Sasquatch sighting in Mississippi (2020)

The witness was deer hunting alone from an elevated stand off a power line in a state wildlife management area on a December afternoon. After hearing heavy breathing and movement, the witness observed a large black hairy human-like figure first on all fours then sitting and standing. The figure vocalized in gibberish-like speech, screamed, grunted, approached to about 30 yards and remained for an extended period before tearing vegetation and moving off. While the witness fled toward a truck, movement paralleled the witness in the woods while vocalizations continued behind, suggesting a second individual, and the witness fired a shot in the air before driving away.

Sasquatch sighting near Collins, Mississippi (2007)

The witness went turkey hunting alone on a leased property he had hunted for years. After calling turkeys that suddenly fled, he saw a dark figure approach that he first mistook for a person, then recognized as a large hair-covered creature. The creature confronted him vocally, reacted aggressively when he reached for his shotgun, shook a small pine tree, then stared before walking away yelling, after which the witness fled to his vehicle.

Unidentified sound near Collins, Mississippi (2000)

Over seven years hunting the same lease, the witness repeatedly heard loud crashing like a vehicle moving through woods that stopped at cover, rhythmic knocking like hammering heard day and night, careful footsteps around his blind with nothing visible, and children's voices playing in a creek bed that vanished when he investigated. He initially rationalized the sounds as deer, neighbors, or real children.

Afternoon sighting by mother and daughter in Honey Island Swamp

Two witnesses taking a dog for exercise at the end of a swamp road noticed a large dark hairy torso-like shape beside a tree about 50-75 feet away and watched it shift for a few minutes. After driving to two other spots up the road, they heard footsteps approaching and then something running toward them through the woods, which frightened the dog. They left the area and returned later that afternoon, but the shape was gone.

Possible daylight sighting by boy near Meridian

The witness was walking alone in thick woods carrying a BB gun late in the morning. The witness noticed a brown-colored subject moving very fast at an angle across the view, first thinking it was a person on a dirt bike. The witness then realized there was no engine noise, only the sound of breaking sticks, and left the area quickly without telling anyone at the time.

Nighttime sighting by teens, near Meridian

Three teenagers stopped at night on a dirt road near a one-lane bridge to relieve themselves. They heard repeated grunting and growling from an oak tree with a thrashing limb, then watched a large hairy biped drop into a ditch and run through the car's high-beam illumination. It leapt off the bridge bank out of sight while its footsteps were heard continuing south, after which the group fled in the car.

Vocalization near Collins, Mississippi

Two seasons before the main encounter, the witness got lost after dark in rainy conditions and followed a creek bed to exit. He walked close to unseen animals that scattered with unusual grunts, then heard what sounded like several two-legged walkers flanking him on both banks before they stopped behind him. At the time he told others it was hogs, but later concluded it was a group of creatures watching him.

Dogman sighting near Taylor, Mississippi

A lineman elevated in a bucket truck at night was surrounded by five creatures that threw gravel and rocks at the bucket for over an hour. He fired a flare, saw four run toward it, and watched one large dog-like biped remain and react. He drove away with the bucket still raised.

Footsteps in Mississippi

The young witness and a friend finished fishing class and walked a short way down a trail to look toward another fishing spot. They heard a third set of footsteps that stopped when they stopped and called out with no answer. They then saw a blurry roughly six-foot-tall mass peeking from behind a thin tree about fifty feet away, left quickly, and avoided returning to that trail.
