Man see large prints outside of Long Barn

A witness hiking on snowshoes along a gated forest road in fresh snow found six large prints crossing the road. He photographed the prints and measured them with a ski pole, noting a straight-line trackway with a long stride and no other footprints nearby. He did not leave the road to follow the trail, and the prints were melting rapidly when he passed again about an hour later.

July 2000 Cranbury, Middlesex County, New Jersey Class B #1452

Couple hear loud screams near Cranbury. 15" long footprint (depression) found by couple in the same area.

After watching fireworks, the witness family drove north and heard very loud shrieking from a stand of trees. They turned back, stopped near the trees, and listened to repeated 4- to 5-second shrieks that sounded powerful and nearly human. Honking produced no change and the sound faltered then stopped after the witness shouted loudly twice, and it was not heard again on a later check. The source was not seen because it was dark and about 15 yards away at the far edge of the trees.

Brief sighting by a fisherman ; Tracks found ; Report from investigators.

The witness was fishing downstream from family members when he briefly saw the lower legs of a dark figure stepping from the creek onto the bank and into dense brush. He searched the spot and found wet marks on rocks, disturbed soil, and dung, which companions helped videotape. He concluded the figure was unlikely to be human given the remote, rugged terrain.

Nighttime sighting by two teens in southern Conecuh County

Two companions parked a motorcycle on a dirt road late at night and walked toward a nearby residence when they heard loud heavy footsteps and brush crashing approaching from a swampy area. They ran back to the motorcycle and fled as the sounds and heavy breathing closed in. As they drove away, one rider looked back and saw a very large, wide, dark hairy figure leap onto the road, land on all fours, then stand erect and grunt. The figure was silhouetted in bright moonlight, preventing detail of face or hands, and was estimated at about seven feet tall.

Large, barefoot, bipedal tracks found by trapper in a densely forested area

An experienced trapper reported finding a line of at least twenty large barefoot bipedal tracks that crossed a road and continued down a slope across a creek. The witness followed them briefly but stopped due to snow, blowdown timber and an approaching windstorm, and the original tracks were not measured or photographed. Weeks later an investigator toured the area with the witness and later found two additional tracks in soil, one estimated at 16 inches long with five toes visible and no claw marks.
