Shortly after they heard it again to the side, sounding like multiple chimps vocalizing, which the experienced hunter friend could not identify.

Object throwing in Michigan

During a bonfire with family and coworkers, the nephew carved an X in an apple and threw it into the woods. About 20-25 minutes later dirt seemed thrown over the group from behind, strange noises like a cat being murdered were heard, and the same apple rolled out between a guest's feet.

Partial sighting in Michigan

While standing on a raised deck calling for his dog late in the fall, the witness saw a dark brown figure in profile walk about six feet from right to left between the barn and house addition. It was as tall from the ground as he was on the deck. He went back inside without retrieving the dog.

Vocalization in Michigan

Sitting on the deck around 5:30 in the morning, the witness heard a large-lunged wailing sound then branches scraping the barn and a large presence the dog fled from. Later that morning his brother found gigantic footprints by the mailbox and his father tracked 18-inch prints going north to the neighbor's then back south to the barn, suggesting something had watched him.

Footsteps in Michigan

The witness was camping with a parent in the northern woods. Over three nights something large approached the tent from behind, breathing audibly and pressing against the fabric. The witness felt cold then heat, briefly could not move, struck the shape, and heard it walk away bipedally. After objects were thrown on later nights the pair left early, and the witness avoided night woods for years.

The witness and his son were rowing across a different lake on the same property around midday when they noticed a white, propane-tank-shaped object sitting on or just above the flat water with no reflection, sound, or wake. They watched it move slowly and silently across the width of the lake until it reached the far shore and disappeared into the heavily wooded shoreline where there is no boat launch or access. The witness said he photographed the object and later shared grayscale and color versions.

The witness and his wife were camping at their remote property and sitting by a campfire after sunset when a low white light approached, passed nearly overhead, and continued behind the trees. A few minutes later they heard yipping that rose and dropped into overlapping grunting, screams and yells from about half a mile away, followed by total silence. The witness said he had camped there for decades and never heard anything like it, and later felt a recording from another Michigan case sounded nearly identical.

Sasquatch sighting in Michigan

The witness sat alone in a raised blind before shooting hours and felt watched as the woods went eerily quiet. A yearling doe ran to his blind followed by other panting deer. Through his scope he saw a distant silhouette moving slowly through a valley about 200 to 250 yards away, which he believed was not a hunter.

Officers repeatedly responded to a woman's reports of someone on her roof. On a winter night the witness checked the house perimeter in snow and saw isolated footprint-like marks on the peak of the roof with no apparent access path. He did not tell the resident what he saw and advised her to call again if noises recurred.
