Hunting party shadowed by footsteps after loud vocalization heard from treeline

The witness waited alone at the bottom of a gully while two companions followed a deer's blood trail. A deep woofing sound came from the nearby treeline, prompting the witness to move to higher ground. After regrouping, the three heard heavy footsteps keeping pace with them as they hiked toward their vehicle, and shouting and gunfire did not stop the sounds before they reached the truck.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
