LOCATION:
St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana
TERRAIN:
In wooded area off Pearl river
OBSERVED:
This is probably nothing. A friend and I were camping in Honey Island Swamp.
We took our fishing boat looking for a place to set up our tent in the
WMA. We found a spot open enough to set up our tent. About
3 am we were awaken to very heavy footsteps. Whatever it what went
completely around our campsite before leaving. I took my flashlight
and scanned the area right afterwards but saw nothing. We found no
tracks, but the thick forest substrate would not have shown anything.
Whatever it was, it was not a person. No other people were nearby.
It may have been a bear or possibly a panther.
