, looked at them, and left by jumping over a barbed-wire fence at the edge of a thicket, after which the pair ran back to the farmhouse.

BFRO YEAR: 1979 -'84 Wayne County, West Virginia Class A #1207

One of several sighting and vocalization reports. When witness called out " it stood up at the edge of the hill and huffed and puffed."

Five people drove to a rural spot at night to hang out. After dogs in a hollow below barked then fell suddenly silent, the group heard movement in brush and saw a tall fur-covered figure stand at the hill edge making huffing sounds. When the driver turned on the car headlights the figure covered its face and moved behind trees as the group fled in the car.
