Vocalization in Texas (2020)

Over about four years the household noticed odd sounds, smells and disturbances around their wooded Texas property. They heard voice-like calls, hoots, growls and repeated wood knocks, found scat, stripped and snapped trees, and missing bait. A wide bare footprint with a deep heel was later found in a raised garden bed after crops were taken, though neither person ever saw an animal.

Summer 2017 Greenville, Hunt County, Texas Class B #65366

Woman home alone north of Greenville claims unusual nightly visitor

On the night of April 18, 2020 the witness was at home when a dog began barking persistently and a loud guttural growl was heard at the back door, also noticed by a cat. After waking her husband, who saw nothing from the back door, the witness called the dog from the front door and saw it react toward the back of the property. Looking from a guest-room window, she then watched a huge dark figure moving quickly across the neighbor's pasture to the northwest.

Growl in Texas (2016)

The witness was with two companions at a parking lot late at night during a group expedition. They walked toward a beaten crossing area and heard very close low guttural sounds, then backed out together. The witness also describes finding a detailed multi-size trackway in sand and hearing monkey-like chatter and a scream-like holler that night.

Tracks in Texas (2016)

The witness joined a multi-day guided expedition in dense woods. The group found distinct five-toed tracks, heard an owl-call answered oddly, heard a warning-like howl and later chatter, and saw saplings broken at angles. While forward of the group at night the witness used thermal to see a large heat mass between trees that vanished, and shortly after others in the same vicinity were growled at.

Family has multiple sightings and interactions in their backyard near Elgin

The witness reports nearly a year of interaction at a rural home property where food left in a tree was taken, rocks were tossed near family members, vocalizations and a strong odor were noted, and a large hairy figure was partly seen beside a tree. The family came to view the main animal as a gentle female and believed several others including young were present. Activity is said to have faded after new homes were built nearby.

May 2005 Shepherd, San Jacinto County, Texas Class B #11987

Vocalizations, wood knocks and strange chatter heard in the Sam Houston National Forest

In late May 2005 the witness and a companion waited in dense woods by a river after dark. After the witness imitated howls, something within about 200 yards answered with repeated loud deep growls, followed by about a minute of chattering from two directions. Later the witness struck a tree with a stick and heard similar loud banging from across the river for one to two minutes. The pair heard nothing else except insects and coyotes, and never saw the sources.

Hunter hears strange chattering and finds tracks in Sam Houston National Forest

The witness was bow hunting and walking a fire trail near dark when he found a large human-shaped footprint and photographed it and the surrounding woods. While photographing he noticed a strong layered odor of sour sweat, decaying flesh and musk. After walking back to his truck after dark, something growled at close range for 1-2 seconds, but a flashlight search revealed nothing and he left to develop the film.

They slowly backed out while keeping the gun pointed, then heard a loud whinny-like shout as they left.
