Otsego County Michigan (Class A) BFRO

August 1950

I was using the outhouse right after I had woken up at about 9 in the morning. I was in the outhouse when I heard a rustling of leaves and sticks breaking. This wasn't unusual as we have a lot of deer near our house. The noise kept getting closer and closer, at this point I figured that it wasn't a deer because it was coming so close to the out house. I hastly pulled my pants up and opened the door. I saw bigfoot. He was very much like other people had described him tall, hairy, and buff. He looked like an over-sized monkey. As soon as he saw me he took off into the woods. Later that night my whole family heard screams, we assumed it was bigfoot eating a deer but we weren't sure.
