Account
Nancy Williams and Doris Wilson found a huge footpring while "picking mayhaws in a baygall thicket" 100 yards off a farm-to-market road at Slop Jar Slough (not on map) and called Buddy Moore, editor of the Hardin County News-Visitor, to take a picture. They then found several more tracks, "kind of sliding" as if the creature had been running. There were only three toes.
