Vocalization in California
Account
The guest and a companion had finished gillnet fishing for salmon on family property along the Klamath River and were sitting in the truck with doors open on a foggy night. They heard loud deep guttural vocalizations from across the river, followed by a similar answering call from upriver. Both men froze in primal fear; the guest reached for his rifle and turned on the truck lights but could see nothing through the fog. He later compared the sounds to published vocalizations and found them identical.
