summer after dog died through this fall, late winter February-March and recent weeks New Hampshire #1fb67ac0-7980-44cf-b8b8-ba856b9cffb0

Vocalization in New Hampshire

After the family guard dog died, the household noticed an absence of bears, deer and other animals and a series of odd events. Large and strategic trees blocked paths to the creek, owl-like hoots and coyote-like sounds approached each other then turned violent, and something breathed, growled, scraped and slapped at windows, trailer and shed, mostly when the witness worked nights. The other dog became afraid to go out alone.

on July 4th of last year Michigan #83dc5bd9-39d1-4d38-a518-6e60b215f15b

Sasquatch sighting in Michigan

The witness was hiking upstream beyond a waterfall with two children and stopped to rest on large boulders by the river. A deer ran past, followed by a rock strike and the appearance of four hair-covered figures that killed the deer and gathered around it. The largest figure noticed the family, charged a short distance to their boulder, and screamed at them before stepping back after the witness shouted and another figure vocalized. The family walked out in shock, drove back to their cabin, cut their vacation short, and later sought counseling for distress and sleep problems.

the morning after evening shot of deformed buck North Carolina #b51f7e7c-1e8a-4f98-baae-45f0c86c5183

Growl in North Carolina

After evening-shooting a large deformed buck that ran into the woods, the guest returned at dawn and crawled into a low briar tunnel to follow blood. A tremendous growl vibrated through him, heavy stomping approached, and a towering shadow loomed over his back with visible flexing fingers. He talked calmly while backing out, then fled. Two days later he found only the deer's ripped-off head with crumbling bone.

BFRO YEAR: late 70's Happy Camp, Siskiyou County, California Class B #13839

Possible vocals heard by family camping near Happy Camp

A family camping in a primitive riverside area heard an extremely loud, shrill scream from near their trash area about 50 yards away after paper bags flared up the campfire. The sound moved rapidly downriver for several minutes, fading to a deep growl, while the adult dogs whimpered and the family became terrified. The father packed up camp that night and drove the family home, and the family later felt the sound matched a purported Sasquatch vocalization heard on television.

Man recalls adversarial encounter with an unknown creature near French Gulch

During midnight rounds at an isolated school compound, the witness crossed a suspension bridge and heard something raiding trash cans by the cookhouse. He threw rocks toward a large dark figure under the eaves, which stood erect, stepped onto the bridge, dodged thrown rocks, vaulted the bridge cables and fled upstream on two legs. He noted glowing eyes and a foul stench, then returned to his trailer without anyone else responding.

Cousins followed for a quarter mile

The witness and a relative drove into a forested area near lava flows and walked a short distance down a trail to watch the sunset.

Back at the car, something very close screamed and shook the bushes violently, frightening them into quickly driving away.
