Two hunters describe vocalizations, stalking, rock-throwing, near Elbe

19 November 2008 6:30am Elbe, Pierce County, Washington 2 witnesses

Account

Two hunters parked before sunrise in fog to hunt heard whooping and tongue-clicking calls from the treeline and heard the caller circle them in the woods. A thud was heard and felt on the road and a boulder that had not been there when they drove in was found in the road. They later heard a very large animal moving away breaking branches, found no sign after sunrise, and left to hunt elsewhere.
