Account
The witness and a companion were hiking back to their car after visiting a mine. After hearing a nearby gunshot followed by silence, they left the road for a parallel route. Minutes later both heard a loud, primal-sounding drawn-out yell they felt could not be human. They quickened their pace to the car with nothing else seen or heard.
