In the latest video from the Mid-West Bigfoot Researchers YouTube channel, titled "Morse Lake Monsters~ Chapter 3- 'The Barn Encounters' Alto, MI 1977," we are taken on a journey back in time to a small town in Michigan where a group of children had a series of encounters with what they believed to be a large, dog-like creature. The video begins with the witness recounting an incident that occurred in a cornfield, where he and his friends came across an area of corn that had been ripped up and piled into a heap. As they approached the pile, they saw an eyeball staring back at them, followed by a large, dog-like creature running away. The witness also mentions that his father had seen a strange creature feeding on cows a week earlier, but had not told anyone about it. As the story continues, the witness describes an encounter where he and his friends were playing near a creek and saw a face in the bushes. They chased the creature, thinking it was a loose dog, and it ran into a drain pipe. The witness also mentions that a neighbor's dog had gone missing around the same time, and they believe it may have been taken by the same creature. One interesting bit of information that was mentioned in the video was the concept of "ecological niches." An ecological niche is the role a species plays in its environment, including its interactions with other species and the physical environment. In this case, the witness and his friends believed that the creature they were seeing was filling an ecological niche left by the extinction of large predators such as wolves and bears in the area. It's good to note that while the witnesses in the video describe the creature as a "big dog," the description of the creature's behavior and appearance is consistent with many reports of Bigfoot or Sasquatch sightings. The creature is described as being larger and thicker than a dog, with brown hair and a butt that runs away. These descriptions are similar to many other accounts of Bigfoot sightings. To sum up, the Mid-West Bigfoot Researchers' video "Morse Lake Monsters~ Chapter 3- 'The Barn Encounters' Alto, MI 1977" is a fascinating account of a series of encounters with a large, dog-like creature in Michigan. While the witnesses in the video describe the creature as a "big dog," the description of the creature's behavior and appearance is consistent with many reports of Bigfoot or Sasquatch sightings. Additionally, the video touches on the concept of ecological niches and how the creature the witnesses saw may be filling a role left by the extinction of other large predators in the area. We encourage our readers to watch the video and draw their own conclusions.
