Sasquatch sighting near Allen, New York

The witness and the same young relative were carrying camping gear near a hayfield at sunset and noticed a dark figure deep in the field. Through weak binoculars it looked broad-shouldered and massive, sitting or crouching with its rear low, and it turned to show head and shoulders and walked with a swaying stagger. They went inside to get adults, and when the adults came out it was gone.

Sasquatch sighting

The witness went alone at night to a familiar research area and got five heat hits in trees across the field. The heat sources dropped from the trees and moved single-file toward her along the wood line. She then heard a deer screaming as if killed, experienced a blackout and an urge to leave, and later found thermal recordings appearing to show multiple upright figures.

Cryptid sighting in Alaska

The witness was on a multi-day hunting trip on a mountain ridge above the treeline, using binoculars and a scoped rifle to look for bears. From 80 to 100 yards away the witness observed a large gray short-haired cat-like animal with prominent upright ears crouched on a rock, moving its head like a predator. The animal sensed the witness, moved its ears, then crept backward and disappeared. The witness chose not to shoot because the animal could not be identified.

The guest lagged behind a filming group on a logging road to create distance and scanned with a thermal camera when he heard an indistinct whisper close to his ear and felt sudden intense fear. He rejoined the group and sat by the campfire feeling threatened until a loud boom was heard, after which the fear lifted and he went to sleep.
