TIME: Dusk
LOCATION: Merrimack
County, New Hampshire
TERRAIN: Wooded
OBSERVED: I'd
like to start with over few years I have noticed less &
less deer in the field s at night spot lighting. I don't
hunt but my younger children love to see the deer. We used
to have a joke that the deer in our area could read because
during hunting season you could see almost 30 deer standing
around the NO HUNTING signs at dusk (6years ago) now you
maybe see 3 in the fields. I know we have hunters but not
that much.
Now onto our sighting..we were up in a hotair balloon at dusk I don't know the exact date but the rally is always the first weekend in August. Over looking the woods we saw a family trying to hide/blend in with some huge trees. Everyone in our balloon saw 3 dark hairy creatures seemed to be a mom, maybe a teenager, & father which he seemed to be holding a young one. All at the same time we said "Did you see that"! I picked up my camera to take pictures but the older gentlemen flying the ballon grabbed it from me & said "do you know what will happen to them if this gets out. We have jerk hunters that brag about shooting a 80lb deer nevermind something that is said to be fake. We all made a premiss not to let this out to protect them. They're a family just like mine & if something happened to them because of me or this I would nt be able to live with myself. I wish there was dome kind of protection order because I feel like they are human being with love, feelings, families, & they aren't hurting anyone, just going about their lives. I don't feel right about writing this to you guys, but I've held it inside for over a year with the fear for their lives & the fear of becoming the crazy lady..
