Account

The witness had pitched a tent for the night off a forest road while traveling home and was awake reading inside the tent. He heard a long shriek/howl followed by multiple short bark/grunt sounds lasting about 90 seconds in total. His dog woke for the final seconds and stared into the darkness, and the forest had gone silent just before the calls, which he judged to be about a mile away.
