Account

The witness and his brother were camping overnight near a river when they heard a loud growl-scream-whistle sound from about 30 feet away in the woods. They quickly lit a campfire and remained at the site for four nights total. They later asked rangers about the sound and checked local animal sounds at home without finding a match.
