Did I Encounter a CLOAKED BIGFOOT?

A man living near Redding, California, heard noises coming from outside his trailer one night. He couldn't see anything even though there was plenty of light, but the noises were very close.

The following account was forwarded to me:

"I was living in a travel trailer for a time on my sister's property, about 3 acres or so, circa the Summer of 2019. The house was in the front, on half the property, and I was in the 'wild lands' back field behind the backyard. This was near Redding, California, and the Sacramento River, only several blocks away, basically in the "country" (and county) outside of town, but quite a few residences up and down the streets around the area on big lots.

I don't remember what made me open the door and stick my head out to look around one late evening, but something caused me to do it. Maybe some noise.

As I was looking around, I heard what sounded like several very slow footsteps in dry brush, going 'Crack.' 'Snap.' 'Crack.' Like someone was walking away slowly, kind of being stealthy. I then realized it was RIGHT THERE, about 15 feet away, maybe on this side of the 'see-thru' wire fence, but it could have been right on the other side of the neighbor's property back section.

So I was looking, waiting to see some animal wildlife or something, but there was NOTHING. It was dark, but I had my outside trailer light on and there was some good moonlight. If there was something there, I should have been able to see it.

Then I heard "someone" run off into the backfield. It had to be a VERY large (if not HUGE), heavy animal, like a horse. It was "BUMP! BUMP! BUMP! BUMP!" I was surprised it didn't shake the ground or trailer. But not a 4-legged horse-like clippity-clop, it was an obvious two-legged run, probably with a very long stride.

And then it was gone. But I saw NOTHING like it was invisible.

I went back in and locked my door and nothing else happened. I looked around the next day for some footprints but didn't find any.

I can only think that it must have been a Bigfoot. Is it possible that it was cloaked or invisible?" E
