Sasquatch sighting in Connecticut (2016)

The witness and a companion camped overnight on a remote section of trail while on a hunting trip. Through the night they heard whistles, a deep growl, a piercing scream and bipedal footsteps, saw a small figure peering from behind vegetation, and had a heavy log thrown into their fire pit. After firing a shotgun blast they heard crashing retreat, later found the camp destroyed with a tent lodged high in trees and gear snapped apart, and were pelted with rocks while leaving the area.

Heavy bipedal footsteps heard deep within Macedonia Brook State Park

In 2008 the witness and a companion were sitting at a secluded spot deep in the woods on a relative's large forested property. The woods became unusually silent, then heavy bipedal-sounding footsteps approached up a steep brushy slope. Both fled to the house without seeing what made the sounds.

Sasquatch sighting in Connecticut (2000)

After months of rabbits and chickens disappearing from locked hutches without feathers or remains, the witness went to feed animals after fresh snow. He found open doors and human-like footprints leading to the tree line and felt watched. He threw a stick at a trunk-like shape in the woods, which then stood and ran off on two legs crashing through trees. The family later moved cages closer to the house and continued to occasionally hear loud screams from the woods.

1 August 1986 Bristol/Burlington Town Line, Hartford County, Connecticut Class B #74290

Whoops and knocks heard by four locals camping north of Bristol

Four young people camped overnight in a wooded area in summer 1987. During the night they heard knocking, whooping, and footsteps around their tent, and something stepped on a companion's hand through the tent wall. Two of them looked outside but saw nothing, hearing only something heavy moving away quickly. Years later they interpreted the incident as a Bigfoot encounter.
