A major artery in the throat has been opened by the attack!
You hear whistling"

nope, it's just a random sound several creatures may occasionally make.
Genesis elves whistle all the time, idk about vanilla.

Oh man. That is great. Bite a man's throat out, he whistles at you through his new mouth.

AFAIK capybaras are the only creatures that make sounds in vanilla.

I am often bad at phrasing things - don't hesitate to ask for clarification if something I said doesn't make sense.

All those things happened in one action.

A major artery in the throat has been opened by the attack!'
'You hear wolf whistling'
