Ranger Felt Like Ambushed Prey
as Growling Bigfoot Smashes Jeep Window
Extremely Traumatic Encounter with Sequoia Sasquatch
Arthur B writes RMSO
Hi my name is Arthur, I'm Californian, I used to work as a ranger at the sequoia national park from 1994 to 1997, before I start I just want to say that I'm crying as I write this, because the memories are extremely traumatic.
It happened in 1997 in my last year working as a ranger, it was also this event that got me fired, I was patrolling an area that was not very frequented by visitors because of the density if the bushes, and because it was an easy area to get lost.
I had received a report of loud sounds coming from there sounds that were scaring the visitors, making them think there was a bear on the loose or something, it was noon and I was driving around the area with a jeep and a tranquilizer rifle just in case something was really there.
I spent one hour driving around and I stopped the jeep, exited it and was standing by the open door, and I was about to pick up my walkie talkie and report the situation to one of the other rangers that was patrolling the other side. When I heard something on my left, a loud growl.
I looked and there was a big reddish brown thing with wide shoulders, long arms and huge human hands looking at me, this part really breaks me every time I remember, because I got paralyzed in fear at the moment because this thing was bigger than any grizzly bear, and was glaring at me with a face that I can only describe as hungry predator.
I felt like an ambushed prey, I stood there and this thing charged at me with full force and I entered the jeep almost instantly. The creature crashed into the jeep breaking the door's window and the thing grunted in pain. I tuned the jeep on and accelerated beyond the speed limit of the park, I looked behind for a second and this monster was running after the jeep on all fours, just like a chimp. I panicked even more and I increased the speed and some curves later I finally lost him.
I arrived at the ranger station and there was nobody there, I remember being so panicked that I locked myself inside a bathroom and I'm certain that I fainted because I remember that everything went black, and when I woke up, it was 9 pm and the other rangers were looking for me.
My boss confronted me about the jeep having one of the sides damaged with the broken window and when I told him that a big animal attacked me, he got angry at me called me a liar who sleeps on the job, and accused me of crashing the jeep on a tree and making stories up to not to get in trouble, and fired me.
I did years and years of therapy and it didn't work, the memories still haunt me and I still have nightmares and sudden panic attacks, and I know, I know the thing that tried to snatch me was a bigfoot and not a bear. Because bears don't have human faces, human hands and wide shoulders, and they don't have freakishly long limbs. I lived with these memories for more than 20 years, this is my first time telling this story ever since, thank you for reading this if you had the patience.
