Out in the woods and fields, there are sounds you might hear and not recognize but to which you'll never give a second thought.

The bobcat's mating call is not one of those. This bobcat call is one often described as sounding like a woman screaming or moaning in agony. It's not often heard by humans, but trust me, if you hear it, you probably won't disregard it. Hear the bobcat's wail and you may or may not recognize it for what it is.

Regardless, it will capture your attention. It's too creepy to ignore. If you don't know what's making that sound, you might be inclined to summon authorities or at the very least just go home right away.
