For more Casual observations?
Now that October is upon us, it’s time to start thinking about another cryptid. This particular cryptid is found in and around pumpkin patches; specifically, the pumpkin patch that he feels is the most sincere. Has anyone spotted this one in recent years? If not, do you think there is enough sincerity left in today’s world where most pumpkin patches are part of the holiday commercialism? I’d like to see this one someday, and maybe this can be the year.

Is this the #@$% that keeps eating my prized pumpkins? If so, then yes, it has been spotted.

Give more details about this extraordinary sighting! 
Spotted walking away from a half-eaten pumpkin. Just as it was getting ripe, too!

I was referring to the Great Pumpkin. How sincere is your pumpkin patch?

I thought that might be true, but didn’t see a rising out part. The pumpkin patch is mixed in with strawberries and corn, but is very sincere in pumpkin production.
Alternately, I like to imagine that aliens (a) are real and (b) are just trying to observe earth wildlife but (c) they are not that good at it.
So, like, weird lights at night? The aliens are trying to attract cool rare mammals, like possibly horses or bears, which they have confused with moths.

I imagine the two creatures look similar from the upper troposphere.
How could the aliens mistake mammals for moths?
You never know.
If they are trying to lure in animals it seems that they lure in plenty of people with smart phone cameras instead.

They classify based on morphology – specifically, the presence of fur.

Sure, why not? They’re aliens, who knows how they would classify things? For all we know they file all earth creatures under “e” for “earth”, or categorize things strictly based on how quickly they move. (I bet it took them a really long time to figure out that humans who are riding in fast trains are still the same species as humans who are sitting staring at screens all day.)

A few years ago, a friend of ours decided to go live wild on his mountain land. Got mistaken for Bigfoot by some campers. No ghillie suit required; just six weeks or so of sleeping rough and eating whatever didn’t run away fast enough.
I haven’t planted pumpkins for several years; my last batch of seeds were apparently cultivated in Halloweentown. We could practically watch the vines grow. Our dog (40kg of Olde English Bulldogge) was conpletely spooked out by them, and she’d give the plants both a wide berth and a side-eye. I’m pretty sure that one of the mail carriers disappeared, too.
