Great article and a very interesting subject. I was immediately curious when I read “..like human voices..” due to this phenomenon being associated with unknown cryptid animals which inhabit remote locations often having large bodies of water. It’s a good fit for a cryptozoological explanation imv. See the hair analysis of the Sumatran Orang Pendek for further information.
lol tailor.. I find it curious that you honed in on "like human voices" when there was also "the ringing of telegraph wires or the humming of a swarm of bees", "a rather indefinite, reverberating sound, characterized by a slight metallic resonance", “harp-like”, and "a curious sound, between a whistle and a hoarse whine"... That dang hyrax of yours seems to be able to mimic every living and dead animal on the planet as well as every supernatural phenomena and every natural and apparently manmade inanimate object.
Yes, I am a cynical and jaded jacknape. I try to see all three sides of the coin- do you?
