Witness Account:
Early one morning with a friend we took a 1/4 mile drive to check fences and cattle from the farm. Coming to the first fence we noticed it was down. Pulling into a short grass 20 acre meadow we drove to the high spot in the middle of the meadow. Looking to the far right corner of the meadow my friend and I saw a large dark figure on two legs looking at us from the tree line. The size of the beast was stunning. Dark, hairy, long arms and after a time of about 20 seconds it moved from where it was across the corner to the other tree line at an angle and disappear into the tree line on other side of meadow. We were frozen and dumb founded and didn't move. To say the least we were in slight shock. This beast did not run but strode steadily towards its destination in a movement that was hard to comprehend as it moved like nothing I've ever encountered in my 65 years of life. I've been raised by my elders as a hunter gatherer and have a good sense of bush encounters from wolves, bears, big cats. This was an encounter beyond my senses. We gathered our senses and shot back to the ranch to tell his dad. His dad was a hard man that didn't believe what we told him. All 3 of us went back to the fields to let him look. We told him where it was and he went to the spot and came back to tell us he didn't even see a track. Up the road about a couple hundred yards was another gate fence and the wires were pulled apart like taffy. About 20 yards in was a milk cow that had been pulled apart just like the wires with the intestines only linking the two body parts and the parts being about 8 feet apart. Figure that one out ! His father was speechless and ushered us back to the farm. The cops and fish and game came out. Everything was taken. We weren't talked to by the authorities only my friends father said it was wolves and end of story ! My friend never spoke to me again after leaving the farm and moving away. Odd that they left shortly after this encounter. I know what I saw and that can never be taken from me regardless of what people might say or think. Wish I was a little wiser in my younger years so that I could have done more to do something more to prove our encounter.

Hand/foot prints:
Well over 7Feet tall. Dark hair that was not very long. Arms that were Ape like in appearance. Shining eyes.

Additional observations:
