Dogman sighting near Peru, Indiana (2007)

The witness and a coworker were driving home in separate vehicles in the dark when both swerved to avoid a tall headless black shape walking unnaturally in the road. They returned to the spot and found a very large dog-like animal lying across both lanes that lifted its head, growled deeply, stood up on two legs to eye level, stared, then dropped to a crouch and left toward a fenced ditch. A small wet mouse then stood between the two men cleaning itself and showed no fear when nudged, after which both left for home.

Three fishermen watched by "something"

In 1982 three companions were fishing along a river when they noticed an absence of birds and wildlife and a feeling of being watched. They then observed a figure watching them from a wooded ridge 50 to 75 yards away for about 45 minutes. When they left, the figure followed them at a distance as they walked about a mile back to the truck, during which they also noticed a faint dead-like smell.

Sasquatch sighting in Indiana

The witness was staying at a horse ranch to help with foaling. At dawn a distressed mare ran down a hill, and a tall white hairy biped was seen on the hilltop. The creature later came down to the barn, peered around it at close range, carried a dead foal and laid it in grass, then left with it through the woods. Neighbors later reportedly found the foal miles away with internal organs missing.
