Doesn't suprise me. I live in Northwest Nebraska and there is a LOT more Mountain Lions here than game and parks like to admit. They've had laws on the books since roughly 92 when a deer hunter shot one, and it raised a big stink with the urban residents of the state(read Omaha).
I know of one rancher that has a resident mountain lion, that has had several sets of cubs. He's told game and parks about it, and they still claim that there is no definite proof of a breeding population in Nebraska. Maybe they should at least go investigate....
Anyway this story reminded me of a mtn lion that had a tracking collar put on it in the Black Hills of SD and turned up in Oklahoma, near the KS line.
