OBSERVED:
This story was related to me by an old-timer who was in his 90s at the
time. He didn't say what the date was but I would infer that it was when
he was still a young man who spent most of his spare time in the woods.
One day in fall he said that he saw two harry "monkey-like" animals across
the lake the looked at him "like he might be good to eat". The sighting
disturbed him so much that he related it to me when my father and i had
broken down after we had been fishing for the weekend in the Wolf Lake
State Forest. We needed a jump and the old fellow took to me and started
to tell me some stories from his past. When we mentioned that we had been
fishing at Wolf Lake, he remembered the story about seeing the [ostensible]
bigfoots at that location all those years ago.
Activities
of Witness: I guess the old
fellow had been hiking in the woods prior to seeing the two apparent primates
looking him over.
Description
of Creature: Two "monkey-like" animals
covered w dark hair one being quite a bit bigger than the other one.
