00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,120
Hello and welcome to the program
UFO Warning. 

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,280
In this episode, we're looking 
at an Arkansas Bigfoot Roundup. 

3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:12,120
That's correct, an Arkansas 
Bigfoot roundup, and I found 

4
00:00:12,120 --> 00:00:17,600
these over at bfro.net. 
That's bfro.net, the Bigfoot 

5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:22,840
Field Researchers Organization. 
These guys do a fantastic job of

6
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,480
correlating these reports and 
posting them there online. 

7
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:32,280
This first one they tell us 
happened July 22nd 2018 in 

8
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,920
Arkansas and Newton County. 
Location details Hideout Hollow 

9
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:42,480
trailhead nearest town Compton. 
Now the witness says that they 

10
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:47,720
observed was my son's father and
I came over from Oklahoma to the

11
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,880
Buffalo National River area. 
I picked a waterfall from my 

12
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,760
waterfall guidebook that planned
that we plan to find. 

13
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,520
We chose Hideout Hollow. 
When we arrived at the parking 

14
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,120
area at the trailhead, he turned
off the car. 

15
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,720
Our windows were down because we
were both smoking cigarettes at 

16
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,240
that time. 
I heard a noise that sounded 

17
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,080
like a dog sniffing under a 
bathroom door. 

18
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,640
I whispered to him. 
Did you hear that? 

19
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,360
He replied that sounded like 
heavy machinery off in the 

20
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,480
distance. 
I let it be go because I was 

21
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,680
just grateful he acknowledged 
the sound. 

22
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,080
We started to head down the 
trail when I realized we had 

23
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,920
left our hiking sticks in the 
car so I ran back to get them 

24
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,960
myself. 
I felt slightly creeped out but 

25
00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:34,760
didn't worry too much because I 
could still see him the whole 

26
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,240
time. 
Once I got back to him we 

27
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,400
continued down the trail. 
We were just starting to round a

28
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,840
corner to the left when we heard
a rustling in the trees to our 

29
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,200
left. 
We both stopped and looked. 

30
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,280
We saw a huge figure running 
through the trees. 

31
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,320
At first I thought it was a man,
but then I realized it was 

32
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,480
completely covered in medium 
chocolate brown hair. 

33
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,400
I remember seeing his arms in 
front of it as if it were moving

34
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,040
branches away to protect his 
face and his hands were black. 

35
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,280
I whispered. 
What was that? 

36
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,160
He whispered back. 
I have no idea. 

37
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,400
I asked. 
Do you want to go back? 

38
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,760
He nodded his head yes quickly. 
The direction it was heading 

39
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,240
would have crossed the trail 
just around the curve. 

40
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,080
We turned around and started 
walking quickly back toward the 

41
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,480
car, both of us constantly 
looking over our shoulders. 

42
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,200
I started asking questions to 
make sure we saw the same thing 

43
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,440
and neither of us would forget 
we agreed. 

44
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,160
It was on its hind legs, it was 
brown, it was much bigger than 

45
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,440
us, and it was fast. 
Suddenly something flew fast 

46
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,080
over our heads, hitting leaves 
and branches. 

47
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:47,280
I turned and looked at my son's 
father with a what the heck look

48
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,520
on my face and his eyes were 
huge. 

49
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,160
We ran the rest of the way to 
the car. 

50
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,520
I had never been so scared, and 
it was, and wasn't sure we would

51
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,920
make it back to the car. 
We did and immediately he began 

52
00:02:58,920 --> 00:03:01,400
second guessing what we'd have 
just seen, suggesting maybe it 

53
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,960
was a bear, a deer, an elk, 
etcetera. 

54
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,320
I asked him if he'd ever seen a 
bear run like that on his hind 

55
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,400
legs, or a deer or elk that dark
running that smoothly. 

56
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,360
He said no. 
We went to the Tea Kettle Falls 

57
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,760
area, but I was too scared and 
anxious to get out of the car 

58
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:22,080
again, convince whatever it was 
could have easily covered the 

59
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,120
ground by then. 
A Google search once we had 

60
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,000
service revealed that only black
bears live in Arkansas, and I'm 

61
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,520
positive what we saw was brown. 
I didn't notice any smells, but 

62
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:38,320
since we were talking I also 
didn't notice if it was quiet or

63
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,080
if any birds or bugs were 
tripping. 

64
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,840
I know I have no desire to 
return to the area. 

65
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,360
I get sick to my stomach any 
time I think about it. 

66
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,240
It says also notice. 
Yes, I heard what I thought 

67
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,080
sounded like sniffing when we 
turned off the car. 

68
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,600
My son's father and I, we both 
saw it while hiking and no, it 

69
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,880
was my first time on this trail.
The time and conditions that 

70
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:03,480
says daylight, around noon, 
environment, forest, well that 

71
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,440
sounds like pretty up close and 
personal to me. 

72
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,440
Now if we go down here, they 
always do these great follow up 

73
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,040
investigations. 
That's what I just love about 

74
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,560
bfro.net. 
They take the time to really 

75
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,000
look into these things. 
It says follow up investigation 

76
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,120
reported by BFRO. 
Investigator Carter Bouchard 

77
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,120
spoke with Witness via phone. 
Her recollection of the event is

78
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,440
pretty straightforward and 
varies very little from the 

79
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,320
original version provided. 
As we spoke, I got a few other 

80
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:29,880
details that tie things 
together. 

81
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:34,360
This event happened at noon, 
give or take she the sound she 

82
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,240
heard when they first pulled 
into the parking lot was more 

83
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,440
like a huffing, sniffing sound. 
When she realized The Walking 

84
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,400
sticks were still in the car, 
she went back to get them. 

85
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,560
The car was parked about 25 
yards away from the trailhead 

86
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,200
entrance area and she could 
still see her companion from 

87
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,120
where she left him when she 
rejoined her companion. 

88
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,800
They started down the trail 
toward a towards a curve in the 

89
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,120
trail when they heard rustling 
and movement about 25 yards away

90
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,280
in the woods. 
They both looked in the 

91
00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:10,760
direction of the noise and saw a
quite clearly a giant medium 

92
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,480
chocolate brown creature running
through the woods. 

93
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:18,240
It was not a dark chocolate and 
she noted the differentiation. 

94
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:23,120
It was running with its arms 
raised up, seemingly protecting 

95
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,480
itself from branches slapping at
its face. 

96
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,120
The hands were black with no 
hair on either side. 

97
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,040
It was headed directly toward 
the curve in the trail they were

98
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,320
headed for, which was about 25 
to 30 yards from their position.

99
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,440
They saw it and instantly agreed
to get out of there. 

100
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,400
They kept looking over their 
shoulders to be sure it was not 

101
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,600
after them. 
At some point a rock or limb was

102
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,840
tossed in their direction which 
hastened their departure. 

103
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:56,280
The rest of the story she told 
was is it was written after they

104
00:05:56,280 --> 00:05:57,760
had time to think about the 
event. 

105
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,400
After the fact, they were pretty
certain they were being 

106
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,320
paralleled from the car to the 
event. 

107
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,240
The time of the sighting was in 
the three to five second range. 

108
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,400
They knew what they saw and they
knew what they did not see. 

109
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:17,440
Wow, kind of like with these UFO
things, they just maybe you 

110
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,440
can't explain everything about 
it, but you know what it's not? 

111
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,280
It says here Carter is 
originally from Texas that moved

112
00:06:22,280 --> 00:06:24,840
to Missouri in 1988, 
Professional drummer for 20 

113
00:06:24,840 --> 00:06:26,920
years. 
And then it gives his biography 

114
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,600
there a picture of the fellow 
that investigated. 

115
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,760
It really kind of does a full 
circle on these encounters over 

116
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,760
here at bfro.net. 
Let's go ahead and take a look 

117
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,880
at this next one. 
Now, this next case comes from 

118
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,280
Marion County, Arkansas. 
It says now that's located up 

119
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:46,440
there on the very northern 
border of Arkansas with 

120
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,280
Missouri, kind of southeast of 
Branson, MO. 

121
00:06:50,280 --> 00:06:51,240
To give you an idea where it's 
at. 

122
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,160
Very, very pretty country up 
there. 

123
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:58,640
They says happened September 9th
and 10th of 2022. 

124
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,960
The this location says is 95 
miles north of Little Rock on 

125
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,160
the Buffalo River. 
First sounds heard around 4:00 

126
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,880
PM while paddling camp where 
incidents occurred all night 

127
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,760
long. 
It gives you the cordons on that

128
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,800
nearest town, Harriet, nearest 
Road 653. 

129
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,360
Now according to the 
experiencers, it says on 

130
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,760
September 8th, 2022, my son and 
I packed up to go kayak camping 

131
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,480
on the lower Buffalo River. 
We planned a three night trip as

132
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:31,400
we would take our time fishing. 
We drove for about six or seven 

133
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,280
hours and finally arrived. 
We put in at rush and only went 

134
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,960
about four miles that afternoon,
just soaking up the beauty. 

135
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,400
We made camp and enjoyed a 
peaceful night. 

136
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,640
So you can just imagine these 
guys kayaking down this river 

137
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,320
just having a good time of it. 
It's beautiful. 

138
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,760
There are lots of green trees, 
you know, limestone cliffs. 

139
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,640
I'm sure I've been down in that 
area. 

140
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,320
It's really cool. 
On September 9th, 2022, we 

141
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,600
started the day at first light. 
We knew that we wanted to camp 

142
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,080
close to Big Creek to stay on 
schedule, so we fished all day 

143
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,360
and simply enjoyed the day. 
By late afternoon it was hot, 

144
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,880
but not too hot. 
I believe the temperature was 

145
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:12,320
somewhere around 83 to 85° and 
it was a somewhat clear day with

146
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,640
low humidity. 
At approximately 4 PMI believe 

147
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,280
we had stopped fishing and we're
looking for a good campsite is 

148
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:20,640
we were getting close to Big 
Creek. 

149
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,200
I believe that there was some 
type of obstruction or cut to 

150
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,640
the left where we weren't 
paddling but simply letting the 

151
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,960
river pushes. 
We were quiet and not talking, 

152
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,080
just quietly floating. 
And then he has the location 

153
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:38,520
here says 36 point O 9 by -92 
which was to our left at 

154
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,080
approximately 20 yards away. 
We heard what can best be 

155
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,880
described as a angry monkey. 
It literally sounded like a 

156
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,800
monkey as it ripped away at 
whatever was in its path. 

157
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:52,600
As it went away from the river. 
It was still making the angry 

158
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,960
monkey sounds as it tore through
the woods. 

159
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,320
We both look surprised and asked
what the heck was that. 

160
00:08:58,560 --> 00:09:01,720
As we started paddling away from
location we just joked about the

161
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,600
sound and just wanted to put a 
little distance between US and 

162
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,240
the angry monkey. 
This occurred just north of Bee 

163
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,680
Creek, approximately 1.29 miles 
away. 

164
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,600
We paddled about 2.78 river 
miles from the Angry Monkey and 

165
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,240
stopped on the river left at a 
small gravel bar to make camp. 

166
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,280
We went into full camp mode and 
started to get everything set 

167
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,560
up. 
That's when we heard the first 

168
00:09:25,560 --> 00:09:27,680
wood knock. 
We both stopped what we were 

169
00:09:27,680 --> 00:09:30,080
doing and looked toward the 
knock from our camp. 

170
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,360
It was from the ridgeline across
the river from us at north up 

171
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,280
the Ridge a little downriver. 
I looked at my son and said that

172
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,600
was a Dang wood knock. 
Now we joked earlier that the 

173
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:45,840
angry monkey sound could have 
been an old Sasquatch, but we 

174
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,840
were joking. 
I actually believe my son said 

175
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,760
that a bear can make some crazy 
sounds like that when surprised.

176
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,000
Regardless, we now just heard a 
tree knock, no doubt about it. 

177
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,960
We both made some slight 
comments joking about it and 

178
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,680
continue to set up camp. 
Our camp was on a narrow gravel 

179
00:10:02,680 --> 00:10:05,040
rock bar that was approximately 
15 to 20 yards wide. 

180
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,080
We had a clear field of view up 
and down the river. 

181
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:12,120
Our tents were set up about 20 
feet from the tree line with the

182
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:13,920
tents only being about 12 feet 
apart. 

183
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,240
The fire was directly in front 
of both tents and split the 

184
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,040
difference between the tents and
the water. 

185
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,560
We had two kayaks pulled 
completely out of the water to 

186
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,000
our front right. 
Once camp was set up we jumped 

187
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,960
in the river for a little while 
and knocked the days Graham off.

188
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,760
After that we walked the river 
Rock bar and Feast for a very 

189
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,000
short time and then gathered 
enough wood to have a fire that 

190
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,800
would last us until we hit the 
sack. 

191
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,880
We then settled in by a fire and
just talked about the day. 

192
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,400
At approximately 8:00 PM the 
night started creeping in and I 

193
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,360
grabbed my weather radio to 
check the weather since rain was

194
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,840
supposed to move in the next 
day. 

195
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,040
We sat around and listened to 
two regional reports and clicked

196
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,760
it off. 
Immediately after that, all hell

197
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,480
broke loose and lasted until 
4:00 AM. 

198
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:05,360
As if on cue, we heard a yell 
that came from the ridgeline 

199
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,280
close to where the tree knock 
was earlier. 

200
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,760
That freaked us out. 
We immediately jumped up and 

201
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,080
walked toward the water where 
the campfire smoke wouldn't 

202
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,480
block our view. 
We started looking in the 

203
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,160
general direction and begin 
talking about what the heck 

204
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,280
would or even could make that 
noise. 

205
00:11:22,560 --> 00:11:25,600
We then started asking ourselves
if someone could be up on the 

206
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,960
Ridge messing with us, Doubtful 
based on the location and 

207
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,040
terrain. 
We were after all in the 

208
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,760
wilderness. 
The yell was extremely loud and 

209
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,720
deep and sounded angry. 
It wasn't long after that, in 

210
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,600
fact my son was still standing 
up, that we heard a noise coming

211
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,200
from our rear but it was a 
higher pitch and I couldn't make

212
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,080
it out but it had a melody to 
it. 

213
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,200
I stood up and looked at my son 
and asked what the heck was 

214
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,600
that. 
He said you don't want to know 

215
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:57,000
what I heard and of course I 
said I do and he said it sounded

216
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,480
like a woman singing. 
Now that really freaked me out 

217
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,040
but freaked my son out more 
because he could actually hear 

218
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,360
it better. 
We immediately went to our tents

219
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,760
and retrieved our handguns 
without a word being spoken. 

220
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,280
My concern was that something 
was on our side of the river and

221
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:17,360
I didn't like the idea at all. 
I immediately began lighting up 

222
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,640
our camp. 
I wasn't sure what was going on,

223
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:22,720
but I didn't have a good feeling
about it. 

224
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,480
I had three pop up LED lanterns,
a battery operated canopy, 

225
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,800
string, LED light and chem 
lights. 

226
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,080
I strung the string lights up 
behind the tents at the wood 

227
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,320
line, placed one pop up Lantern 
between the tents, 1 to our 

228
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,880
right and one to our left. 
The fire was to our front and I 

229
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,840
tied a chem light to a fishing 
pole on each kayak once we had 

230
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,600
lighted the perimeter set. 
Once we had a lighted perimeter 

231
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,640
set we began gathering all the 
wood we could possibly gather 

232
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,280
and settled in listening more 
than talking. 

233
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:59,000
Between 9:00 and 9:30 PM the 1st
rock of the evening came flying 

234
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,400
off the Ridge and landed in the 
river to our left, close to 

235
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,680
where the first tree knot came 
from but further toward the 

236
00:13:05,680 --> 00:13:08,440
front of our position. 
I'm not talking about a small 

237
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,000
rock, I mean a cantaloupe size 
rock. 

238
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,480
We both jumped up and walked to 
the edge of the water with 

239
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,720
flashlights and pistols. 
We scanned the Ridge but didn't 

240
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,360
see anything. 
It was then that I told my son 

241
00:13:20,680 --> 00:13:23,400
this thing is mad and wants us 
out of here. 

242
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,120
We went back down and discussed 
our options. 

243
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,880
We could we we couldn't run the 
Buffalo River at night on a 

244
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,840
section that we've never been 
down before. 

245
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,160
We literally didn't know what's 
around the next bend. 

246
00:13:36,560 --> 00:13:39,600
We had no choice but to hunker 
down and prepare the best we 

247
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,120
could. 
We went and gathered more wood. 

248
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,400
Once we gathered all that we 
could, we sit down and discuss 

249
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,920
what we would what we would do. 
I told my son that he would 

250
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:53,120
sleep first, but to drag his cot
out of his tent and place it 

251
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,680
between the fire and one of the 
perimeter lights. 

252
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,320
He would sleep for two hours. 
Wife pulled fire watch and then 

253
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,680
he would swap. 
At 10:30 PM my son settled in to

254
00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:07,000
sleep. 
As I started my first watch at 

255
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,680
approximately 1045 PMI heard a 
tree knock close to the same 

256
00:14:10,680 --> 00:14:12,400
location as the first tree 
knock. 

257
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:17,280
However, immediately after that 
knock and for the first time 

258
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,920
since the initial contact, I 
heard the angry monkey sounds. 

259
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,280
It seemed more ramped up than 
the 1st. 

260
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,800
The angry monkey was further 
down the Ridge and to the north,

261
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,160
but close to the end of the 
Ridge in the river. 

262
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,200
I then got worried because this 
thing wasn't far from the other 

263
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,360
gravel bar that we could see 
from camp. 

264
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,280
It could easily cross the river 
and come in on a flanking move 

265
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,200
or come to our rear. 
At approximately 10:50 PM, 

266
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,760
immediately across from us and 
on top of the Ridge, I heard a 

267
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,120
very, very deep chatter mumble 
vocalization. 

268
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,920
I immediately recognize the 
sounds from the Sierra sounds. 

269
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,120
Samuel. 
Same samurai sound, but seemed 

270
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,280
deeper. 
It was at that time that I 

271
00:14:58,280 --> 00:14:59,760
realized that we were in 
trouble. 

272
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,280
With the angry monkey making its
way down the Ridge and the 

273
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,600
samurai sounds. 
My stomach turned. 

274
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,600
I started doing notes on my 
phone because I was actually 

275
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,800
afraid that something was going 
to happen if we didn't leave. 

276
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,720
I figured that we were possibly 
at our last stand location and 

277
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,440
the night was not going to end 
well. 

278
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,960
I had to make the decision to 
start doing notes to make sure 

279
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,040
that someone would read what 
happened in the event everything

280
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,520
went bad. 
I also did a video of the 

281
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,320
campsite and how everything was 
set up along with my son 

282
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,160
sleeping in my gut and I felt 
that we didn't have a chance in 

283
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,080
heck. 
We were trapped with our backs 

284
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,640
to the river and the Ridge. 
We had no way to get the heck 

285
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,560
out of there and no way to call 
for help due to no cell phone 

286
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,240
service. 
Continuing with my watch, at 

287
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,720
approximately 11:45 PMI heard 
chattering in the same location 

288
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:53,160
as the first tree knocks and at 
12:30 AM my watch ended. 

289
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,600
I awoke my son and gave him all 
this information. 

290
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,000
I also advised him to watch our 
rear because the angry monkey 

291
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,080
might be trying to work its way 
to our rear. 

292
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,720
I wrecked out. 
My son woke up for the 2nd watch

293
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:09,400
and passed on this information. 
He said he heard the angry 

294
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,520
monkey. 
At 2:45 AM the last watch began.

295
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,080
I had to go out and try to find 
firewood because we weren't 

296
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,760
going to have enough to last 
through the night. 

297
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,120
I was able to scavenge some 
within the wood line but had to 

298
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,680
take multiple trips to to having
only one hand free. 

299
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:28,080
The pistol was in the other. 
At approximately 317, AMI heard 

300
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:32,400
a deep angry monkey sound 
immediately across from the camp

301
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,560
on the Ridge. 
That was immediately followed by

302
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,360
yet another rock thrown into the
river. 

303
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:41,400
At approximately 326, AMI heard 
deep chattering halfway down the

304
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,680
Ridge. 
That actually scared the heck 

305
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,880
out of me because it was coming 
down closer. 

306
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:51,040
At approximately 332, AMI heard 
a tree snap to my rear. 

307
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,440
It was the sound of good 
firewood that you put on your 

308
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,480
knee and snap it in half. 
Except this sounded like a log 

309
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,440
that I got snapped. 
I jumped up, pointed my pistol 

310
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,560
in the general in the general 
direction and woke my son who 

311
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,160
had slept through it. 
I explained to him what just 

312
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,760
happened and he armed himself 
while facing the tree line. 

313
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,560
We slowly backed up to the fire 
as we scanned the area. 

314
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,520
I didn't hear anything run off 
and best I could tell it was 

315
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,720
about 20 yards between the tree 
line and up the Ridge. 

316
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,560
While backed up to the fire pit.
On guard, I started running 

317
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,040
through the events that happened
while I was on watch. 

318
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,320
We both came to the realization 
that things were escalating and 

319
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,960
we had to do something. 
After a brief discussion we 

320
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,520
decided that we had to show we 
intended to leave. 

321
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,360
We decided to start breaking 
camp and pack everything into 

322
00:17:40,360 --> 00:17:42,520
the kayaks. 
We did just that. 

323
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,840
It did not take us long at all 
and before no time the kayaks 

324
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,320
were loaded and all that was 
left were our chair, water 

325
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:54,240
bottles and lighted perimeter. 
At approximately 4:00 AM we had 

326
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,840
the fire blazing and sat down. 
Not long after we sat down my 

327
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,240
son said did you hear that? 
And I said no, but then I heard 

328
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,920
something that sounded like a 
laugh. 

329
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,200
I looked at my son and said what
the heck? 

330
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,720
He said he heard one whistle and
pointed to our right across the 

331
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,840
river. 
Then he pointed to our left and 

332
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,760
said another one was laughing at
us from across the river. 

333
00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:18,920
The whistle I did not hear. 
We sat there in our chairs until

334
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,760
sunrise with no further 
activities. 

335
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,040
Right before first light we 
began to gather up everything 

336
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,960
and finalize our packing. 
As soon as we walked to our 

337
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,880
kayaks to push them off, a rock 
came off the Ridge, hit a tree 

338
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,760
on the way down and hit the 
water in front of us. 

339
00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:36,000
I shouted we are leaving and we 
did just that. 

340
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,360
We paddled about 12 miles 
straight to the White River 

341
00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:41,880
where we came out at Riley's 
Outfitters. 

342
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,760
Neither one of us said a word 
about this to anyone we 

343
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,640
encountered at the Outfitters. 
Needless to say, our trip was 

344
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,280
cut short, but we were good with
that. 

345
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,560
After we returned home, I 
battled with the thought of 

346
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,240
contacting the Ranger station at
Buffalo Point. 

347
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,560
I knew that the story was going 
to sound crazy, but I would have

348
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,640
felt guilty if I had read 
something later on about a 

349
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:05,600
family being hurt on that 
section of the river and I never

350
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,000
said anything. 
So on September 11th, 2022, I 

351
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,040
started using my law enforcement
contacts in an effort to speak 

352
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,760
directly with a Ranger on the 
Buffalo. 

353
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:20,400
All the information was passed 
along through a contact and I 

354
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,080
was advised that I would receive
a phone call that that call came

355
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,880
a few days later and all the 
information was passed along. 

356
00:19:27,120 --> 00:19:29,840
I was advised that an 
investigation would take place 

357
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,040
at the coordinates that I 
released and that I would be 

358
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,080
contacted if any further 
information was needed. 

359
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:39,200
Also in the story wood knocks, 
yell, rocks, thrown, singing, 

360
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,520
chatter and angry monkey sounds.
Other witness, one witness my 

361
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,800
son, other stories no. 
And then it says time and 

362
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,000
conditions. 
First contact at 4:00 PM 83 to 

363
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:53,720
85°, low humidity, full moon, 
environment, Buffalo River, high

364
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,160
Bluffs, forest and rocky. 
Wow, that's really well, kind of

365
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,520
a lengthy account there. 
I wish you would use that cell 

366
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,600
phone to record some of the 
sounds. 

367
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,480
The experiencer said that they 
had recorded their son sleeping 

368
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,120
with their cell phone, and I 
don't know why they didn't go 

369
00:20:09,120 --> 00:20:11,880
ahead and record some of these 
angry monkey sounds too. 

370
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,520
That would have been great. 
But either way, a great report 

371
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:15,120
here. 
We'll take a look. 

372
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:20,120
Briefly at what the investigator
said, it says follow up 

373
00:20:20,120 --> 00:20:23,040
investigator report by BFRO 
investigator Matthew Money 

374
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,320
Maker. 
I spoke with both witnesses 

375
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,880
separately by phone. 
They are both credible and 

376
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,640
willing to speak with 
journalists for scientists. 

377
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,400
The father, Lee Yu, is retired 
from 27 years in law 

378
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,400
enforcement. 
His son is a welder for large 

379
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:39,360
infrastructure projects. 
They both describe the same 

380
00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:41,880
sounds. 
The only visuals were the brush 

381
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,320
and trees moving as a creature, 
making the angry monkey sounds 

382
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,920
crashed through crashed away 
from the edge of the river as a 

383
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,080
kayakers paddle by. 
I asked him to imitate the 

384
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,400
sounds. 
He made a series of rapid 

385
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,960
whoops. 
I mentioned that an owl can make

386
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,320
rapid fire whoop sounds too, but
that possibly is eliminated. 

387
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,280
If the sounds weren't moving 
away along with the sounds of 

388
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,720
heavy brush breaking, that would
not be an owl. 

389
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,880
The other visuals were the rocks
coming down from above. 

390
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,840
Some hit the trees above them 
before hitting the water. 

391
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,440
That would eliminate Beaver tail
slaps explanation, which would 

392
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,160
sound identical to a cantaloupe 
sized rock hitting the river. 

393
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,880
All the other sounds at the camp
that night are very consistent 

394
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,320
with sasquatches. 
Even more pertinent, the BFRO 

395
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,240
has known about sightings along 
this river for many years. 

396
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,520
About 10 years ago, there was a 
large BFRO expedition on this 

397
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,720
river, a different section, but 
the attendees did not bring 

398
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:40,080
boats to navigate the river. 
The portion of this long, remote

399
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,520
river where the incidents 
occurred can only be accessed by

400
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,040
kayak. 
Canoes are not advised because 

401
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:50,080
there are Rapids along the way. 
There were no other people 

402
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,760
floating down this remote 
section of river over the few 

403
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,560
days they were there, it says. 
How remote is it? 

404
00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:00,880
They had to paddle 15 miles 
until they reached an Outfitters

405
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,960
off boat ramp where they could 
pull out of the river. 

406
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,240
It doesn't get much more remote 
in the Midwestern US, That's a 

407
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,480
fact. 
This location is pretty darn 

408
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,560
close to a sure bet in the 
hottest part of summer if you 

409
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,560
want to experience some intense 
Class B Sasquatch activity. 

410
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,240
But these two? 
But as these two Kyogres noted, 

411
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,360
once you are there on this 
gravel bar for the evening, you 

412
00:22:21,360 --> 00:22:24,000
cannot leave until sunrise. 
You are totally committed. 

413
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:28,480
There is no escape. 
A very courageous solo kayaker 

414
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,600
camper with a thermal camera and
an audio recorder will have 

415
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:36,800
great odds of obtaining some 
recorded documentation at the 

416
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,840
hottest time of year. 
The ground at this location is 

417
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,640
too rocky for tracks, but as we 
have seen elsewhere, that may 

418
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:47,120
make the Sasquatches more 
confident to approach a camp 

419
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,720
near the tree line after dark. 
Wow, what a fantastic sighting. 

420
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,600
I mean that is incredible. 
So we'll finish it up. 

421
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,800
This last sighting here, it says
November 26th, 2015. 

422
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,160
This happened in White County, 
Arkansas, nearest town. 

423
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,280
Seriously, a public hunting 
ground. 

424
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:06,920
Nearest Rd. 
A dirt Rd. 

425
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,400
The observer says. 
Hi BFRO, my sighting happened 

426
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,600
nine months ago. 
Seriously Arkansas In seriously 

427
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,720
Arkansas I was hunting on 
Thanksgiving Day. 

428
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,920
It was getting dark when I had a
rock thrown over my head which 

429
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,080
freaked me out. 
So I quickly turned around and 

430
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,960
lifted my shotgun and light and 
looked up and down the tree line

431
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,920
until I came up on a big oak and
I saw what looked like a 

432
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,960
Sasquatch looking at me from 
behind the oak and it yelled at 

433
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,680
me with a low grunt and high 
pitched scream. 

434
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:43,280
So I jumped and actually took a 
shot and hit the tree and it 

435
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,960
took off running back down the 
line toward a valley. 

436
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,480
Oh boy. 
Also noticed here in blood. 

437
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,080
Other witnesses know just me 
says yes once but he passed on a

438
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:57,880
couple of months ago. 7:00 and 
light raining and a little cold 

439
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,600
Forest Hills and dense meadows. 
Well, so then they have the 

440
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,000
report here from the 
investigator. 

441
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:08,200
It says follow follow up 
investigation report by BFRO 

442
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,720
investigator Carter Bouchard. 
I spoke with the witness for an 

443
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,520
hour on November 7th. 
Very down to earth and open. 

444
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,640
There ended up being a lot more 
to the account than in his 

445
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,200
written report. 
Reason being he had a lot to 

446
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,960
tell us and he was concerned 
about his report being sent 

447
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,680
successfully. 
He was hunting alone on that 

448
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,840
day. 
Every year he and members of his

449
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,440
family go hunting around 
Thanksgiving and they go 

450
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,680
somewhere different each time. 
His cousin had dropped him off 

451
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,600
at the hunting location mid 
afternoon and would pick him up 

452
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,480
a little after dark. 
These are public hunting 

453
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,760
grounds. 
He had not been to hit this 

454
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,280
particular area before. 
He found a good spot up on a 

455
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,280
hill and set on a rock with a 
good view of the woods and an 

456
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,880
open Meadow. 
He had been there for an hour or

457
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:56,040
so with little activity when he 
heard a low growling sound which

458
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,920
went on for about 10 minutes. 
He is an avid hunter and had 

459
00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:04,520
heard nothing like it before. 
He was searching his mind trying

460
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,840
to figure out the source. 
He knew it wasn't bear, cougar, 

461
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,920
or any big cat. 
Then about 30 yards in front of 

462
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,800
him, a pack of coyotes burst out
from the tree line and run 

463
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,240
across the Meadow. 
After they left his field of 

464
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,520
vision, it was when a rock was 
thrown in his direction. 

465
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,080
The rock came out from the tree 
line very close to where the 

466
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,840
coyotes had come out of the 
trees. 

467
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,160
This is where he grabbed his gun
and started scouring the tree 

468
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,040
line, ready to fire at whatever 
it was. 

469
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,280
Doesn't sound very safe knowing 
he would be alone after dark in 

470
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,920
an unfamiliar area and with 
concerns about the black bear, 

471
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:43,280
big cats, and poor lighting. 
He had used a flashlight, not a 

472
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,880
spotlight attached to his rifle 
due to poor lighting. 

473
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,400
He then saw a creature standing 
behind a large oak tree. 

474
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,680
It let out a low growl he had 
been hearing, then a high 

475
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,880
pitched scream. 
This is when he pulled the 

476
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,040
trigger in a knee jerk reaction 
to the scream. 

477
00:25:58,360 --> 00:26:01,480
The creature was described as at
least 8 feet tall with light 

478
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,600
brown hair, not fur. 
The creatures arm wrapped around

479
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,280
the front of the tree which was 
at least three plus feet wide. 

480
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,840
When the light hit the creature 
he noted the eye color was 

481
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,760
reddish yellow and when he 
lowered the light the eyes were 

482
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,520
still glowing. 
He knew he hit the tree from the

483
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,280
sound the bullet made when it 
hit. 

484
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,920
The creature then ran off across
the Meadow into a valley in the 

485
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,800
same general direction the 
coyotes went. 

486
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,840
The creature was massive, 
absolutely bipedal, and it was 

487
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,680
gone in three to four seconds. 
He sat there a moment to gather 

488
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,640
himself, then took a walk over 
to the tree. 

489
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,480
He indicated there was blood and
hair on the tree where the 

490
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,360
creature had been standing. 
He felt he probably hit it in 

491
00:26:40,360 --> 00:26:44,200
the arm since the bullet strike 
was square in the middle of the 

492
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,320
tree where the arm was wrapped 
around the tree. 

493
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,120
After a moment of reflection, 
his hair stood up on his neck 

494
00:26:51,120 --> 00:26:55,000
and arms and he then realized 
what he had seen and shot at. 

495
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,360
He sit down for a moment to 
gather himself. 

496
00:26:57,360 --> 00:27:00,120
He decided that he was going to 
follow the path the creature 

497
00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:03,480
took even though he knew he was 
asking for trouble, but with the

498
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,400
adrenaline flowing and thinking 
he had hit the creature he 

499
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,440
wanted to follow a bit to see if
it was down. 

500
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,680
I questioned his decision and he
stated I had the gun and it ran 

501
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,880
for me and would probably run 
again if it ever saw me. 

502
00:27:17,360 --> 00:27:20,560
Probably not the best relations 
to start up with one of these 

503
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:24,560
things by taking a shot at it, 
but I guess it's it's inevitable

504
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,520
someone's going to do that. 
He walked for five to 10 minutes

505
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,320
and had gone slightly off trail.
He saw a teepee like structure 

506
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,240
at least 8 to 9 feet tall with a
lot of animal bones laying 

507
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,760
around and an awful smell. 
He heard a rustling sound across

508
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,360
the open area near a briar patch
and saw a creature standing 

509
00:27:40,360 --> 00:27:43,720
there just looking him. 
The briar patch came up to the 

510
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:48,160
witness's chest but was about 3 
but was about knee high on this 

511
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,160
creature. 
Wow. 

512
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,480
He was about to raise his rifle 
when he saw a second creature, 

513
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,160
shorter than the first one step 
out from behind a thicket. 

514
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,760
He described the hair as about 
the same color as the 1st. 

515
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,280
He then saw a third creature, 
probably a juvenile, smaller 

516
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,440
than the other two, and he 
described the hair as reddish 

517
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,800
brown and not the same color as 
the others. 

518
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:12,760
He also noted that two of the 
three had eye glow shine, though

519
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,040
he did not remember did not 
remember exactly which ones were

520
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,160
shining and which ones were not.
He did not consider taking a 

521
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,160
shot. 
I just. 

522
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,520
It just did not occur to him. 
He felt he was looking at a 

523
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,200
family unit and was totally in 
awe. 

524
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,120
They stood there staring at each
other, and then the creatures 

525
00:28:29,120 --> 00:28:33,400
just all turned and walked off. 
This entire episode took five to

526
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,360
10 seconds. 
The time elapsed from the first 

527
00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:40,000
encounter to this one he 
estimated was to be about an 

528
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,400
hour. 
It was dusk and getting dark, so

529
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,720
he then headed back to where his
cousin was going to pick him up.

530
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,760
The entire time elapsed from 
being dropped off to the final 

531
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,400
event he estimated to be five to
six hours. 

532
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,080
And then it says down here 
commentary from investigator and

533
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,000
BFRO. 
Several items, but first and 

534
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:04,000
foremost BFBFRO is a no kill 
organization. 

535
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,520
We do not advocate or encourage 
the use of deadly force for 

536
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,000
evidence or purposes under any 
circumstances. 

537
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,600
That being said, they use the 
use of deadly force to protect 

538
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,080
yourself when one truly feels 
threatened while hunting is it 

539
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,440
is an accepted and normal 
reaction under most 

540
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,360
circumstances. 
This witnesses reaction upon 

541
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,880
first sight of the creature, 
then hearing the growl repeated 

542
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,320
and then a scream was a knee 
jerk reaction to a situation he 

543
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,440
and most others have never been 
in and it could be considered a 

544
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,640
normal reaction for many. 
Understandable yes. 

545
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,560
Acceptable with a bit of 
hindsight perhaps, perhaps not. 

546
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,360
His assessment of his situation 
was an eye of the beholder 

547
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,400
moment. 
Had he seen the family unit 

548
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,080
first and the solo encounter 
secondly, it is unlikely he 

549
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,920
would have raised his gun. 
Hindsight in the opinion of this

550
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,600
investigator only. 
We thank you for viewing our 

551
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,640
reports and supporting our 
continued efforts at BFRO. 

552
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,120
Wow, that's a wild one. 
Yeah. 

553
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,560
Just seeing this saying and just
see the difference in reaction 

554
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:07,480
he had once he's seen this, this
this creature, this entity and 

555
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,560
what appeared to him to be a 
family unit. 

556
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:11,200
Got a wonder what's going on 
there. 

557
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,800
Really, really cool sightings. 
I think all the way around is so

558
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:16,720
much fun to look at these. 
Until next time. 

559
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,520
This is UFO warning over and 
out.
