OBSERVED: My mother and her sister were going to get the cows from the pasture to bring them to the barn. They had just gone through a shelter belt of trees into a clearing when they heard rustling like something moving in the trees. Thinking it was one of the cows they turned around and saw a very tall, hairy creature running away from them. It was standing completely upright running on two legs. Needless to say they ran the other direction.

Also some of the neighbouing farmers reported seeing large tracks on their farms that they could not identify around the same time.

OTHER WITNESSES: Yes there were two witnesses, my mother and her sister. They had just walked throught he belt of trees where the creature was.

ENVIRONMENT: Gently rolling hills, lots of tree belts and brush. Very sandy soil .
