Her husband did not see it but reported hearing crashing through woods and a splash as they backed up. Shortly after while driving on they heard a repeated wuh / huffing noise, stopped to check under the vehicle, and found nothing.

Late afternoon sighting in the Pine Barrens

The witness and a companion stopped while driving on a dirt trail when the companion saw a tall brown figure cross the road. The witness got out to check and reported seeing a black-faced, ape-like animal with sandy-brown hair peering from brush about 25 feet away. After a few seconds it stood fully upright and ran bipedally into the pines, and the pair later heard bipedal running approaching the car before leaving.

Hunter has early morning encounter 8 miles north of Riverdale

A deer hunter sat in a tree stand on a crisp clear morning while noticing a strong foul odor. While walking back along an old logging trail around 10 a.m., the hunter saw a very large upright hairy animal step onto the trail, pause and look, then calmly walk away bipedally. The hunter ran the opposite direction, dropping gear, and later returned to find no tracks but noted a freshly broken branch.
