Two men report powerful vocalizations behind neighborhood

Two people talking in a residential driveway at night heard an extremely loud, deep howl/growl/moan echo across the valley three times over about one to two minutes. Dogs in the area barked and the witness's dog then shivered and stared toward the hill behind the house before retreating to its doghouse. The witnesses felt frightened and said the sound was unlike known local wildlife. No source was seen and no further sounds were heard that night.

Man Hears Evening Vocals in Prior Sighting Area

Late at night the witness heard loud, complex bark- and growl-like vocalizations coming from a ravine near the house. The sounds were described as louder and more structured than dogs, coyotes, or other familiar animals, and local dogs began barking during the episode. An attempted audio recording failed, and the sounds eventually stopped. The next day the witness found trampled vegetation, a coyote carcass, tarp pieces, a dog dish, and scat near the estimated sound source.

They described it as 7 to 8 feet tall, heavily built with very long arms, and insisted it never dropped to all fours like a bear.

He returned the next day to photograph suspected footprints and hair found on a limb.

Army personnel hear scream in the woods outside of Fort Lewis

Two personnel on guard duty at an ammo holding area heard branch-breaking noises from dense trees about 300 meters beyond the security lights. They initially dismissed the noises as possibly caused by other soldiers. A high-pitched scream, holler or yell then came from the same dark area with no visual contact, prompting them to retreat to a vehicle and [name withheld]. The reporter suggested the vocalization matched what they had been told was Bigfoot.
