Loud, unseen animal torments deer hunter two days in a row

Vocalization in Texas

The witness and his son camped six miles down the Lone Star Trail despite warnings.

He knelt and put his shotgun in its midsection but did not fire when it backed off, then it screamed, circled the camp throwing trees, iron-ore rocks and dirt while they kept a bonfire burning until early morning.
