Night Panic by Joanna M. Weston

The tent shook as large bodies lumbered outside. Quaking with fear, Sue pulled the sleeping bag over her head. She imagined claws ripping her flesh. She listened to the river and animals that blundered, breathed heavily, moved away. At dawn Sue peered outside and saw fresh cow pies.
