Someone out there on this fine earth has to know what this is! It is cocoon-like; fairly heavy; coarse hair. Found in woods where lady was mushroom hunting! Any guesses?

Hi Karla... (Messaging isn't working again)

Thanks for the update. I know it's no Bigfoot or UFO, but this is the most mysterious object I've been seriously curious about in a long time. Please be sure to post the results of anything new you find out. What other mysteries are you folks in Clarksville keeping under wraps? ;)
