Knocking in Lauderdale County, Mississippi

It has not made a sound for two years. Now it is back, maybe as many as 4 or more. Myself and two of my neighbors have heard it. First I heard near my shot house and all animals got quiet. Now we can hear it on both sides of the road and day time knocks and at howling at night. Last night around 12:30 am it was very active. This has been going for the last couple weeks. Dogs don’t want anything to do with it. There has been two different sounds they make. All we want is answers. They sound like wolves but different. I don’t go hunting before daylight and I come in before dark. When we tell people they just laugh and call us crazy until they hear it.
