Possible encounter by hunters camping in the Kisatchie National Forest

The witness and a relative were sleeping in a tent at their hunting camp when loud screams woke the witness.

While hunting with his dog, a hunter observes a creature in the brush

The dog ran into a thicket and barked, then a loud scream was heard over the barking followed by snapping branches, and the dog fled home. The witness then saw a tall dark outline standing in the brush about 25 yards away that seemed to start moving toward him, so he ran home and found the dog hiding.

The witness was paralyzed with fear until the mother pulled the witness from bed.
