But I can't see anything. What could it be?
Are you in your haunted house?
Also it's probably a neighbor dog.
I'm not hitting the sauce again, so it's not me.
Yes, I'm in my haunted house, but it's definitely coming from outside. I'm guessing dog, too, but I've never heard a domestic dog sound like this, it's really spooky.
I've heard some surprisingly eerie noises come out of random dogs.
That would be the looters calling to each other
Yeah, that's kind of what I'm afraid of. We do get them in the city from time to time, and I do live pretty close to a large forest preserve. I was driving near it one day, and saw a large coyote trotting along the side of the road. Would they howl in the daytime, though?Quote:

These calls are most often heard at dusk or night, but may sometimes be heard in the day or in the middle of the day.
Apart from the spooky factor, is it a problem?
I'm not sure if it is, for me personally. In some suburbs around here, coyotes have made off with small dogs and such. I don't have any pets right now, so that's not an issue, but is it safe when you have small children? Not sure.Quote:

We get the same problems with foxes in our areas. The suburban ones are becoming bolder by the year.
