I am new to this board and I am glad that I found it. I live in the Ozarks and there has been quite a few reports here desribing a different type of creature other than Bigfoot. These fellows are covered with scales rather than hair. I have dubbed the creature as the Creek Monster. Why? Most of the sightings have been in relation to a creek bed or a body of water.
The Creek Monster must look somewhat like the Creature from the Black Lagoon. I hope to have more information on the sightings soon.
