The Pittsburg County Sheriff has been in law enforcement for 38 years. He says he has never seen injuries like this from a wild animal. DNA is being tested. No identification has been made. She described it as dog-like. Meanwhile, in northeast Ohio last month, eight people reported encounters with a massive bipedal creature in just five days. Researchers are calling it a Bigfoot flap — the largest cluster of sightings since the 1970s. Something was moving through those woods. And whatever it was, it was moving fast. Two stories. Two states. One question that keeps coming up no matter how many times the mainstream tries to bury it — what is actually out there? On this Slingshot Nation Live, we're breaking it all down.
