This is always a fun subject to debate. I am just hoping that we can all keep this thread more focused that a few in the past. Like the question that has already been brought up. "Why Not?" what would really stop mt lions from being able to survive in PA and NY?

How the got into these places is another question. I would be interested in some of the "logical" explainations of "if" these animals were here - what would stop them from being able to survive with the conditions that exist in NY and in PA?
