My husband were up late by our firepit talking my husband an avid
hunter all of his life and my self were talking at 4 in the morning and all of the sudden in the mountains in the distance we started to hear sounds that us native to the mountains have never heard before and then the sounds started responding to each other it sounded likee a deep throated screeching howl, it was not a coyote it was nothing we have ever heard before, My husband also works nights and has heard the sounds before around the similar time that night made a believer out of us for sure the sounds we heard that night carried on for about a half hour back and forth between the mountains it
