Howl in Maine

Years before the 2015 sighting, the witness and his brother stood outside their farmhouse at night listening to something moving through the woods between houses. They heard a loud howl they did not recognize as coyote, fox, or bobcat. They tracked the movement by breaking branches across a road to a power line trail, then heard a second much fainter howl from far away.
