Multiple incidents around river slough south of Belleville

1 December 2007 around one in the morning Belleville, Yell County, Arkansas 2 witnesses

Account

Two companions were camping by a slough around 1 a.m. when loud whooping and moaning calls were heard from about 30 feet behind them and then repeated louder and closer. Their small dog cowered in the tent and stayed silent. They fled in their vehicle leaving gear behind, and the next day found the tent open, food missing, bedding disturbed, and a large unidentified footprint nearby.
