Boy sees a bigfoot while clearing land

As a teenager plowing bottomland alone, the witness stalled his tractor while turning under a tree. He then noticed a large dark bipedal figure along a distant fence line leaning side to side and moving a branch aside as if looking at him. After watching briefly he fled, managed to restart the tractor, and left; when he looked back the figure was gone.

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
