In September 2020 the husband was operating a rented excavator in a shed when he heard loud reverberating animal whoops estimated 100-150 yards away, with a second more distant answer. He brought his wife outside to listen. She heard repeated sets of whoop-like primate calls, imitated them and heard brief responses before the sounds stopped.
Hiker describes possible vocalizations and rocks thrown at a remote lake in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness
The witness camped overnight near a lake while on a solo backpacking trip with a dog. After dark the dog growled intermittently and the witness heard paired screams, rock sounds, and repeated hooting exchanges across the valley. Around 2 a.m. rocks landed in shallow water near the tent, followed by a voice-like sound, and at dawn the dog stared into the woods while the witness packed to leave. The witness reports never seeing any animal or person.
