📝 Description
It was drizzling and he was standing less than 10 feet from the road. At the coordinates I sent it was about 25 feet from the single tree. It had hair that looked like a mop or dreads. Later when I processed it was drizzling to it�s hair was probably matted. Its nose was very distinct. The bridge of it was a perfect angle and flat triangle shaped nose. I live in south Texas and this was about 1k miles from my home but my son and I had doubts of what we saw. I only told my wife but I couldn�t go without knowing if maybe I saw a stump so we went back the following weekend. Drove the 1k miles to the exact spot . There was a print in the exact spot we saw it and no trees or stumps around. I have a picture of the print. We drove by it about 2 miles per hour [that night]. We must have caught it crossing the meadow and it must have tried to make us think it was a stump.
