You better believe it tones. Then they have to make up BEARS because the state does not have any.
Suck to boot.:D:D

HAVE YOU GUYS SEEN MONSTER QUEST, Episode: Lions in the Backyard

IT COMES ON THE HISTORY CHANNEL AND IT IS VERY EYE OPENING. THEY SHOWED JAGUARS IN NORTH AMERICA AND HOW THEY ARE MOVING OUT INTO THE NATION. THEY EVEN SHOW SOME EVIDENCE HERE IN WV OF THEM. I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WASA RUMOR. YOU GUYS SHOULD CHECK IT OUT IF IT COMES BACK ON.

Cougars are pretty much spread all over the U.S.
Not a shock at all that they have them in Chicago.
We have lots of them and Bears in Oklahoma.

I have seen Cougars in the wild in Southern IL. They are few and far between, hardly an everyday happening.

Maybe one was on the Northern fringe of his range. Well you can't go any further North in IL.;)

I live about an hour from Dan, and we have reports of cougars every year in the newspaper, but no solid evidence to back it up. I believe there are a few around southern IL.

BTW, was anyone else expecting this story to be about a 45 year old woman that was targeting college guys?[8D]:D

Cops in general are afraid of just about everything so I'm not surprised they were so scared thatthey killed the cat out of cowardly fear. As hunters we know that surrounding and baying up the cat would have been enough until a biologist was dispatched to tranquilize the animal.
