I'm really not asking what works for you. I know what I saw. What you think about black panthers means nothing to me. Everybody's experience in the woods is different. I'm not trying to convince you of anything, just relating my story. It's a picture on the internet for pete's sake. Could be dogs, cats, or cardboard cutouts. Sorry to bust your bubble there ace but the U. S. fish and game either doesn't know squat or they don't want you to know the TRUTH. So much for reliable... I depend on what I see in the wild ....NOT what someone TELLS me about the wild..Hahahaha.
Live it up! Doug
