Possible vocalization brings attention to a large figure just outside a home near Uriah

Around 1-2 a.m. the witness went to retrieve bags from a car near a carport and heard a snorting grunt.

Next morning he found disturbed ground suggesting large bipedal steps.

December 2007 Russellville, Franklin County, Alabama Class B #25619

Deer hunter hears possible vocalizations and watches a tall dark figure near Russellville

While hunting in the late afternoon, the witness heard a loud long whoop followed by chatter apparently responding to distant shooters, then heard it again from farther along the treeline. The witness then saw a bipedal dark figure about 200 yards away walking in pines toward a break, where it stopped and crouched by a brush pile. The witness left without approaching closely and returned the next day, finding no sign but noticing an unusual odor.

5 May 2002 Opelika, Lee County, Alabama Class B #18033

Possible stalking of couple parked at power line cut outside Opelika

The witness and his wife sat on his truck tailgate at a power-line clearing late at night when they heard snorting, brush breaking, and a loud growl/grunt moving up a steep hill toward them. The witness saw a large shadow moving on the slope in moonlight, heard breathing and stomping, and smelled a musky sour odor. After revving the truck engine the sounds crashed rapidly downhill, and the pair left, seeing deer run across the road as they drove out.

February 2000 Conecuh County, Alabama Class A #4743

Nighttime sighting by two teens in southern Conecuh County

Two companions parked a motorcycle on a dirt road late at night and walked toward a nearby residence when they heard loud heavy footsteps and brush crashing approaching from a swampy area. They ran back to the motorcycle and fled as the sounds and heavy breathing closed in. As they drove away, one rider looked back and saw a very large, wide, dark hairy figure leap onto the road, land on all fours, then stand erect and grunt. The figure was silhouetted in bright moonlight, preventing detail of face or hands, and was estimated at about seven feet tall.

Sasquatch sighting near Huntsville, Alabama

Two friends sat in a parked car at night on a power-line trail waiting for others. The witness saw a large silhouette block the moonlit trail beside a low-hanging limb, then take a couple steps across. Only two thick legs were visible, estimated seven feet tall with a very deep chest, and it struck the limb with an audible crack. Both occupants fled in the car and met their friends coming up.
