see that color of that cougar in the last picture you posted. thats SAME color i saw at pottersdale,pa. 13 years ago on that cougar i saw and reported to pgc. also picture we have here on the one at pottersdale, pa. is also that color. i call it orangeish .man, does that bring back what i saw years ago. thanks for great info. every bobcat i ever saw had black marks all over, pointed ears. and never that orangeish color.also cougari saw ran different than any bobcat i ever saw.more i think of it, i think bobcat was faster running than the cougar i saw. maybe just me thinking.again, thank you very much for great info.
