In July 2012, the magazine "NewsOk" published an article which described the events in Louisiana, Missouri in 1972. These events are called "Epic about Momo".

For a short time the entire state was in panic, and later the story broke all over America. Momo is the nickname of big scary and very smelly Bigfoot, whom the children saw loud growling and killed their dog.

It all began July 11, 1972. Two boys 8-year-old Terry Harrison and his brother 5-year-old Wally Harrison in a lovely hot day walking in the woods with his dog. House Harrison stood at the edge of the forest and at home that day was their older sister 15-year-old Doris Harrison. Suddenly she heard loud screaming boys outside and when he jumped to the window and looked out, he saw a terrible picture. There was a dark tall humanoid creature, at least 7 feet tall (2.1 meters) and so densely covered with long hair that was not visible even facial features. In one paw it held the bloodied body of a dog and nearby lay torn shreds of dog hair. And the smell of this creature was incredibly nasty!

"It was not human and this was not a bear" - then told Doris that in 2012, 55 years old, - "that was strange".

"Something you've never seen before?"- asked her a journalist.

"Yes, exactly".

When the animal is gone, boys and Doris told what had happened to his father, and later, a local farmer said that he, too, lost a dog. Soon other locals received a few messages about the strange creature and the terrible odor it leaves behind. At the same time the monster was given the nickname Momo.

"A few days after that incident, we heard in the distance the great roar," says the woman named bliss, "I know how to roar and growl of the lynx and other beasts, it was nothing like it.

My father at that moment screamed "We better get outta here, it goes here!".

Eyewitness observations accumulated like a snowball. One man claimed that he was pursued by a beast with red eyes, a group of schoolchildren claimed to see the monster right out the window of the classroom, and two women, who went for a picnic on the shore of the stream, said, as the creature chased them until they got into their car and quickly left from there.

They described it as large and humanoid and intelligent. It managed to grab the handle of the car door and tried to open the door. Another eyewitness Ellis Maynor was sitting in the late evening on my front porch with the dog and suddenly her dog for no reason started to growl loudly it is unclear to whom.

When Ellis went down with a flashlight to see, she saw a "large dark creature near the road that ran away". In addition, there were several reports of strange aggressive behavior of the local dogs. Momo soon became a national phenomenon in Louisiana. In town specifically began to arrive raiders Bigfoot, and the local found a strange large prints.

"He is not a person, he has a very large heel and just three fingers," said Christina Windmiller.
