What sound do bobcats make?

Answer 1

I'm trying to figure out what noise coyotes make for a book I'm writing. Can you help me? I'm only ten, but I still don't know what noise they make.
Coyotes are in the same group as dogs, and they make many of the same noises. So when a coyote is with her pups, she makes a variety of soft noises, even sometimes a low growl--little coyotes need to learn what not to do and when not to do it! The pups will also practice growling and barking at one another as they play.

Of course, you aren't going to hear these noises in most situations. So the main part of my answer has to do with sounds you would hear from a coyote at a distance.

Most dogs have some sort of "howl." When I was growing up I played the Trumpet in our school band. Whenever I would practice at home our dog would come, sit down right in front of me and make the most awful sounds. My mother thought I was hurting her!

Later I found out that the famous wolf howls and my dog's crying are two versions of the same thing!

There is a "sympathetic response" that gives the dog the urge to howl along with certain types of sounds. It doesn't hurt them, and it isn't a sign that there is anything wrong. It's just one of those things about being a dog.

Coyotes are known for their howls and their yaps. The coyote's howl is very different from that of a wolf, but it functions the same way. When a coyote hears a loud noise of a certain kind, it will have an urge to "join in on the chorus" and start howling as well. If you are outside at night, the air is clear and cold (sound moves better), and you start hearing a coyote pack howl, it can be scary. Especially if there are lots of coyotes in the area, you could even hear one start far away, then a bit later another sounds closer, and then in a bit the howls are coming from all around you!

This isn't a sign that you are in trouble. Coyotes that are hunting don't typically howl. (For one thing, it scares their prey away).

A coyote's howl is often shorter and has a more distinct beginning and end than does a wolf howl. You will often hear yaps or barks before or after a coyote howl. So if you can imagine a full-throated wolf howl, then raise its pitch a bit, toss in some yelps and barks, and generally make them shorter and you've got a coyote howl.

Coyotes also make barking noises sometimes (but this doesn't usually sound like a dog barking). And probably the scariest noise is the low growl when a coyote does see you and doesn't like you being there. One thing to remember is that coyotes usually live and hunt in packs. So if you hear one growling at you, chances are it is not alone. . .

Answer 2

Bobcats are members of the cat family and usually make sounds similar to that of the basic house cat. They can make all types of sounds, including hisses and growls, yowls and purrs, mews, gurgles, etc...

Answer 3

Cougars sometimes voice low-pitched hisses, growls, and purrs, as well as chirps and whistles, many of which are comparable to those of domestic cats. They are also well known for their screams.
