Several bow hunters hear an unusual loud scream while hunting elk

September 1993 Valley County, Idaho

Account

A group archery hunting for elk heard elk bugling and then an extremely loud scream from across the valley. The witness described it as a roar trailing into a high-pitched scream and said it was not a cougar or elk. The group had hunted the area often and had never heard anything like it, and they encountered nothing further.
