Steve,
I have a question for you about lion vocalizations. About a month ago, I went night fishing along an isolated stretch of a small, local river. About dusk there was a steady parade of turkeys into the heavy timber along the river. Shortly after the sun went down, there was a feline call from back in the timber. It was basically "Meow-uhh, Meow-uhh". Not loud or deep but definitely louder than a house cat. There are no farm places within 3 miles of the location and really no reason for a domestic cat to be in that area anyway.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
