6 January 2012 Mount Pleasant, Isabella County, Michigan Class B #31860

Homeowner recounts multiple instances of rock throwing and vocalizations near Mount Pleasant

Late at night the witness took the dog into the backyard overlooking a river and heard grunt-like vocalizations from the opposite bank. From the deck the witness heard something large moving through brush and keeping pace with them, then heard a loud crack, a large splash, wading steps, and a rock thrown across the river. The witness heard water dripping and shaking off fur and a strange snort before the animal moved away through underbrush. The next morning a previously intact rotten stump across the river was found split with half lying at the river's edge.

Passenger sees large biped figure on a powerline trail near Octavia

On a dusk drive in early January 2012, the witness was riding in the back seat when he noticed a large dark figure standing by a power-line pole near the tree line on a hill.

The two companions in the car did not see it, and the witness concluded it was a sasquatch.

2012 Romulus, Wayne County, Michigan Class B #48824

Ongoing activity and possible vocalizations recorded near Detroit Metro Airport

The witness claims hearing a loud, deep human-like howl near home for 6-7 years, mostly at night around 1 a.m. and continuing until daybreak, sometimes with a second higher-pitched voice. The sound is described as moving west to east past the house and back, triggering dogs and coyotes, and increasing with heavy plane traffic and hot humid nights. The witness recorded the sounds on a cell phone and suspects the source used the barn in winter.

The eyes retreated deeper, dropped low and disappeared while the group returned to the cottage.

January 2012 Jacksonville/Starke, Bradford County, Florida Class B #33088

Couple find large footprint on Lake Cosby

A couple on a day trip to a lake house noticed an unusually large footprint in marshy mud beside the dock. They left the dock for a closer look and described a very deep right footprint about 11-12 inches long and 5 inches wide with well-formed toes, heading toward the lake. One witness found his own foot barely sank when trying to recreate the depth, and the pair had no camera and found the print gone on return.

Fall 2012 Avoca, Iowa County, Wisconsin Class B #43742

Property owner reports possible activty near Avoca

A few nights after hearing loud vocalizations at the farm, the witness rode an ATV down the driveway to close a gate. The headlights caught a very wide-set pair of yellowish-white eyes in the treeline about seven to eight feet off the ground, causing intense fear and a quick retreat after closing the gate. The next day the witness found no low branches and no accessible ground to check for tracks, estimating the eyes would have required an approximately eight-foot-tall standing figure.
