The witness ' hostess made a trip to Germany and asked the witness to water her plants for the summer. On three sides of the house she has large fields. 

There are two medium-sized fishing ponds in the field behind her house, and the banks of the ponds are very steep. He works long hours, so he didn't come to her house until 23:00. He was watering the plants when he heard what sounded like a woman screaming. He automatically assumed that someone was fishing, fell on one of the banks and injured himself. He shouted back, asking if she needed help. 

The answer was not what she had expected. It was a low growl. He could hear it, even though the ponds were more than two football fields away from where he was. The growl was deep, but not loud. 

What happened next made him run to his van. The grass in the field is like saw grass, it grows very fast and rises above the waist. He could hear something moving very fast on the grass. 

He ran back to the van as fast as he could. He left it on because he wasn't going to do it for a long time. He jumped into the van, put it in reverse, and shone the light on the field. 

As he did so, he saw something very tall, greenish-brown in color, go over a four-foot (1.2 m) fence and disappear into the trees about 50 feet (15 m) ahead and to the left of his van. He didn't think it was hairy, but he couldn't be sure. It had long, thin legs and a short, thick tail. He couldn't see his head because of the tree branches.
