Account
In 84 the witness and a companion were night fishing at a lake when they heard dogs barking in sequence around the southwest edge of the gameland. They then heard a loud roar that echoed across the small valley, followed by complete quiet. Both stated they were familiar with Pennsylvania wildlife but had never heard such a noise.
