Account
The witness and a relative were camping on a rural forested property and getting ready for bed when they heard a long harsh yowl close to the campsite and heard something moving. When the witness shone a flashlight toward the sound, it stopped and seemed to move away without being seen. No physical evidence was found, and the sound was provisionally dismissed as a coyote although the witness doubts that explanation.
