A strange story

I have a strange story to tell, and I’m hoping to get some answers. Has anyone else seen a Yeti in the Granite Belt? It is indeed spooky to see one. A huge human like creature that looked like a short haired Chewbacca jumped our cattle gate and knocked it off its hinges. It left some footprints that looked like elephant printed with large pairs of human like toes spread on either side of the rounded print. This is the third time we’ve seen such a thing on the property over several years. One of them was over two metres tall and another was even taller. Anyone know anything?
