π Description
I was in lacy township behind Clayton sand pit. Hiking with my dog. We walked up an area of slight elevation on a small trail that was not traveled frequently by others. My dog ran up to something in the brush about 40 yards ahead of me. I figured it was a deer but I wanted to see it anyway. When I ran up to it it was running away from me into the deep brush. All I saw was a dark shadow in the brush, and for a split second saw the back of a dark head of an animal. It was gone so fast. I stayed for a few minutes and listened but there was oddly no sound or footsteps. About 3 min later I heard some footsteps going down the hill away from me. Today I revisited the area and on my walk there I heard 2 animals in the brush about 35 yards in. I heard low breathing. When I got near it the footsteps and breathing stopped. Then when a gust of wind would blow there would be a few footsteps. Then nothing. I waited for over 5 minutes and nothing but silence so I left. The brush was too thick to see into any further.
