What's the most bone-chilling sound you've heard in nature?

It's a tie, for me, between a tornado and a pack of wolves howling.

1. The tornado was approaching our home, where we had taken cover in the hallway. It destroyed our home and killed my neighbors.

2. I was at the gate of a national park at 5am, waiting for the park to open. It was still completely dark outside, and I was sitting at a nearby picnic table with some other people. The wolves were very close when they started up.

@SW-User There are a lot on YouTube. Search "trumpet sounds in the sky" or something similar. They're from all over the world. You might want to be sitting down when you watch one.

@SW-User It's happened on multiple occasions.

For me, it was being out in the Nevada desert and hearing nothing. No cars, no planes, no people, no animals. Just... utter silence. It was really unnerving.

@FaeLuna That place makes me think of Area 51, aliens, small businesses capitalizing on aliens, and the testing of nuclear bombs.

@FaeLuna no wind sounds?
FaeLuna · 31-35, F
@iamnikki There was an occasional gust of wind, but on that particular day the winds were mostly calm.

Several camping stories
Bobcat 20 ft in the woods growled, lighting struck close and zap sound boom/instant thunder in the bluffs vibrated my whole body, the 80+ mph straight line windstorm 100 yr old trees falling running for shelter.

@Starcrossed Remind me to never go camping with you. 😄

@ArtyFischel 🤷‍♀️

Tornado that went over the house. I was hiding in the linen closet in the hallway, it sounded like a train up in the sky passing over.
Rattlesnake next to the car when it overheated in the desert. My passenger side window wouldn’t roll down very far & I opened the door to get some air on me, closed it really quick after I heard the rattlesnake.

Last year, in the early morning, I heard the death scream of a rabbit. It echoed through the trees. It was most definately chilling.

@ArtyFischel I feel certain it was a fox. They are plentiful too. I reckon they keep the balance.
Although, there is a pack of coyotes around, but I usually only hear them in the distance.

@Carla Foxes can sound like a screaming woman. You'll think La Llorona is nearby.

@ArtyFischel as do rabbits.

The howling of a coyote, right down the street.

@ArtyFischel isn't that a little scary??
ArtyFischel · 31-35, M
@FaeLuna I've been surrounded by a pack of coyotes in the woods, and they showed little interest in me.
ArtyFischel · 31-35, M
@Indy74 If they hear me, they take off. I have a security camera on my porch, and I get notifications all night. 😄
the sound of a man's crushed body failing to bring oxygen into the body.

Tree cracking before it's going to fall
ArtyFischel · 31-35, M
@Butterflykisses24 Yes, especially when you hear it while sitting in the woods.

trees falling after an ice storm
ArtyFischel · 31-35, M
@tiggerandariel13 I don't think I've ever heard it. We don't get much snow and ice here. My wife was from Michigan, and she told me stories about the Great Lakes. She lived about 50 miles from the water, and she could hear ice breaking at night.
