DATE:    July 1974 
 

TIME:     12:30 am 
 

LOCATION:   Cherokee County, Kansas 
 

TERRAIN:    Woods about 100 yards behind our house 
 

OBSERVED:    I arrived home from work at around 12:30 AM (2nd shift). I got out of my car and noticed my dog was out near the woods barking viciously at something. Since it was dark, I could not see what was out there, so I started my car and backed up to shine the lights into the woods. I spotted my dog (a German Shepherd) at the edge of our yard by the trees with his fur up and barking at something in the woods. My mom called out to me to come inside, because something was out in the woods and was making an awful noise. Just then I heard a loud "roar" from the woods. I would describe it as lion roar noise that is in a cartoon, but much louder. This freaked me out, but I was concerned about my dog, so I walked towards the woods to see what was there. It made another roar, so I stopped and called to my dog to come to me. He did, so I did not go any further. I never saw the creature, but I did smell it and hear it. The smell was similar to a lathered horse, but somewhat skunky. I had similar experiences to this on other nights, including the smell coming into the house from a fan in the window. My dog went nuts on these nights as well.
 

Activities of Witness:   Coming home from work. 
 

Description of Creature:  I never saw the creature, but I did smell it and hear it. The smell was similar to a lathered horse, but somewhat skunky.  I did not go into the woods to check it out. Bears had been rumored to have been in SE Kansas a few years earlier, so I assumed it might have been a bear. A few years later, I read about bigfoot, and found the descriptions of the smell and sound of bigfoot to match what I had observed.
 

Other Notes:    N/A
 

Other (Informational or Encounter History in the General Area) Notes:    I had similar experiences to this on other nights, including the smell coming into the house from a fan in the window. My dog went nuts on these nights as well.
 

Additional Notes and or Follow up Comments N/A
