Here we go again. I know from reading that 'panthers' were in NC PA back in the 1800's. Our cabin had an old map of the area showing where these were shot and by who. So why not believe they are coming back? Sproulman - our cabin is up on Hyner Run. As you know that is big country there. Plenty of room for an animal as elusive as a cougar to roam and remain unseen. My only question is now that there are more roads, al be it they are dirt roads, why hasn't someone cut a track duing the winter snow? You would think that one of these critters would cross a road sometime in search of food.
