Jake and Bryan Nelson reportedly fired a .30-30 rifle at a large dog-like animal from roughly 75 feet and believed at least three rounds struck it. Jake described a whimper, little apparent reaction, and a roughly twenty-five-foot trail of unusually thick, very dark, foul-smelling blood before the animal disappeared into a ravine.
