Sasquatch sighting in Texas (2021)

The guest was on his North Texas farm on a Saturday morning going to his prayer room when he saw a large reddish creature moving quickly across distant pastures. He recorded it on his phone from about 125 yards as it carried what looked like a gray deer on its back.

Shots were allegedly fired at the creature without apparent effect.

Unidentified sound in Texas

While setting up a deer stand with his father and son about 100 yards from the truck, the witness heard a huge gyro-like startup sound rise to a high-pitched hum then stop. Returning to the truck they found precise hieroglyphic-like marks in the dust and a small handprint with very long fingers on the door edge. Nearby in an acre-sized opening they found three equally spaced triangle-arranged ground indentations.
