Night, dark clear, road traffic was light. I was traveling west bound, headlight on bright.
Three creatures, two were adults and a young one. I saw them traveling from left to right, the adults were near the yellow line in the hwy, the smaller one was about three steps behind the large ones.
The two large one went right over the fence to my left with very little extra effort, like a large high stride. the smaller one, use the right hand on the fence post and jumped the fence.
I was about 5 car lengths away from the smaller one. NEAREST TOWN: Snow NEAREST ROAD: Hwy 62/412 OBSERVED: 12/4/2012 19:34 Marion County Arkansas US. 62/412 Near Snow Arkansas.

Follow-up investigation report by BFRO Investigator Carter Buschardt:
Spoke with witness twice via phone. Former military and quite precise in recollection. It was a matter of fact recounting of events. Everyone knows they are around these parts, just not spoken about in public. His feeling was that he saw a family unit. Male, female, and juvenile. The male, and lead creature, was a dirty brown color. The second or "female, less masculine" one was in the middle, and juvenile was last. Male was estimated to be no less than 6.5-7 ft. tall. Very bulky and super wide at shoulders. The second one was just smaller overall and he just felt it was "feminine" due to lack of bulk and overall size difference. Juvenile seemed to be 4-5 ft tall. They were "walking with purpose" as though they had a set destination in mind. They did not look back at him, nor hurry their gait just because he was there. The entire event was between 5-8 seconds. It was a 2 lane highway, at least 20 feet from shoulder to shoulder, and the male crossed the road easily in 4-5 steps. He went back and stepped it off at a later time and he had trouble coming close to that stride without maybe pulling a muscle. I have no reason to doubt this witness.
