Audio Evidence and Analysis
June 3 and 4, 2022
Undisclosed location Fayette County, Pennsylvania
Attached you will find the written summary report of the events of June 3 and 4, 2022, the audio evidence captured, and the analysis performed by Joe Perdue, Master Naturalist.
We are not claiming to know what animal was responsible for the audio captured, however, we do welcome anyone to do their own analysis of the audio files and provide their analysis and thoughts.
The audio clips from 6/3 are from what we believe to be a canine, either dog or coyote.
The four audio clips from 6/4/2022 are of an unknown animal. They have been edited to remove most talking and background noise and amplified to allow the listener to hear the howl clearer. It is still advised to utilize headphones when listening for the best results.

Track discovery
August 9, 2020
Mt Pleasant Twp, Westmoreland County
Mt Pleasant Twp, Westmoreland County
On the morning of Sunday August 9, 2020, Members of the PBS were notified by social media of a trackway discovery by a fisherman who was fishing earlier that morning.
While he was setting up to fish on the south bound side of the creek, the fisherman discovered 8 human looking tracks in the muddy creek bank. He took photos of the tracks, and searched the northbound side of the creek and found no further tracks. The fisherman continued to search further downstream and discovered additional tracks. The fisherman discovered 16 tracks in total. The measurements were 11 inches by 4 inches. The stride between tracks varied. But the most common stride size was approximately 38 inches. PBS members Eric Altman and Ricky Churby investigated and were shown the tracks. Measurements were taken and several castings were made. An additional search of both sides of the creek yielded no further tracks than what was already discovered.
Although no one saw the person or creature responsible for leaving the prints, they do fall within the human size and stride range. Unfortunately, we can not conclusively say who or what left the footrprints.
