Been noticing this too and honestly it's been on my mind for weeks. There's something about the Great Lakes region that seems to act almost like a corridor for these things, like the geography itself funnels activity somehow. I'm out here in the Pacific Northwest where we've got our own weirdness to deal with, but I've been following the Great Lakes reports closely and the clustering this year is hard to ignore.
What's striking me is how many of the witnesses are describing the same posture - that low, aggressive crouch before it stands upright. That detail keeps showing up independently in reports from people who clearly haven't talked to each other.
Anyone cross-referencing these with lunar cycles or seasonal migration patterns for deer populations? I've seen a possible connection in bigfoot research that might apply here too. Would love to see someone put together a proper map of the 2024 sightings if they havent already.
