Follow-up investigation report:

The witness, TM, is a pharmacist and optometrist who lives in Winnipeg. He travels monthly to The Pas to see patients. TM is an experienced hunter and fisherman.

At first TM thought the animal he saw, which was bent over, might be a bear. When it straightened up and swung around to look at his passing car, he said he knew it was not a bear. It was a big creature, six to seven feet tall with massive arms and a heavy neck, and it had kind of a blonde mane and chest. When I asked what his general impression of the thing was, what it looked like to him, he said, “It looked like Hulk Hogan out in a field in a monkey suit.”

TM said that shortly after passing by the animal, after he’d had a moment to digest what his eyes had seen, he knew it had been a bigfoot. He commented that he wished he had stopped or turned around to look at the animal better, but said it took him a little while to process what he’d seen and get over the shock… by that time he was well down the road.
