Account
Two people were spotlighting deer in a wildlife management area in central Florida around 2 a.m. for bow-season scouting. They observed a pair of eyes estimated about 7 to 8 feet off the ground and about a foot apart from roughly 150 feet away. As they left they heard an extremely loud piercing scream and drove away quickly without later searching for sign.
