Possible vocalizations heard by deer hunter in the Chequamegon National Forest

16 November 2004 just after dark Washburn, Bayfield County, Wisconsin 1 witness

Account

The witness was bowhunting from a treestand just after dark when he heard several loud howls followed by a scream from several hundred yards down the valley. Unable to recognize the sounds despite extensive hunting experience, he quickly left the tree and took a logging road by ATV about 3.5 miles back to camp.
