well about some time back 12 years ago was hunting PA. late BP season around Tuckanock area I think it is 3C area and seen a cougar on the trail of a small doe,funny I give credit to that little doe she did outwit the cat and crossed my flintlock sight 3 times that day
I did pass on her on the late sundown shot I think she deserved a chance to live.
I will say last year (winter) in the Hancock area) we caught a large cat on the deck of by buddies property) 125 lbs easy.
