CRAWLER HUMANOID Encountered While Jackrabbit Hunting in Western Idaho

A group of friends and family were hunting jackrabbits in western Idaho at night when they spotlighted a tall lanky humanoid figure after hearing blood-curdling screams.

"This incident occurred in western Idaho. This account comes from a very close family friend of my grandpa, his name is Neil. He's the kind of person that wouldn't lie about something like this and I honestly believe his story. This story was told while I was on a hunting trip with my grandpa, father, a few of my uncles, Neil, and one or two other people. I don't know exactly how the conversation led to talking about strange and unknown things seen in the wild, but here we were. This was a few years ago, so forgive me if I've forgotten some details.

Neil's story. A few years back (he described it to be about the early 1990s) and one of my friends had gotten permission to go and hunt jackrabbits on another one of my friend's properties out in a very remote part of western Idaho (I can't remember exactly where. But they had come an hour or two from the Weiser area in). The property was out in the middle of the desert quite far from any small town or city. We entered on the north side of the property over a cattle guard and through a gate. The property was kind of in a valley and was divided into a very large flat plain mostly on one half and then on the other was a very large hill that spanned the length of the private land. It had an elevation of probably 200 to 300 ft give or take.

That night we had been working the flatter part of the land with the spotlight on my truck and flashlights in hand shooting the rabbits. It was a clear night and the moon was probably 3/4ths full, so it was relatively easy to see some elements of the property by the moonlight. We started a little after dusk and by this time it was about midnight and were about 2/3rds down the length of the property when we heard this, unhuman, blood-curdling scream come from the eastern side of where the hill ran. I looked at my friend and we both froze. We were at the truck using the spotlight looking for rabbits when it happened. We were probably 200 to 300 yards from the base of the hill so the top of the hill was probably another 100 yards or so from the base to the top.

As I started to scan the hillside with my scope the creature screamed again. I then followed the sound and saw a tall lanky humanoid figure standing with the upper half of its body silhouetted against the sky at the top of the hill. I had fired a shot toward it from my .22 knowing it wouldn't make it to the creature. But I wanted to try and get it to move up and over the hill so I could get a better look at it. But instead this "thing" started to move down the hill toward us. Right after that happened booked it to the closest side of the property, found a gate, shot the lock off, and drove away from there as fast as we could.

To this day I still don't know what I saw, but it scared the daylights out of me.

So there's Neil's story to the best of my recollection. I would love to hear what yall think, Skinwalker? Wendigo? Let me know!" HP

NOTE: Most likely this was a crawler humanoid. Lon
