00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,480
Hello and welcome to the program
UFO Warning. 

2
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,840
In this episode we're talking 
about a Mississippi Bigfoot 

3
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:12,600
report. 
That's correct, the Mississippi 

4
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,160
Bigfoot report. 
This comes to us from our 

5
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:19,080
friends over at 
bigfootresearchorganization.net.

6
00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:22,160
That's bfro.net. 
Lots of great sightings and 

7
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,640
reports over there. 
This first one says date on this

8
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:31,760
is 2021 and 22 December was the 
season on it. 

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:37,520
The date it was reported was 
January 7th, 2022 in Lauderdale 

10
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:41,800
County, Mississippi. 
Location Details Take York Rd. 

11
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:47,160
to Oxford Road, turn right and 
go about two miles to 4891 

12
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,120
Roxford Rd. 
Activity has been observed on 

13
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:56,160
both sides of the road across 
approximately 80 acres and then 

14
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,120
it gets GPS coordinates. 
Tells the nearest town is larded

15
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:00,880
on. 
Mississippi Nearest Rd. 

16
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,560
Oxford Rd. 
Observed for two years there was

17
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,720
no sound or activity, but now it
seems to be back. 

18
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,240
There may be as many as four or 
more individuals involved. 

19
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,040
Myself and two of my neighbors 
have heard unusual sounds. 

20
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,760
The first time I heard it near 
my shot house and all the 

21
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,240
animals became eerily quiet. 
Now we hear activity on both 

22
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,640
sides of the road, wood knocks 
during the day and howling at 

23
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,280
night. 
Last night around 12:30 AM there

24
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,040
was significant activity. 
This has been happening for the 

25
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,160
past couple of weeks. 
The dogs want nothing to do with

26
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,520
it. 
There are two distinct sounds 

27
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,960
they make. 
We're just looking for answers. 

28
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,320
The sounds resemble wolves but 
are distinctly different. 

29
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,560
I avoid hunting before daylight 
and return home before dark. 

30
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,240
When we share this with others, 
they laugh and call us crazy 

31
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,040
until they hear it for 
themselves. 

32
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,600
Wow, that sounds pretty spooky 
to me. 

33
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,960
Also notice it says activity is 
most frequent during the deer 

34
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,800
season, but we have occasionally
heard it during the summer just 

35
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,280
before the activity seemed to 
stop. 

36
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,840
For two years, under other 
witnesses, my neighbors and I 

37
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,200
have heard the sounds while 
walking our dogs, standing on 

38
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,160
our back porches or going about 
normal activities. 

39
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,240
I first heard it this time while
deer hunting. 

40
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,440
Then it says under other stories
the activity had been absent for

41
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,920
two years. 
I contacted the local BFRO 

42
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,280
organization, but they never 
responded. 

43
00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:33,840
The sounds occurred during the 
day and night at various hours. 

44
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,280
There have been wood knocks 
during the day and howling after

45
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,560
dark. 
The weather has been clear and 

46
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,760
cold, though the knocks began 
when it was warmer and our 

47
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,960
environment says the area 
features ample water, mixed 

48
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,760
trees, hills, hollows and some 
open land. 

49
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,760
There is a corn feeder for deer 
and a property has abundant 

50
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,160
wildlife. 
Well, isn't that neat? 

51
00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:00,280
That's back to 2019. 
Here's one from Panola County, 

52
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,680
Mississippi says from State 
Highway 51 take Eureka Rd. to 

53
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:09,040
Crouch Rd. then to Pitman Rd. 
The property is the 1st house on

54
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,080
the left about halfway down 
Pitman Rd. nearest town 

55
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,960
Batesville. 
Nearest Rd. 

56
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,600
Pitman Rd. 
After hearing strange sounds in 

57
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,200
the woods behind my house, I 
discovered a small oak tree 

58
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,880
snapped like a toothpick about 8
feet above the ground. 

59
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,640
This was behind the old barn on 
my property. 

60
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,400
I had been in the same area the 
day before and the tree was 

61
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,280
perfectly intact. 
If it had been snapped like that

62
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:37,360
earlier, I would have noticed. 
My son had accompanied me the 

63
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,720
first day while we were looking 
for some old items stored in the

64
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,360
barn. 
When I went back alone the 

65
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,120
following day to continue the 
search, I noticed the snap tree.

66
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,480
I have pictures and audio 
recordings documenting these 

67
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,200
occurrences. 
Wow, these things are just 

68
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,120
incredibly strong. 
On the night between these two 

69
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,160
days, I was home alone working 
on some crafts. 

70
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,840
The house was very quiet. 
I don't keep the TV on late at 

71
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,760
night because my dad taught me 
to listen for outdoor sounds, 

72
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,000
especially since we've always 
lived in a rural area. 

73
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,880
This window AC unit next to my 
chair makes it easy to hear 

74
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,200
outside sounds. 
And that night I heard strange 

75
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,160
knocks. 
At the time I didn't think much 

76
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:25,360
of it, but when I found the snap
tree the next day, it gave me 

77
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,080
chills. 
Wow. 

78
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,280
My son, who was attending Ole 
Miss of the time, was with me 

79
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:32,480
the first day. 
He had come over to look for 

80
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,360
some old pictures stored in the 
barn. 

81
00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:36,760
We didn't notice anything 
unusual. 

82
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,920
Then the Snap Tree appeared 
after I returned alone the next 

83
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,200
day. 
Since this incident, I've 

84
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,200
occasionally heard knocks, 
screams and what sounds like 

85
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,560
chatter from the woods. 
Says the events primarily 

86
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,360
occurred at night. 
It was unseasonably warm for 

87
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,640
January and the weather was 
clear. 

88
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,000
The Snap Tree is located behind 
my dad's old barn. 

89
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,400
A deep crack runs to the back of
the property, about 600 yards 

90
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,920
from the barn. 
The area surrounded by woods and

91
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:08,320
rural terrain sounds like a 
pretty ideal spot for Bigfoot. 

92
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,360
Maybe this one here says 2013 
winner. 

93
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,440
The date on this is February 
16th to Shamingo County, 

94
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,040
Mississippi. 
Location details removed to 

95
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,760
protect the privacy of the 
witness. 

96
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,520
Nearest town Burnsville, 
Mississippi. 

97
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,720
Nearest Rd. 
Removed to protect the privacy 

98
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,320
of the witness. 
Observed last night while 

99
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,960
walking our dogs, I heard AI 
heard a sound similar to what 

100
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,640
investigators on Finding Bigfoot
make when calling to a Bigfoot. 

101
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,000
The sounds seem to come from 
about a mile away near the 

102
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,040
Tebigi Waterway. 
We were on the West side of the 

103
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,440
waterway in a rural area and are
accustomed to hearing a variety 

104
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,560
of animal noises, but I had 
never heard anything like this 

105
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,440
before. 
We frequently hear coyotes in 

106
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,520
this area, and while it's 
possible this could have been a 

107
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,840
coyote, the sound struck me as 
very similar to the calls made 

108
00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:08,840
by investigators on TV. 
I heard the sound twice during 

109
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:12,360
my walk, which typically takes 
about 15 minutes. 

110
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,080
Since I walked the dogs one at a
time. 

111
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,960
When I came inside, I even 
mentioned the sound to my 

112
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,800
husband. 
Please note that I did not see 

113
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,520
anything. 
I only heard a sound that was 

114
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:27,240
unfamiliar and unlike anything 
I'm used to hearing out here. 

115
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,360
Wow. 
Time and conditions. 

116
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,760
The sounds occur between 9:00 PM
and 9:30 PM. 

117
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,520
It was dark but the skies were 
clear. 

118
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,720
I was looking at the stars while
walking the dogs. 

119
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,200
Pretty cool. 
Follow up investigation says I 

120
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,560
spoke with the witness for 
approximately 45 minutes about 

121
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,720
her experience and she struck me
as a very sincere and credible 

122
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,800
individual. 
I would not normally publish a 

123
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,080
report like this due to the lack
of direct evidence. 

124
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,680
However, since there have been 
reported sightings and 

125
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:57,720
encounters in this county, I'm 
assuring this in the hope that 

126
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,960
others may come forward with 
similar accounts. 

127
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,800
During our conversation, the 
witness stated that the sound 

128
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,360
was unlike anything she had ever
heard in Mississippi. 

129
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,240
While she acknowledged the 
possibility that it could have 

130
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,760
been a coyote, she emphasized 
that it did not resemble any 

131
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,600
coyote sound she had previously 
heard. 

132
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,160
She estimated the scream lasts 
approximately 8 to 10 seconds. 

133
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,480
The witness also mentioned 
hearing a wood knock later that 

134
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,360
same night, but she had already 
submitted her report by that 

135
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,480
time and wasn't able to include 
it. 

136
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,520
She shared this detail during 
our phone conversation. 

137
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,240
Pretty neat. 
Let's take a look at some more 

138
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,800
here. 
This one says 1973 season Winter

139
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:41,280
state, Mississippi County. 
It's spelled AM ITE so I don't 

140
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,040
know if it's a Mike County or 
how you say it. 

141
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,680
A Mike County, I'll call it. 
All encounters occurred in a 

142
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,480
Mike County, Mississippi in a 
wooded area about one mile South

143
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,920
of Hwy. 23. 
This area, known as the Fast 

144
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,400
Fort Community, is about 15 
miles West of McComb, Ms. 

145
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:02,080
Unfortunately, I have no video 
or audio evidence, only personal

146
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,000
observation. 
The first encounter did not 

147
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000
involve a sighting. 
As a young boy, I was on the 

148
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,240
front porch with my mother, 
father, uncle and grandfather. 

149
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:17,400
Around 9:00 PM, we all heard a 
sound resembling a shrill human 

150
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,640
scream. 
Until that night, I didn't 

151
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,200
understand what it meant to have
your hair stand on in a somewhat

152
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,760
large dog. 
We kept outside, barked, cried, 

153
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,000
and ran away in apparent terror.
The only thing we found the next

154
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,880
day was a single partial 
footprint. 

155
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,440
The second encounter occurred 
while my cousins and I were 

156
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,120
fishing at a pond on our 
grandfather's property. 

157
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,320
We noticed a very strong odor. 
We assumed it was a skunk. 

158
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,200
Shortly after, we heard a sound 
like a scream, followed by a few

159
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,280
grunts and then silence. 
Before the next encounter. 

160
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,200
Some unusual incidents deserved 
mentioning. 

161
00:08:52,680 --> 00:08:55,840
Livestock, primarily pigs, were 
found dead with their livers and

162
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,080
hearts removed. 
Though I never witnessed this 

163
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:02,280
myself, only heard the stories. 
On at least two occasions. 

164
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,280
I saw all the fruit eaten off 
trees on the property. 

165
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,600
The fruit was completely removed
from the trees and the pits were

166
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,760
scattered on the ground below. 
We joked about the bellyache 

167
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,720
something must have had after 
eating an entire tree of green 

168
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,000
pears. 
Man that's amazing, never heard 

169
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,280
that before. 
I heard they like apples, but 

170
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,520
this is cool. 
Later, as a teenager, I was 

171
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,080
alone in the woods and felt a 
distinct sense of being watched.

172
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,400
I crossed a barbed wire fence 
near the road, went into the 

173
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,040
woods and returned. 
About 20 to 30 minutes later, I 

174
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,120
discovered the fence had been 
partially knocked down. 

175
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,600
Upon closer inspection, I 
noticed several large 

176
00:09:42,680 --> 00:09:45,400
footprints. 
The prints appeared human except

177
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,640
for their size. 
At the time, I wore a size 12 D 

178
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,800
boot, but these prints were two 
to three inches longer and about

179
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,240
two inches wider than my boot. 
The tracks led to the road and 

180
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,360
then back into the woods. 
About a year later, I was with a

181
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,880
friend from New Orleans, LA, who
knew nothing about the previous 

182
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,000
encounters. 
While we were near a Creek 

183
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,160
bottom, he suddenly froze and 
asked what was watching us. 

184
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:13,320
Standing near him, I saw what I 
initially thought was a bear 

185
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,440
about 25 yards away in a 
squatting position. 

186
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,520
Then it stood upright. 
It was 7 to each. 

187
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:25,080
It was 7 to 8 feet tall, covered
in very dark brown hair except 

188
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,720
for its face. 
Unlike a bear, it stood upright 

189
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,520
like a man. 
As we left the area, the 

190
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,920
creature followed us to the edge
of the wood line. 

191
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,760
It walked with the long stride 
and its arms swung as it moved. 

192
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,960
The only sound it made was a 
whistling noise. 

193
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,960
My last encounter occurred while
I was in the army. 

194
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,480
A Co worker and I went to the 
old house to do some shooting 

195
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,800
late that night. 
While sitting outside we saw a 

196
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:56,200
large man shaped creature walk 
across the road about 125 yards 

197
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,000
away. 
It entered the woods and 

198
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,720
disappeared. 
Didn't seem to notice this well.

199
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,920
Also notice small trees were 
found knocked down in the woods,

200
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,320
apparently laid across one 
another. 

201
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,400
Other witnesses. 
In all cases we were either at 

202
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,920
the house or nearby in the 
woods, typically hunting or 

203
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,400
fishing. 
Other stories. 

204
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,240
I heard a news story about 
footprints cast taken near 

205
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,840
Macomb at Pike County, just a 
few miles away. 

206
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,120
The individual interviewed also 
had an audio recording of the 

207
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,840
creature. 
That sounds pretty wild. 

208
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,000
Time and conditions. 
The first incident, 1973 around 

209
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,000
9:00 PM. 
Moderately cool weather. 

210
00:11:34,560 --> 00:11:38,200
Second incident 1975 late 
summer, early fall around 4:00 

211
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,520
PM partly cloudy and warm. 
Fruit tree incident 1975, same 

212
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,560
time frame as above and 
footprint incident. 197778 Fall 

213
00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:52,080
winter late afternoon clear and 
cool weather sighting 1978 or 79

214
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,200
Fall Winter late morning near 
noon. 

215
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,200
Clear and cool weather and a 
final sighting in 1988 Winter 

216
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,080
around 10:00 PM. 
Quite cool with light fogging 

217
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,040
area. 
The Environment The area is 

218
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,240
rural and wooded with nearby 
farms, creeks and low lying 

219
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,240
swampy areas. 
The terrain consists of low 

220
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,280
rolling hills. 
The nearest name to Creek is 

221
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:17,560
Hominy Creek and the East Fork 
of the Amite River is within a 

222
00:12:17,560 --> 00:12:20,000
few miles. 
Pretty neat stuff. 

223
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,680
Report submitted by witness. 
OK, so I'll go ahead and move on

224
00:12:24,680 --> 00:12:27,960
to this next one. 
This is submitted by witness BB 

225
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,880
on Thursday November 18th, 1999.
Creatures see my witness the 

226
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:37,320
year it occurred 1950 during the
summer it says Adela County, 

227
00:12:37,680 --> 00:12:41,720
Mississippi observed When I was 
a child I heard my grandfather, 

228
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,080
a man who quit school at 16, 
tells stories about something 

229
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,440
that lived in the Burns re 
break. 

230
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,560
Now they say this is a Reed 
break. 

231
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:52,880
I guess where the swampy area 
kind of meets a drier area, 

232
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:57,320
maybe a swampy area owned by a 
Mr. Homer Burns. 

233
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:02,720
The stories he shared dated back
to World War One and included 

234
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,240
accounts from both my 
grandfather and my father. 

235
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,840
They never got a good look at 
the creature. 

236
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,840
My father always attributed the 
activity to bootleggers, but my 

237
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,960
grandfather believed it was 
something else entirely. 

238
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,880
According to him, whatever it 
was, it frightened lumbermen out

239
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:22,080
of the woods and beat Panther 
hounds so severely that the dogs

240
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:26,200
didn't return home for days. 
As a child, I listened to the 

241
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,600
older generation describe the 
creature, but it wasn't until I 

242
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,800
grew older that I realized your 
accounts sounded remarkably like

243
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,880
descriptions of a Sasquatch. 
I've also heard about similar 

244
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,960
creatures in Louisiana, and 
given the many primitive 

245
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,960
waterways that cross between the
two states, it wouldn't surprise

246
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,440
me if the sightings were 
connected locally. 

247
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,560
The creature was called the 
Burns Booger. 

248
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,040
It was. 
It has been absent from the area

249
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,760
since the 1960s, around the same
time that logging companies 

250
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,400
began using advanced technology.
This coincided with the last 

251
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,560
known Panther sightings in Allen
County. 

252
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,600
My great grandfather and another
man were logging in the area 

253
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,680
after World War One was 
something terrified them so much

254
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,560
that they abandoned the job and 
refused to return. 

255
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,760
My grandfather and father, along
with some Coon hunters, claimed 

256
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,000
to have seen the creature 
standing near a dying fire they 

257
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,600
had built. 
They described it as man like, 

258
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,560
yet not fully human, though my 
memory or their exact 

259
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,880
description is hazy. 
My father's coonhounds, which 

260
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,320
were known for their bravery 
even against Panthers, 

261
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,440
encountered something one night 
that set them howling in terror.

262
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,040
Whatever it was, it attacked the
dogs, leaving them yelping in 

263
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,560
pain. 
By the time my grandfather and 

264
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,160
father reached them, the 
incident was over. 

265
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,680
The dogs didn't return home for 
days. 

266
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,600
The older generation unanimously
believed there was something 

267
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,600
unusual in those woods, but they
are all gone now. 

268
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,240
No one has reported hearing from
the Burns booger for many years.

269
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,880
I haven't come across any recent
stories either. 

270
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,040
Wow, that's something else and 
it just matches things living 

271
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,560
down the swamps. 
My father is the only one still 

272
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,120
alive. 
Remains convinced it was the 

273
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,440
work of bootleggers though. 
No evidence of a still was ever 

274
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,120
found in those woods. 
Environment says Atlanta County 

275
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:14,360
features red clay hills, thick 
pine forest and swampy regions. 

276
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,960
The Yakka Nuni River spelling 
may be incorrect, says runs 

277
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,960
through the area and remains 
wild and marshy. 

278
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,600
The Burns Re Break was heavily 
logged in later years, but at 

279
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,480
the time of these sightings it 
was dense with Pines and had a 

280
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,240
marshy stream running through 
it. 

281
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:37,120
It says re break is a local term
for Reed breaks. 

282
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,360
The area is very hilly and was 
sparsely populated at the time. 

283
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,400
Even today it remains thinly 
settled compared to less wooded 

284
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,440
regions. 
Man that is really something. 

285
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,680
You just wonder how much of 
these we've lost with the 

286
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,840
habitat. 
This one here is from 1998. 

287
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:59,520
It says winter January 
Mississippi Blvd. 

288
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,200
County. 
The sighting occurred in the 

289
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,800
southern part of Blvd. 
County heading north towards 

290
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,200
Shaw Says nearest town Shaw 
nearest Rd. 

291
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:11,680
Hwy. 61. 
In January 1998, I saw a large 

292
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,240
light colored upright creature 
about 10 miles South of my home 

293
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:16,720
in Blvd. 
County. 

294
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,280
I was driving on Hwy. 61 in 
Southern Blvd. 

295
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,320
County at approximately 1:15 AM 
when I noticed a large figure 

296
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,160
crossing the road about 200 
yards ahead of me. 

297
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:31,280
It moved from left to right when
I reached the spot where it had 

298
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,320
stopped in a ditch. 
The creature did not look at me 

299
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,520
but stared straight ahead. 
It stood around 7 1/2 to 8 feet 

300
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,640
tall and appeared to weigh 
approximately 450 to 500 lbs. 

301
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,360
It says the sighting took place 
at around 1:15 AM on a cloudy 

302
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,240
night. 
The only limitations came from 

303
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,840
my car's headlight. 
The area was an isolated stretch

304
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,360
of highway and then under the 
follow up investigation, it says

305
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,880
by Tony Garage. 
I spoke with the witness by 

306
00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:59,920
phone. 
The total duration of the 

307
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:03,560
sighting was about 15 seconds 
from the moment he saw the 

308
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:07,280
creature begin crossing the road
to the point where he passed it.

309
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,200
He slowed the car but did not 
stop. 

310
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,040
The creature's gait was 
described as smooth and fluid, 

311
00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:17,440
with its arms swinging like 
those of a human. 

312
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,040
Its arms appeared to reach past 
its knees. 

313
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,960
The head was cone shaped with no
visible neck or ears. 

314
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,600
Its build was described as 
muscular, massive, but not fat. 

315
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:33,120
The hair was noted as a dirty 
white and not particularly long.

316
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,200
The witness did not observe any 
eye shine, nor was he aware if 

317
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,120
the creature ever looked toward 
his oncoming car when the 

318
00:17:40,120 --> 00:17:43,400
creature stood in the ditch 
facing away from the road, kept 

319
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,080
his arms at its sides and showed
no significant movement during 

320
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,840
that time. 
And then the investigator says 

321
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:51,760
he's a Community College biology
professor. 

322
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,400
Pretty neat. 
Here's another one here. 

323
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,280
This is from says summer 2000, 
June 15th actually. 

324
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:03,240
State Clark, Mississippi. 
Clark County location details. 

325
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:06,160
The incident occurred on 
Interstate 59 between Enterprise

326
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:07,920
and Meridian. 
Wow. 

327
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,200
On an Interstate nearest town, 
Enterprise Meridian nearest Rd. 

328
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:18,320
Interstate 59 observed on a 
rainy night at around 3 AMI saw 

329
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,120
a large hairy creature running 
on two feet toward us. 

330
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,520
I was driving home from Houston,
TX after a job interview 

331
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,560
accompanied by my mom. 
We've been driving all night and

332
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,920
we approached our destination. 
With about 20 miles left to 

333
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,560
Meridian it began to rain. 
I was driving at around 55 mile 

334
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,720
per hour due to the weather 
conditions when I noticed a 

335
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,600
large figure to the left of our 
Jeep running tortoise. 

336
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,200
I turned to my mom and asked if 
she had seen it too and she 

337
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,040
confirmed that she had. 
When I asked her to describe 

338
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,880
what she saw, she said it looked
like a large hairy man or 

339
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,560
something similar. 
After discussing it, we both 

340
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,120
concluded it must have been a 
Bigfoot. 

341
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,520
I hunt often and have never 
encountered anything like this 

342
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,440
in my life. 
The creature appeared to be 

343
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,480
about 8 feet tall and the 
experience terrified us. 

344
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,560
I truly believe what we 
witnessed that night was a 

345
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,280
Bigfoot. 
The incident occurred at 

346
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,200
approximately 3:00 AM. 
It was raining heavily at the 

347
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,680
time. 
Then it goes on here it says 

348
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,400
follow up investigation report 
by BFR investigator John C 

349
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,120
Calendar. 
I spoke with the witness to gain

350
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:21,760
additional details. 
The sighting occurred in an open

351
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:26,440
area of Interstate 5920 with 
with a medium and not many 

352
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,440
trees. 
The area also featured rolling 

353
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,680
hills. 
It was raining heavily with a 

354
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:36,120
hard, steady downpour rather 
than a thunderstorm related 

355
00:19:36,120 --> 00:19:39,080
precipitation. 
The witness did not notice any 

356
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,360
lighting before or after the 
encounter. 

357
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,080
The creature was completely 
covered in brown hair, 

358
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,280
approximately 3 to 4 inches 
long. 

359
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,880
The hair had a shiny appearance,
likely due to being wet. 

360
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,960
The animal appeared ape like, 
but the witness cannot discern 

361
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,200
any facial features, describing 
it as if it is. 

362
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,240
If the animal didn't have a 
face, he emphasized that he 

363
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,400
could not see its eyes or other 
details. 

364
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,680
The entire encounter lasted only
three to five seconds, with the 

365
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,480
creature coming as close as 3 
feet to the car. 

366
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,240
Wow. 
The witness had to slow down and

367
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,200
swerve to the right to avoid 
hitting it. 

368
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,360
The animal crossed from the West
side of the Interstate 5920 

369
00:20:17,360 --> 00:20:20,280
toward the east. 
Although the witness initially 

370
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,920
reported it as running toward 
us, he clarified during our 

371
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,600
conversation that the animal 
seemed to be walking rather than

372
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,840
running. 
He believed it did not notice 

373
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,280
the Jeep until just before the 
near collision. 

374
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,600
Despite the close call, the 
animal continued crossing the 

375
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,680
road without stopping or slowing
down. 

376
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,920
I am familiar with the area 
where the incident occurred. 

377
00:20:41,360 --> 00:20:44,760
It is relatively remote with 
thick pine forest, some clear 

378
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,840
cut areas, and occasional 
fields. 

379
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,400
The rolling hills in the area 
make it plausible for an animal 

380
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:54,240
to cross the road without being 
seen until just before an 

381
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,760
encounter, particularly during 
heavy rain as described by the 

382
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,000
witness. 
It is worth noting that the two 

383
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,080
other reported sightings have 
occurred in neighboring 

384
00:21:04,120 --> 00:21:07,960
Lauderdale County. 
Wow, that is so cool. 

385
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,520
You know, you wonder if that's 
not how we're going to be able 

386
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,760
to actually prove these things 
exist. 

387
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,720
And one's going to get hit by a 
big truck or something. 

388
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,520
Sometimes when mountain lions, 
Cougars, Panthers, what are you 

389
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,280
going to call them, move into a 
certain area, people will say, 

390
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,800
well, those animals don't exist 
here. 

391
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,360
And then one gets hit by a car. 
And then it's like, oh, I guess 

392
00:21:28,360 --> 00:21:31,800
we do have these around at 
least, at least walking through.

393
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,720
And that could happen with 
Bigfoot, I'm afraid, is that one

394
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,320
of these days he seems to be 
killed on the highway. 

395
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,360
And maybe that's how we'll 
finally find out the truth. 

396
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,000
Very, very spooky situation. 
We'll do a couple more here and 

397
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,040
we'll wrap this up. 
So we'll finish up these last 

398
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,320
two. 
This happened and says 78 or 79.

399
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:54,240
Winter November 28th State

County Location Details off of 
Hwy. 33 turn on to Bunkley Rd. 

401
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:03,760
travel approximately 5 miles 
then turn on road one O 1A 

402

National Forest nearest town 

403
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,520
Knoxville Nearest Rd. 
Bunkley Rd. 

404
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,520
Observed First I must say that 
this creature truly exists 

405
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,040
without a doubt. 
I have not shared this with many

406
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,120
people because I feel it would 
be futile to understand. 

407
00:22:20,120 --> 00:22:22,240
One must experience an encounter
personally. 

408
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,640
It was November 28th, 1978 or 
79. 

409
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,360
Deer season had opened a week or
so earlier and I was eager to 

410
00:22:29,360 --> 00:22:31,520
hunt. 
Since I wasn't old enough to 

411
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,080
drive, I jumped at the chance to
go with my two older brothers 

412
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,360
friends. 
We arrived in Knoxville off 

413
00:22:37,360 --> 00:22:39,200
Bunkley Rd. well before 
daylight. 

414
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,640
The hike to our individual 
stands was about 1 to 1 1/2 

415
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,040
miles. 
One of the men left us as we 

416
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,880
passed his stand and the other 
continued with me until we 

417
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,520
reached his. 
He directed me to a Creek bottom

418
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,240
about 300 yards away, mentioning
some good buck sign he'd found 

419
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,400
there. 
It was dark when I crossed a 

420
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,160
small field to take a stand in 
the far timber. 

421
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,520
Halfway across the field, I had 
an airy feeling of being 

422
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,200
watched. 
I stopped, scanned the tree line

423
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,480
with my flashlight, but saw 
nothing. 

424
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,320
I continued another 100 yards 
into the woods and found a large

425
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,520
tree to use as a backrest, 
setting in to wait for daylight.

426
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,720
Around 9, AMI spotted a deer 
standing on a small Knoll about 

427
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:25,160
75 to 80 yards away, motionless 
and staring in my direction. 

428
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,840
I didn't move, but the deer 
turned abruptly and bolted into 

429
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,160
a thicket away from me. 
The wind was in my face, so I 

430
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,320
knew it had to smell me, and I 
hadn't moved a muscle. 

431
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,240
As I tried to figure out what 
startled the deer, I began 

432
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,120
hearing heavy breathing behind 
me. 

433
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,520
It wasn't close at first, but 
grew louder and louder. 

434
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,880
Glancing over my left shoulder, 
I saw my shadow, the tree's 

435
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,240
shadow, and the shadow of a 
large upright creature directly 

436
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,040
behind me. 
Startled, I jumped up and 

437
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,520
sidestepped away from the tree. 
Standing up five feet away was a

438
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,240
creature staring at me. 
It was about 7 feet tall, 

439
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:06,280
covered in medium length pine 
straw colored hair except for 

440
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,520
its hairless face. 
Its arms hung down to its knees 

441
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,280
and its eyes were sunken and 
coal black. 

442
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,920
We made eye contact for a couple
of seconds before I turned and 

443
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:20,040
fled, leaving my gun behind. 
I ran while yelling at the top 

444
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,040
of my lungs. 
One of the men I was with heard 

445
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,680
my screams and met me in the 
field as I exited the woods. 

446
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,240
When I told him what happened, 
he called the other men and we 

447
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,160
returned to retrieve my gun. 
They laughed at me until we 

448
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,920
reached the tree where my gun 
lay. 

449
00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:37,640
There in the leaves were large 
tracks. 

450
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:42,040
The footprints had three toes 
and measured about 14 inches 

451
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,320
long and four and four to five 
inches wide. 

452
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,680
We followed the tracks for about
75 yards, noting the direction 

453
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,600
it had travelled. 
The trail led to a Creek where 

454
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,280
the tracks dropped off the bank.
In the sand below, we could 

455
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,360
clearly see where the creature 
had slid down the slope. 

456
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,560
At that point, we decided to 
leave immediately. 

457
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,720
To this day, I have never 
returned to that particular 

458
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,720
area. 
The men with me never mentioned 

459
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,800
the incident to anyone to my 
knowledge. 

460
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,760
I've seen many bears and other 
wildlife in my time, but I 

461
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,920
assure you at 5 feet away there 
was no mistaking what I saw. 

462
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,680
Oh man, that would just be 
amazing, especially as a kid. 

463
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,360
Also notice it says there was no
foul smell associated with the 

464
00:25:26,360 --> 00:25:28,160
creature. 
Strangely, I didn't hear any 

465
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,120
noise from the leaves as it 
approached. 

466
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,480
The heavy, irregular breathing 
still stands out vividly in my 

467
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,240
mind. 
I get goosebumps every time I 

468
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,080
think about it. 
Other witnesses. 

469
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,040
Two other men were present, but 
I prefer not to reveal their 

470
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,520
names. 
The three of us were deer 

471
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,080
hunting. 
Other stories. 

472
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,400
Yes, I've heard of two teenagers
hunting and Anna's Bottom near 

473
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,960
the Natchez. 
They reportedly saw a large dark

474
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,600
colored creature about 400 yards
away across the soybean field. 

475
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,360
They estimated it to be 8 to 9 
feet tall. 

476
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,960
The creature turned and 
disappeared into the far tree 

477
00:25:59,960 --> 00:26:02,720
line. 
Man, it's big time and 

478
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,760
conditions. 
Around 9:00 AM it was clear cold

479
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,680
morning environment. 
The area included a small field 

480
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,480
with material, hardwood trees, 
an old dried up pond about 3 

481
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,440
about two feet deep and 20 yards
wide, and a sandy flowing Creek 

482
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,600
cutting through the area. 
It was primarily a large Creek 

483
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,880
bottom and then follow up 
investigation says. 

484
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,520
I spoke with the witness for 
follow up investigators John G 

485
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,480
Calendar. 
I spoke with the witness for 

486
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,080
about an hour, and although he 
couldn't recall whether the 

487
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,760
encounter took place in 78 or 
79, he vividly remembered the 

488
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,160
events. 
Just before spotting the deer, 

489
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,880
the woods became unnaturally 
quiet, with no sounds from 

490
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,000
squirrels, birds or other 
wildlife. 

491
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,320
The deer exhibited unusual 
behavior, taking 3 or 4 steps 

492
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,920
backward, spinning and bolting. 
Immediately after, the witness 

493
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:53,400
heard raspy, coarse breathing. 
The creature stood erect with 

494
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,480
slightly forward leaning 
shoulders and no visible neck. 

495
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,840
Its weight was estimated at six 
to seven, 100 lbs. 

496
00:27:00,360 --> 00:27:03,520
The animal wasn't aggressive but
appeared curious. 

497
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,840
The witness described that 
Harris coarse and four to five 

498
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,400
inches long, darker near the 
roots and lighter at the ends. 

499
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,160
His face was hairless except for
a mustache. 

500
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,600
The creature's pupils were coal 
black with no visible whites. 

501
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,400
His nose was broad and slightly 
upturned. 

502
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,000
Despite the fear, the witness 
believed the creature was simply

503
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,520
observing him out of curiosity. 
The tracks resembled human 

504
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,800
footprints but had only three 
toes. 

505
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,160
The center narrowed while the 
ends widened. 

506
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,880
Has something 1970? 
That is really cool. 

507
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:38,560
OK, we'll look at this last one 
here. 

508
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,320
This is 1997. 
It says fall. 

509
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:44,640
Mississippi, George County, 
nearest town Buzzard Roost, Hwy.

510
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,360
26. 
That's quite a name for a town 

511
00:27:47,360 --> 00:27:49,880
Buzzard Roost. 
My father and I were driving 

512
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,480
around at night, as we often 
did, looking for deer. 

513
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,200
He was driving. 
I spotted glowing gold eyes to 

514
00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:00,120
the left side of the road about 
80 yards ahead and 10 yards off 

515
00:28:00,120 --> 00:28:02,760
the road. 
The creature was standing with 

516
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,760
its back to the barbed wire 
fence and a two to three foot 

517
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,640
tall sage grass. 
As we approached, my brother 

518
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:14,120
slowed the truck slightly and 
turned to get a better view of 

519
00:28:14,120 --> 00:28:16,960
whatever it was. 
The creature was about 6 feet 

520
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,640
tall with long brown hair on its
head that extended down its 

521
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,200
shoulders. 
Its face was dark and we 

522
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,760
couldn't make out its features. 
It was swaying from side to side

523
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,840
as we passed by slowly. 
I hollered for my brother to 

524
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,520
stop but he kept driving. 
Usually my brother stops 

525
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,240
whenever a good buck is spotted,
but this time he wouldn't go 

526
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,920
back either. 
We're both hunters and familiar 

527
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,440
with all the wildlife in our 
area. 

528
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,920
This was not a bear. 
I also know of 2 hunters who 

529
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,440
were driven out of the woods in 
this area by something that 

530
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,280
smelled awful and made noises 
that gave them the creeps. 

531
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,720
That happened a couple years 
before this sighting. 

532
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,280
Both of those men are locals and
avid hunters like us. 

533
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:57,720
Other witnesses, myself and my 
brother. 

534
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,240
And then it says other stories. 
I've heard of it two experienced

535
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,720
hunters being scared out of the 
woods in an area by something 

536
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,760
with a terrible smell and 
unnerving noises. 

537
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,880
I've also heard a story about a 
old woman who claimed she was 

538
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:12,600
feeding a wild man behind her 
home in the same area. 

539
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,800
Sounds crazy, but that's what 
was said. 

540
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,400
Time and conditions Around 11:00
PM, the weather was calm. 

541
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,800
The sighting occurred South of 
the Leaf River Management Area 

542
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,800
near the border of pine forest 
and swamp. 

543
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,880
This area is at the edge of the 
forest at public land and 

544
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,840
private property. 
Follow up investigation says I 

545
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,760
spoke by phone with both the 
reporting witnesses and his 

546
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,120
brother. 
The witness described the 

547
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,760
creature was built as stout with
a rounded head and lacked a 

548
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,920
forward projecting muzzle. 
He mentioned that it's hair 

549
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:47,040
appeared rugged but not tangled.
Neither witness detected any 

550
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,680
associated odor, sounds or 
sounds during this encounter. 

551
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,800
That is something a very cool up
close and personal activity down

552
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,840
there in Mississippi. 
Until next time, this is UFO 

553
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,000
warning over now.
