Sasquatch sighting near Monterey, California

A visitor from the UK went to a beach near Monterey to photograph sea otters at sundown. She watched six very large, hairy bipeds come around a cove, with a large male wading while others handled seaweed on the sand. After her camera gear clattered on rocks, the male approached and argued vocally with a female before threatening her, after which she lost consciousness.

Sasquatch sighting near Nowata, Oklahoma

While hunting over multiple seasons, one hunter repeatedly saw large round dark shapes partly obscured by trees that he first took for deer rumps. The shapes never offered a full shot and sometimes appeared as several at once, with slight movement. He later concluded they were peeking creatures rather than deer.

The boyfriend's father and a companion went at dusk to look at farmland near the river. They heard the same gorilla-like and howler-like sounds the guest described. As they tried to drive away something lifted the rear of their car, and the father saw only a hair-covered dome-shaped head and shoulders in the rear window before it dropped the car and they fled.

Rock throwing near Granbury, Texas

Sitting atop stored freight cars at night the witness and his friend threw rocks into the woods and heard one hit flesh with a deep thud.
