BFRO #76634: Snowbirds report stalking by a bigfoot at RV park 4 miles north of Green Swamp

📍 Location

📝 Description

I grew up in the country and we stay in mostly rural areas as we travel the country. This means I am accustomed to most sounds made by animals. My husband had gone to bed at midnight but I stayed up to watch TV. At around 4:30 am I heard a loud, deep, nasal �ah� grunt outside the RV. This sound woke our 4 cats and 3 of them ran to the buffet window to look out. This window faces the direction the sound was heard. Thirty seconds later, there were 2 more �ah� grunts, followed by 3 more approx. 20 seconds later then 5 grunts 15 seconds after that.The cats did not look frightened but were very interested in the sounds or something out the window. It sounded as if it was about 100 feet away. (I was in the living room at the back of our 43� 5th wheel so am using that as a comparison.) The only light on in the RV was the TV. I decided I did not want to look out so I turned off the TV and went up to bed. The cats stayed in the window. Approximately 5 minutes after climbing in bed, I heard 2 distinct knocks on the front passenger side of the RV. I know this sound because my husband will knock on the RV when we are unhooking to let me know the tanks are drained. I did not wake up my husband and I decided to ignore all of this and go to sleep.Two nights later I went to bed before my husband. I was lying there reading on my iPad in the dark, when I heard the same �ah� grunt twice but it sound much farther away and in the swamp area this time. It was around midnight. I called my husband into the bedroom but we did not hear it again. Right after he came into the bedroom, I lifted the blind on my side of the bed and looked into the swamp. I thought I saw eye shine about 5 feet off the ground and in the area that is full of water. The light source was the weak light from the bath house which was next to our RV on the driver�s side. I looked at my husband and by the time I looked back, the eye shine was gone.We left 2 days later and no further incidents happened in that time. I researched native Florida animals and listened to a variety of calls/sounds including donkeys. None of the sounds came even close to what I heard nor have I heard a sound like this before.
