That's been basically my point all along and many others might I add. No one can certainly say they can garuantee there are or there are not mt. lions in the state of PA and those who think they cannot exist are fooling themselves. The biggest questioned posed all along is, why not? They certainly can wonder in from almost anywhere. Are they established, probably not, are they breeding, perhaps, perhaps not. Have they been sighted? I believe they have be it they migrated through, some released/escaped animal from somewhere...who knows unless it was captured and studied. Are they planted by the PGC or some insurance company....this I'm not sure I can believe but then again, our PGC has been so honest with us up to this point.

I stand firm that they certainly can exist in this state, we have food, water and cover.....when humans can get lost in our forests, cats can certainly exist without notice.
