I always find it amazing with the hundreds of thousands of trail cameras out in the woods that nobody has a verified picture of a mountain lion on it. Every other animal KNOWN to be in the northeast except the mysterious mountain lion. Unfortunately it takes more than my uncle has a pic or I know I saw what I saw to prove it.
Mountain lions ambush their prey.Most cameras are set up on trails that deer travel that is more open.How many bears and bobcats have actually been caught on cameras? Consider the bear and bobcat population in these eastern states,You would think everyone would of got one on film.Handful of mountain lions versus 1000sand thousandsof bears and bobcats.How many here have actually got a bobcat or bear on their trail camera compared to who hasn't? That doesn't prove they are not here.
