Ferocious nature sounds

Onkel Neal · 04-16-12, 10:13 PM

My daughter kept complaining that there were some weird sounds coming from the backyard. I ignored it, then she recorded the sounds through the kitchen window.

Nikki McBee probably knows what I did next.

Anyone able to ID the sounds??

Nasty sounds, I'm intrigued, possums here sound horrid, like a throat being cut!!

I have very good hearing, but the upper registers seem to be going. All I hear is heavy breathing.

It went something like this?

Were it coming from a distance I would say maybe a wild pig, but if you are sure it was in your backyard more likely a racoon. They can make some really funky sounds.

I was just thinking it sounds like either raccoons or a skunks growling and hissing. Probably a territorial squabble over rights to the garbage cans.

Went outdoors wearing slippers, boxers, subsim T-shirt and Subsim Cap armed with a rolled up newspaper waving it above your head shouting ''GET OF MY LAWN!''?

If I didn't know better I'd say you had koala's in your yard.

So did you run away like a girl?

Racoons can sound like that when fighting over food or mating rights. Probably your best bet.

Shucks, a BB gun shuts em right up. Just one or two pump required. No need to kill 'em less'n you wanna.

Koalas smurfing with Neal's pepper plants?
