Incident date:

27.12.1981

Location:

Хакни

United Kingdom

Four boys aged between nine and thirteen were walking their dogs through Hackney marshes when they came across three claw marks in the snow, one of which is identified as bear tracks.

They soon came across an elderly couple who told the boys to leave the area as there was a "bear"around. Curiously, the boys came across a "giant, huge, snarling bear-like animal" that stood on its hind legs, forcing the boys to run.

The next day, police searched the 5,000-acre wasteland with dogs and a helicopter, but found nothing but a few convincing footprints, which, oddly enough, ended abruptly.
