Strange noises heard in Oklahoma

This encounter occurred on march 2006 in Le Flore County, Oklahoma. Former marine David Anderson and his 12 and 9 year old sons go camping deep in a remote dense forest. While they are getting everything set up for later that night, they hear a strange, unusual call. They didn't really mind it at all. That night when the three people fell asleep they hear branches snapping and they see a huge silhouette of an ape-like creature. David Anderson described it to be taller than his Nissan Pathfinder.
He had weapons with him in the tent but he figured that one shot would not affect the creature too much anyway. A year after the first encounter David Anderson and his kids come back to the exact same camping spot despite their close call. Within 5 minutes of their time there they heard ape grunts but did not see anything in the tent. I'm not sure if they kept on camping.

Bigfoot spotted in Chenango County, Brainbridge New York, 1961

This Bigfoot sighting took place in Chenango County, Brain bridge New York, on a Dairy farm sometime around the may of 1961 at around 1 pm. The person that spotted the creature was Jon Nichols. At the time he was 14 years old and he was left home alone at his farm house. During that time, Nichols was a boy scout so he decided to go camping next to the spring next to his house. As he was walking there he heard noises and thought that it was just a deer coming for some water from the spring. As he got there he spotted a so called "Bigfoot" also known as a Sasquatch.I'm his description he says that the creature had "it's eye reflected a brilliant yellow, and it's coat was shiny black" and "Very broad shoulders, no neck to speak of and it's head was rounded like a human's.""John Nichols"(2009).
He also said that the creature was 6 feet tall and it's face was covered in hair but it's eyes were shining through. Something that I find interesting is that just like the Portage La Prairie sighting, the Bigfoot swayed back and forth and did not move around too much.
