Delta Discovery 26JUN2013 1960s(?) / 05 / L - Bethel, AK (Area) Legend of runaway boy named Gabriel Fox who transforms into Sasquatch to survive and later abduction by military or US Government. Delta Discovery, 30JAN2013 Additional Information: "Here in the Bethel area, many people's introduction to Hairy Man was through the creature we came to know of as "Gabriel Fox" in the 1960s. It's the story of a young boy who ran away from the Children's Home near Kwethluk and survived in the wilderness by turning into a Hairy Man. But big questions remain: How could a boy turn into a hairy creature that lived in the extreme wild? Was it really Gabriel Fox, and not a young Bigfoot that was starving and raiding fishcamps for food when it was caught? Why did the military and/or the US government say nothing about him after they took him away? And most importantly, why didn't they return him home? ..." http://www.adn. com/alaska-beat/article/bethel-newspaper-rounding-y-k-tales-hairy-man-aka-bigfoot/2013/02/04/ Online (Accessed 04 JAN 2018) 1960 / 01 / S – Ketchikan, AK Sighting from boat, no other details.
