we control both with badgers.[quote]ORIGINAL: Germ

BADGERS? we don't need no stinking Badgers........ The PA game commission has NOT EVER released any MT Lion to help keep down the yote population, when any game animal grts out of control, or has exceeded it's carring capacity, thats when liberal bag limits come into play. Thats when us hunters are called upon to beat the balls off of a population to bring them back into check. Here in NY years ago a bounty was put on bobcat and fox. I do not have any proof of a game species being controlled by the release ofa largerpreditor..... DFA

Doesn't suprise me. I live in Northwest Nebraska and there is a LOT more Mountain Lions here than game and parks like to admit. They've had laws on the books since roughly 92 when a deer hunter shot one, and it raised a big stink with the urban residents of the state(read Omaha).

I know of one rancher that has a resident mountain lion, that has had several sets of cubs. He's told game and parks about it, and they still claim that there is no definite proof of a breeding population in Nebraska. Maybe they should at least go investigate....
Anyway this story reminded me of a mtn lion that had a tracking collar put on it in the Black Hills of SD and turned up in Oklahoma, near the KS line.

I can confirm this, I hunt in S.E. Oklahoma and I have seen them. Kansas isn't that far away from us, so it is possible that they have some.

Now I know why I dreamed about a mountain lion last night. Even got pics of it on my trail cam.[&:]
