Possible vocalizations heard by bow hunters near Malaga
Account
Four hunters arrived in the early morning hours and hiked along a ridge toward their tree stands while hearing hooting and branch-breaking sounds following them on both sides. They then heard a very loud vocalization described as starting as a growl and turning into a scream nearby. The woods remained silent until late morning, after which they left the area.
