I heard this sound three weeks ago. It was a single roar. I was trying to entice a bull to come over to my side of the fence with a few cow calls. And after 5 minutes or so, I heard the bark/roar. I stood, for the better part of an hour, staring at the bull from 200 yards away. Finally, I tried to move to get closer and more aggressive to see if he would come investigate. However, as I was moving closer, I saw a cow that was out of my line of vision before that. She is definitely the reason he didn't come looking. He had seemed interested in my calling before I heard the barking sound. But after I heard it, he pretty much just stood in one spot for 45 minutes. Almost dead still, with the occasional look over his shoulder. This was my best opportunity at a bull that week. Too bad he was 20 yards across the fence on the next property, where I have no permission! He knew I couldn't shoot him!! Just stood broadside for an hour with his tongue out, blowing raspberries at me!!
