Think that "liar", "crazy," and visually impaired were used quite frequently in reference to folks who reported seeing cougars in Iowa, Missouri, and Illinois. Was not much of any supporting proof of the existence of the cats in those states until the day that dead ones started turning up. Not saying that I believe the vast majority of reports coming out of places like Ohio, but given the documented eastward spread of mountain lions over the last couple decades, I'm not going to dismiss all of them either.
