I was hanging out in a park by a river one night with some friends, just grilling and watching the stars, chill night in nature. We heard a sound like a sorority group laughing and walking around near our camp. At first we didn't think too much of it since we were in a public park near a college town.
I got up to grab something out of my truck and saw the glowong eyes in the dark and quickly realized that was not a group of college girls but a pack of coyotes scoping out our food/cooler/us. We packed up the truck and noped out pretty quick after that.
Used to live at a place with a massive coyote population. We got em here, too, but nothing like that. Nightly they'd yip as they ran around our yard, dozens of them. Every single night. You'd sometimes see them like a whirlwind, literally circling the house and making the craziest loud group noise. It didn't last long, as there got to be more human activity at the house (it had been empty for a while, and then occupied by a lone meth head who never went outside) they found other grounds up in the woods. But for the first several weeks we were there it was terrifying to even consider going outside past dusk. If you left something in the car, you just had to wait til morning for it.
Hell even if it's a young girl being murdered, the average channer would only be jealous, and likely safe, who is gonna make two totally separate kills?
He can't ult again for a while, so it's safe for now.
I've heard rabbits being carried off by owls in the night also sounds like a child being murdered
It’s not unusual to have brief hallucinations right before falling asleep. It’s happened to me on occasion. That’s another possible explanation.

Brah! Just enjoy the beauty of all your ancestors sacrificing everything so that you have a bunch of big-ass walls to protect you from scary shit. Life is great* now!

I'm going to bet fox.
Those mofos sound like someone is murdering a 13 yr old girl.
Rabbits sound fucked too...
Coyotes too occasionally...
Or wanton murder. Someone has to be a statistic lol.
Rabbits sounds like screaming babies! Nearly had a heart attack when one got stuck in the spokes of a decorative antique bicycle in the garden and the neighbour's cat was swatting at it. My mom was out there crying, trying to pull it out.
Must awaken something deep in the mammal brain. There was a video of a wildlife cam where a hawk or something grabbed a rabbit which started screaming, and a deer came running and absolutely stomped the life out of the bird.
There really isn't that big of a difference between our brains! Well, apart from them all dying in agony without any real understanding of what it means to die. Like a trillion babies mauling each other to death every hour. Sweet dreams and be happy we are human!

Anon doesn't know what a wild fox mating call sounds like and is a dumb fuck.
Or a Fisher cat.
Fisher cat was the Animal of the day or whatever on pbs kids today. I've seen the same 30 second blurb about them several times. Now I've seen this comment and a lemmy post about the Animal. Real red car syndrome thing happening for me
I saw this post minutes ago, finished reading this thread, then backed out and continued scrolling.
Five posts down I saw a post linking to the Wikipedia article for Fisher cats.
