Sproul,I don't know what you read but I didn't read anything that stated many DCNR employees are seeing cougars.I know one guy claimed to have seen a mountain lion kill a buck but it was later confirmed to be a bobcat.Being an experienced outdoorsman or hunter doesn't credibility to these sightings because very few peoplePennsylvanians have any experience seeing mountain lions or bobcats.

If all these people have been seeing them recently,there existence should be extremely easy to prove with all the snow we've had this winter.What's up with that?If they truly existed in Pa and people have recently seen them,the evidence would be indisputable.

I don't feel that people are very good at judging the weight of animals,especially one's they've never seen before.Hell,that's obvious from all the 180lb spikes they used to put in the Courier expres.
