Image: AI-generated (Midjourney) According to a report submitted to the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (BFRO), the incident occurred back on June 15th when a woman named Amber, along with her husband and cousin, ventured out into the wilderness to help find a girl who had gone missing in the area.

The group had gone around 20 miles down a dirt track after dark and they had been using a spotlight to help illuminate their way when the beam shone onto something large standing nearby.

The creature was described as 7ft tall, at least 400lbs and had a wide body and shoulders.

Its eyes reflected a golden color, its face was described as "leathery" and it was covered in hair.

The group stood there staring in horror at the creature for several minutes before deciding to flee.Fortunately, the girl who they had been looking for was later found safe and well, but she did have her own story to tell.

She told rescuers that she had been spooked by something in the undergrowth that had caused her to panic and run away - resulting in a tumble off a cliff.

She also described seeing "glowing things" moving toward her in the darkness.

Could her ordeal have been sparked by an encounter with the same creature ?

We will likely never know for sure.
