Tracks in Georgia (2021)

Since about 2021 the witness reports ongoing activity around his Georgia hunting property: a deep 15-inch footprint and an 8-inch track, peanut butter jars removed without triggering trail cameras, snapped-off trees, whistles, a tater rake disappearing and reappearing, pebble-sized rocks hitting his blind, and chickens taken through a hole four feet up. The only direct sighting was last week when scanning a power line edge revealed 4-5 foot high paired red eyes that ducked behind a tree and vanished.

In the morning the camp was undisturbed and a rock was found in a hammock behind the camper.

Possible rocks thrown and wood knocks 30mi ESE of Tulsa, off Rt. 51

The witness was fishing from a kayak on a pond at dusk when a large splash occurred about 15 feet away toward the shore. No movement was heard and no creature was seen. The witness inferred a rock had been thrown because the pond lacked large enough fish and nothing floated to the surface, and believed a person could not easily have reached that dense shoreline after heavy rain.
