Whoop near Monroe County (2011)
Account
Two friends hunting with pellet guns cut across a wide power line through tall sawgrass as it got dark and heard a whoop-like sound. At the bottom looking up a muddy rocky ridge they saw something stand up and stare, then drop back down. After climbing to the top they heard fast running and crashing brush and hid in the grass, frightened.
