Elk, elk hunter disturbed by whoop near Astoria
17 September 2012
dusk
Astoria, Clatsop County, Oregon
Account
The witness group was calling elk and getting responses when a whoop-like sound and tree thumping were heard, after which the elk went quiet. The next morning the witness searched the canyon where the sounds came from, found no tracks or sign of recent human presence, and later found the elk about three miles away.
