Fall 2012 Avoca, Iowa County, Wisconsin Class B #43742

Property owner reports possible activty near Avoca

A few nights after hearing loud vocalizations at the farm, the witness rode an ATV down the driveway to close a gate. The headlights caught a very wide-set pair of yellowish-white eyes in the treeline about seven to eight feet off the ground, causing intense fear and a quick retreat after closing the gate. The next day the witness found no low branches and no accessible ground to check for tracks, estimating the eyes would have required an approximately eight-foot-tall standing figure.
