A listener writes “I am from South Texas near Corpus Christi. My dad works for the oil fields driving a water disposal truck so he goes out on these big leases.
He was telling me how he went out to the ranch one day and he had to drive a couple miles in to the tank. He got out of the truck and he felt like he was being watched. His dog would not come out of the truck. He shook it off and went to connect the hoses to the truck to load the water when he says he got growled at.
My dad was stationed in Ft. Lewis, he grew up in the woods he knows all the animal sounds. We have bobcats and hogs down here but he swears it wasn’t a bobcat or a hog. Down here it’s the hogs you gotta worry about. He again ignored it and went about his business. He says that he saw something big run behind a tree. He just saw the blur not anything to specific but it was enough to make him get out of dodge.
He then told me that his buddy who is a foreman of the ranch told him that they actually had the government come down there to catch this thing because it was killing the livestock and scaring the hands and roughnecks bad. I know it’s not much and you may think it’s too hot in South Texas for them big things but from what I’ve been told there’s lots of boogers down here. I have some more strange occurrences if you’d like for me to tell you about it.”
