well its offical, my uncle has been seeing mountain lions for a while now, and no one belived him, he finally got a pic of one,
he called the dec and theysaid they dont exist, he said he got a pic of it and they said it was a bob cat, but than they came to his house and looked at it and confirmed it was a mountain lion.

BARofsoap is correct. I have a neighbor that was awakened by his goats being attacked by a black bear 2 years ago. He shot the bear and wounded it. They called the DEC and the next day they set out to find the bear. While tracking the bear through snow they came across Mtn. Lion tracks. This is in the beginning of the catskills. They reintroduced them to control the coyote population but it is not working. They need to release more mtn lions to reduce the dang coyotes
