My son ran across one a few weeks ago while riding his MTB less than 2 miles from our house here in SD. We know they're further east in the Ramona area, but there aren't supposed to be any as far west as we are....yet they happen. Heck, one was walking around downtown Oceanside last week! Crazy adaptive animals....and yes, the sound is spine chilling. Heard it once while backpacking at Philmont when I as 15 and still freaks me out.
If you hear or see them...they aren't stalking you!
