Default RE: Mountian Lions in Ohio

ORIGINAL: mondoman86

I hunt in coshocton, and a guy on the farm next the one I hunt killed a mountain lion with his gun. He shot it when it was going into a big cave overhang. He went to get it after he shot it, and there were 3 babies, well not babies but young ones probably a couple months old right there where he shot her. He called the game warden, and he got a helluva ticket for shooting it. They said it would have been different if it was attacking him or something. Then after this My step dad started telling me stories about seeing what he called black panthers all the time when he use to hunt! lol
Not a protected species in Ohio. What law did he break? This surely would have made regional if not national news. It always gets deep in the cougar/panther threads.
