I was talking with Janet Anderson yesterday, and she reported hearing the same thing over the weekend! Anyone know anything about what the behavior signifies? Territory? Mate attraction?

Wheezing deer
One night in early June I woke up to a weird noise. Some animal (outside, fortunately) was making a loud, very forced wheezing noise. Kind of like someone forcing all the air out while yelling "HAH". It went on for awhile. I got up to check. It was a lone deer...male? female? I didn't ask. It finally wandered away, but I heard it in the distance for a while.

We have heard some screeching bizarre sounds at night but never this wheezing noise. I left a spotlight near the bed to try to figure out what that other noise is but it never happened again after I got the light!
