Observations of strange "Batsquatch"- bipedal apes with wings like a bat

In the archives of cryptozoology sometimes there are sightings of the absolutely bizarre creatures, which are difficult to classify. For example, the people often for many years see the Yeti in recent years become common to see winged creatures similar to bats. It would seem that these two creatures are very different and occupy different "ecological niches".

But what to do with cases where witnesses see a winged Sasquatch? And this is not isolated cases, they cryptozoologists have even coined the term "Batsquatch" ("Batsquatch") Bat - a bat and "Sasquatch"- North American Bigfoot. In Washington state, near the large cities of Portland and Seattle is an active stratovolcano (layered) St Helens.

He is best known for catastrophic (5 points on a scale eruptions) eruption may 18, 1980, which killed 57 people. The eruption was so strong that it completely destroyed the upper part of the mountain, and reduced its height from 2,950 meters up to 2549 meters and left behind a huge crater. This eruption is the most devastating volcanic event in U.S. history and it also marks the beginning of one of the strangest American cryptozoological stories. During a natural disaster unexpectedly began to receive reports from local residents who claimed to have seen a humanoid creature with a monkey's body, glowing eyes and large wings like a bat. Being seen in different areas affected by the eruption. And not just seen. It was reported that it killed cats and dogs, many of which ended up on the streets due to the destruction of houses, and attacks on cows and sheep. After the eruption, a stream of messages about Batsche not stopped and continued until 1994. I had the impression that the volcano is like the "awakened" this creature, and then it started to walk around the neighborhood and to expand your hunting area.

After 1994, it was observed much less frequently. In April 1994 a young man named Brian Canfield was driving on a remote stretch of road through the heathland in the foothills of mount Rainier, the lake on Kapowsin when his vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly stalled. Given that the pickup was in excellent working condition, Canfield was at a loss, and after several attempts to restart the car failed to turn her on. He seemed permanently stuck there alone, where there was not one person and only the headlights of his car illuminated a small stretch of road. And suddenly something crossed the light from the headlights and the guy first thought it was big bird. But then it seemed the light again and now he could see it. It was a very massive winged humanoid with APE-like body and its growth was more than 9 feet (2.7 meters). When the creature came closer, could well be considered his dark fur with a bluish glow that covered his whole body, his face was like a huge bat, but with big sharp teeth and glowing eyes. His legs still look absolutely not the monkey, and resembled the feet of the big bird. The strange beast moved to a field near the road and stopped there.

"He looked at me and seemed to understand what I am and what to do with me. I was so scared and all the hair on my body stood on end. However, the threats from him I felt it was just something inappropriate, like I broke into someone's house. He looked right at me with deep eyes, and at the same time as through me. He stood there for a few minutes. Then his fingers twitched and the wings began to unfold. Those big wings were the same width as the road. Then suddenly he started up the motor of my car and I went to this place as fast as I could"

The story of Brian came out in the media and quite widely dispersed across the national press. It was after this incident, the creature was nicknamed Batsquatch. Himself Brian was a man of honest and never used any drugs and even not drinking, what gave additional weight to his story. It was one of the most described cases Batsquatch, but in the same 1994 he was seen by one person. This time it was the owner of the owner of a local liquor store the liquor, and also an avid climber and an Amateur pilot named Butch Whittaker. He claimed that when he flew over mount Rainier (another stratovolcano in the same WA), next to him suddenly flew a large winged humanoid creature. It moved next to the plane for a few minutes and then went about his business.

The following report on the observation of Batsquatch came in 1998. The eyewitness claimed to have seen a massive logging truck ran over one of these beasts on a mountain road, but at first he thought that hurt people and when the truck stalled on the roadside, an eyewitness rushed to him to help the alleged victim. On the spot, he found that the shot down is no man at all, and that being shot down does not hurt, and soon left the scene.

"This creature was sitting there, slightly hunched over, but at full height it was huge, probably at least 15 feet (4.5 meters). The tail he had, and his head seemed small compared to the very large body. His eyes were like little purple beads that reminded me of the eyes of rats. His ears were long and pointed, the nose is very small and also why it is purple. I think this is the only creature in the world that has a purple nose. The wingspan of this creature with its large body was suddenly very small, it seemed that he can't fly with those wings. However, later I realized that he had extra wings and they were span over 40 feet (12 meters). The most worrying feature of this big beast was his hands. He had four hands! It was his hands that were on the tips of the four wings. The creature looked creepy and was afraid to look at him."

Another observation Batsquatch in Washington state is dated 2009. The tourists went to mount Shasta (the mountain is associated with many mystical legends), which is also a stratovolcano. There scared of flying humanoid emerging from a cave in the mountain:

"It was huge and stocky as Hulk Hogan and had leathery wings. I believe that the wingspan was at least 50 feet from one end to the other (15 metres). I was holding my camera, but was paralyzed with fear when that thing flew past us and nothing was caught. Maybe it was a pterodactyl? It flew at high speed and it seems that his head was like a bat. The damn thing flew into a clump of trees and disappeared."

A creature according to the descriptions in Batsquatch, seen before the eruption of the volcano in Washington. In January 1976, there was a wave of sightings of similar creatures in the next two weeks in Texas. In one case, brothers David and John dauth was driving on a rural road in the valley of the Rio Grande, when a humanoid with a head resembling the head of a wolf and wings like a bat landed in front of them, causing them to scream and slow down. As they tried to move away from the nightmarish creature, it jumped forward like he was going to attack people, but only opened its wings and flew over them with a loud whistle from the wings.

In another case a father and son claimed to have been hunting deer in the County of Hidalgo, near Houston, when a large winged creature swooped down to grab father. Defending the father, the son, being shot from his rifle and the creature flew away, leaving the father with wounds and broken ribs. In the same area at least 10 employees later told police that they saw a flying monster.
