ya Charlie I take COUGARS very serious, especially the folks I have talked to with very close, dangerous encounters! I had one at 6:45 p.m. in my horse pasture, sneaking along the fence line, which by the way my fence was down and horses were out! Not only do these horses have a large value, they are my friends & family!! They have taken good care of me & I in turn do the same for them! No I don't have a sense of humor when it comes to a cougar I am well aware of what they are capable of, and they have changed life on my horse farm! I have to friends who have been on horse back and met a cougar on the trail up a tree, the horses spooked and they got away safley (this time) Its ok you think it is funny and you don't believe they are here, but you really should do some research, read the Washingtonpost, today............go to the Cougar network, just take a peek, let me know what you think. This area, Albany & Greene County is having a major problem with them.
I think I asked you before are you with the DEC?

Just couldn't help but check out the thread again eh? Did you check out some of my fish stories in the fishing forum? I even have pictures.
You know what you take life a little too seriously.
Here's a picture of a Cougar my pet ferret put up a tree recently.
He as released into the area by the DEC. Found out from my uncle 's neighbor who has a half brother that knows a guy related to the Aunt of the DEC guy that actually released. He had a mask on when I interviewed him and he smelled kinda like an alien.
