BFRO #10775: Nighttime sighting by motorist at the Saulteaux River

📍 Location

📝 Description

I was driving alone from my parents house in Gibbons, Alberta going home to Slave Lake,Alberta. I was a meteorological technician at the time. I was going down to the Saulteaux river crossing and spotted a large animal up ahead on the side of the highway standing on the snow ridge. It then ran through the snow on two legs,at great speed diagonally in the opposite direction i was going, to the edge of the forest,stopped, turned around and stared at me. I was stopped by this time and had a great look. It was about 11;00 P.M. and the sky was clear with almost a full mooon shining. It was very tall,about 8 feet and was covered in dark fur, maybe a dark reddish brown. It's face was bare of fur and it had a lion like mane. I was terrified at this point and took off.
