maybe they do leave tracks
maybe they move out of the rugged areas in winter if food is better elsewhere
maybe do to weather, people are not in woods or on roads as much as in june/dec

i dont know but i know you will certainly have answer,NO COUGARS EXIST.

that douge, is where you are WRONG.sad you never saw COUGAR ,most i know that are hunters, have seen one..
