This event is described inside another report — Vocalizations recorded and possible footprint found near Sugar Creek. It is catalogued separately because it is a different occasion, not a duplicate.
Account
Late at night the witness heard heavy steps in twigs, called out and heard a whoo-oo reply, then distant coyotes and nearby high-pitched child-like chatter, while the dog froze.
