Park rangers have a unique perspective on the wilderness, often witnessing strange and inexplicable occurrences that the average person never will. In a recent video from the YouTube channel Ex Ranger, one park ranger shares his chilling encounter with something otherworldly in the Rocky Mountains. The ranger, who has over a decade of experience, was sent to investigate strange noises reported by hikers on a barely-used trail. The noises were described as "inhuman screams," and the ranger quickly discovered large, oddly-shaped tracks in the mud. As the sun began to set, the ranger heard a high-pitched scream that he couldn't identify, and he knew he wasn't alone. With his flashlight, the ranger caught glimpses of something large moving through the underbrush. It was crouched in the undergrowth, watching him with sickly yellow eyes that didn't blink. The creature was massive, at least 7 feet tall and covered in thick, dark fur. The ranger couldn't believe what he was seeing, but he knew he had to get out of there. As he backed away, the creature followed, toying with him. The ranger tried to call for backup, but his radio wasn't getting a clear signal. He knew he was outmatched and out of his depth. The creature lunged at him, and the ranger swung his knife blindly, connecting with something solid. He turned and ran, the creature chasing him through the woods. The ranger made it to his truck and sped away, adrenaline pumping through his veins. He didn't tell his superiors everything, but he knew one thing for sure: there's something out there in those woods, something big and dangerous. This video is a fascinating glimpse into the world of park rangers and the strange encounters they sometimes have. While the ranger doesn't explicitly mention Bigfoot or Sasquatch, the creature he describes certainly fits the description of a dogman, a creature from Native American folklore that is said to be a large, wolf-like creature that walks on two legs. As Bigfoot believers, we're always excited to hear stories of strange and inexplicable occurrences in the wilderness. This video is definitely worth a watch, and it's sure to leave you questioning what's really out there in the woods.
