Account
The witness was hunting with family members in the afternoon when the group noticed a strong odor like wet dog or horse. Shortly after, they all heard a very loud scream from nearby. After the witness's father approached the sound, it was heard again from much farther away within minutes, then a third time from a ridge as they walked back.
