Does lightening strike twice? The residents of the small Yukon community of Teslin will tell you yes - only the "lightening" happens to be a giant sasquatch.
Last year, the CBC reported that Marion Sheldon and Gus Jules were driving down the side of the highway on an all-terrain vehicle on the evening of June 5, 2004, when they saw the fabled creature cross the Alaska highway in two giant steps. The sighting occurred at a construction zone near the Teslin airport. The entire article can be found here,

Today,
WordNetDaily is reporting that Bigfoot has, once again, been sighted in Teslin. This time by nine people who saw the creature pass in front of a house window and then later near an abandoned car. The following are eye witness accounts of the sighting:
"He ran through the backyard, and that's when I seen him. You could see a big, black thing go by, and you couldn't see no head or nothing. So, I figured it was somebody messing around."
"We weren't gonna tell anybody at first 'cause we thought everybody was gonna look at us and say we're all snakin' out or we're crazy. It wasn't too much fun explaining it at first, but once everybody starts believing us, it's not so bad. They wanted to see the track, they wanted to see the pictures, they wanted to see the hair and stuff like that. ... I wouldn't want to run into him in a dark, back alley or anything like that. Geez, it stands over ten feet tall, [it would] probably tear my head off or something."
In an effort to prove that they are not "snakin' out", the witnesses sent a patch of hair to a conservation officer in Whitehorse for DNA identification.
There is no word on how scientists plan to match the patch of hair to the legendary creature.
