Cow crying
I live in Diamond Hill and last night and today early morning I could hear the crying of an Animal. It sounded like a Cow. I actually hear 2. Did anybody hear it or Im going crazy lol. I think the poor thing wasn in labor. It's so hard to listen this animal in pain and notbe able to help it
Bella76 Hi, what you are probably hearing is a Fox looking for a mate, yes its a eerie sound, that sounds like a cow crying. We hear it this time of the year in our woods in Port Murray, believe me the first time I heard it for hours we called fish & game as we thought the same thing like an animal in distress! You can check out the sounds on line fox sounds ours sounds like the vixen fox. It will go on for a few days till he finds his lady!
tj Agree foxes. They like to get their freak on. Helping in this situation would be ill advised.
sackI can still hear it. Im located almost at the bottom of the hill in Diamond Hill and now is 8:48 and is still crying. Poor thing. But it sound like mooing

wally85 Fawns do make a very said crying noise. I would check it out - maybe a fawn is trapped somewhere and needs help. Maybe its mother was killed by a hunter or possible hit by a car.... I don't know but it sounds like it needs help.

honey badger We had a similar noise this morning too coming from the corn field by us. We live up the road from Diamond Hill.
JD4020 Bella76, please make a call. You never know what it could be. I made the huge mistake of waking up in the middle of the night when it was raining and heard a crying sound. It actually kind of sounded like an elderly person whining. Anyway, I ignored it knowing it wasn't human...I was younger and just thought it was some animal outside. Come to find out the next day a smaller dog had drowned in a pool and it was him yelling. I will never again ignore a cry again. I don't care if it is a mistake on my behalf and I'm wrong...better to be safe than sorry. Call police and if it is an animal in distress they will call animal control. Keep us updated.
villani I am in Diamond Hill as well (Brookside) I heard the cow as well. I believe it's the cows from the Hazen farm. To me it sounded like a cow. I heard it last night (around 10 when I took the dogs out) and then again this morning. I wondered if it was a cow giving birth.
LAS Hmm, if you hear it still tonight or tomorrow I would call the cops to say to see what they came up with. Just to make sure they had time to check it out. I personally would follow the direction of the sound and look into it myself. Even if I did have to knock on doors. Would be horrible if it was an animal stuck somewhere crying for help. I have to say about the story I gave above with the dog. It in no way sounded like a dog. No barking or yelping...furthest thing from my mind was that it was a dog. It may sound like a cow to you but could be something else..a dog perhaps, baby animal stuck or hurt. Let us know if you find anything out. Thanks

ianimal Why don't you just go ask farmer Hazen if he is missing a cow instead of call the police? He is a very nice person
Not sure if this has anything to do with what your hearing but just heard on the scanner that the cops are at the squad building with lose cows.
cc Agreed Villani...can't someone follow the sound and find out what's going on? With all the outdoors men and women in the area, I'd think someone would be able to check it out. I'd do it in a heartbeat, but I'm out of town. Hate the thought of some creature suffering.
Martha is the squad building the police station? If so, the auction place is right next door and could be very possible that some cow escaped from there....Stiger st I believe.
I used to work in the building between the auction house and the police station. It was really common to have escaped livestock on the day before, of and/or after the auction. There are probably Guinea Hens roaming around nearby that escaped from there that were never caught. It used to be a riot watching them chase various animals in the parking lot.
Phil D. Diamond Hill is no where near the Hackettstown Police Station/ Squad or auction. Cc did you hear a report of Mansfield's squad building or htown?
Sorry is was Mansfield Police next to the Mansfield Squad building. Not in Hackettstown. They knew who the owners were and let them know that his cows were out.
