“If you didn’t know what a bobcat can sound like, you might have been inclined to call 911 upon hearing these sounds,” wrote @snakeman1 in a YouTube video sharing trail-cam footage of a bobcat walking around his property and making noises. Some of the noises sound like other-worldly growls and “screams.” Three different trail cameras caught the symphony of creepy bobcat sounds as the animal explored the property.

Snakeman1 says on this day (a spring day from 2022), “the bobcat activity in my woods seemed to crescendo as three different cameras picked up good video and audio.” The YouTube video is about 2.5 minutes long, and some of the best/weirdest sounds are toward the end.
