Just for the record, I don't hunt anymore.

All fish catch and release. I have my reasons but that's my choice and opinion.

Tree hugger vegitarian pacifist .... definitely not, I'm impartial there, everything looks good in my crosshairs.

although I really really miss rotiseree marinated grouse. Wonder if there are any other grouse bow hunters out there. You guys want a challenge.....try that.

does the idea of big cats keep me closer to the truck.......I mean come on already, get real. Ya it does and I got all my windows boarded up like I live in florida preparing for a huricane. I also sit on my roof in fatiges and spotting scopes keeping an eye out for the ATF and FBI too. sorry couldn't resist

truck hugger ..... hehehe, why drive a truck when you can play in a jeep.

just trying to bring to light that the possibility does exist and tried to organize some links to valid acredited info for you people to look up and judge for yourselves.

I mean look at all the cougar threads just in the northeast section alone, there mostly full of opinions hearsay and hogwash. Heaven forbid if someone took it upon themselves to actually give a $**t and make some valid info available free for viewing.

And for those that may have seen or have evidence ........ you might want to contact anyone at the ECN in the above link.

If anyone comes up with samples(scat hair ), they can send it to the ECN as they have access to and capabilities to DNA test. You yourself will not have to pay anything but the shipping to get it there.

If you guys want to accuse me of giving a crap and trying to make people aware..........guilty as charged. That's all the initial post is about.

The info is there if you want to look it up.......... or not, your choice but the info should be read before judged and commented on. the ECN organization and website is probably the most credible as far as the information goes.

I really like the pending status of the michagin UP investigation. for them to state "pending" means there is some good hard evidence they are following up on.
