Not myself but multiple friends have, farmers and hunters so I trust that they are not seeing a barn cat.
I did and several other members of my camp, the Bancroft area is one of the places where there have been many historical sightings.Quote:

Took him home and apparently did unspeakable things to him. He was absent from grade 12 classes for two days (couldn't get a sick note from his Ma) and couldn't seem to walk right after. He never spoke of what happened. Not even to this day.
