Learn something new everyday. This may be common knowledge to hunters, hikers and campers, but I did not know this. We often hear that BF whistle to one another, but maybe this is another explanation. However, I'm sure Bill is familiar with the story of Louisiana resident (I can't think of his name at the moment, but it's a well known story) who heard BFs whistle to one another while in a tree stand. A deer runs up and lays down nearly under his feet. He is basically chased out of the woods by 2 bigfoot creatures and he had witnessed/heard them whistle to each other. At any rate, this is something I had no idea was a thing. tejonconservancy.blogspot.com/2015/01/teton-tuesday-cougar-whistling.html |

I only started getting interested when I had my first encounter back in early November. I can tell you that every hunter that I know would have shot any creature that moved in on them though, that's for sure. And yea, I never heard that they whistle as a form of communication either. But then I am new to all this. But it makes sense. If they exist then they have to be smart enough to not get caught so they must have a form of communication. If in the 1990s Edi Amin taught chimps to fight with machetes (and they likewise taught other chimps to do the same) then I guess anything is possible. |

That's pretty scary. I have heard the rumors of BF whistling, but did not know cougars were capable of it. Here's the old story I was talking about. His name is Mike Wooley and it took place in Louisiana a long time ago.

I remember the Mike Wooley story. I rank Mikes story as one of the scariest you'll ever hear but I believe he now runs around with either Bob Garrett's bunch or the Bigfoot Outlaws. I have a hard time warming up to either research group. Now I have never been out in the field with them but they have a lot of dramatic encounters and never have any photographic evidence to support all these encounters. So I have to give them high marks for entertainment but I can't believe everything that comes out of their podcasts.

I meant to say before getting side tracked by Mike Wooley on the last trip to Long Pool we had what we thought were fox calls and coyote howls along with owl hoots. Then something just outside the camp made all three calls in one long breath.
