Possible vocalization east of Ft.Myers
Account
The witness and a teenage helper were hauling cut branches on a relative's wooded property in the late afternoon when they heard three loud, deep whoop-like sounds from a swampy area. The witness could not match the sound to known local wildlife and briefly considered Bigfoot before dismissing it. He later checked whooping crane recordings online and concluded that was not the sound heard.
