An account in Pushmataha County, Oklahoma

Driving down the road headed towards Honobia, I topped a hill. I was on a long downhill then a long uphill into a left hand turn. As I came over the hill, in the distance at the top of the next hill, something reddish brown crossed the road. It didn’t appear to go straight across, more at a diagonal from right to left with right being the farthest point left being the closest. When I first picked it up in my sight, because of the coloration, my brain said dog. By the time it was out of sight, I realized it was on two feet. It happened in a few seconds. It went across the highway very fast. I was late to my destination so I just slowed down in the area to look. Once I got to where I was going and unloaded my gear I went back and spent about an hour walking up and down both sides of the highway to see if there were any tracks to indicate what I had seen. While doing this a person stopped to see if I was having trouble and needed assistance. When I told him what I was doing his response was “yeah you get a lot of that here.”
