Sasquatch Howls recorded in Cuyahoga National Park

Compare it to the 1994 howl recording from Columbiana County, Ohio

The 2015 recording was obtained by Charlie Page (Ohio BFRO) in northeast Ohio’s Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CVNP) around 11pm in March. There have been sporadic sightings, sounds and track finds near and within this park for decades. It is an amazing, beautiful area but it is not well known outside Ohio. The size of the park is 52 square miles, 50% larger than Manhattan (34 square miles).

Charlie says his sound recorder was within 1000 feet a scenic vista point named Hemlock Point. The white noise in the background is traffic noise from a freeway (I-271) which cuts through the park. The animal howls more than once from basically the same area but seems to face a different direction for each howl. Distant response whoops can be heard in the background at points.

The 1994 recording was obtained by Matt Moneymaker (BFRO founder) 50 miles to the east of the Cuyahoga recording area. Known as the “Ohio Howl” for the past 20 years, this recording has consistently stumped animal sound experts. All scientifc analysis has concluded that it was not a mechanical device nor was it the vocalization of any known animal.
