Hillsborough County Florida (Class B) BFRO

November 2018

My husband and I live in Florida in Hillsborough County next to the wildlife preserve. One day about 2 weeks ago we were traveling on highway 301 and I saw a sign that said Dead River. I glanced to look at the river as this was in broad daylight. What I saw I'll never forget. I didn't even believe in bigfoot before this. I saw a big white furry animal standing straight up like a human crossing over the stream. We were traveling fast on the road so we couldn't just stop. I told my husband I just saw an animal as I was in shock about what I saw. He didn't see it as he was driving. It took me two days to realize I just saw a bigfoot. I think I was in shock about what I had seen.
