Class B First-hand BFRO #10062

Man Hears Evening Vocals in Prior Sighting Area

18 December 2004 10:30 - 10:50 PM Aberdeen, Grays Harbor County, Washington 1 witness

Account

Late at night the witness heard loud, complex bark- and growl-like vocalizations coming from a ravine near the house. The sounds were described as louder and more structured than dogs, coyotes, or other familiar animals, and local dogs began barking during the episode. An attempted audio recording failed, and the sounds eventually stopped. The next day the witness found trampled vegetation, a coyote carcass, tarp pieces, a dog dish, and scat near the estimated sound source.
