We have them around Kalamazoo / Plainwell. I've had a cub in my backyard a couple of years. Numerous hunters have seen them around the last few years. There reproducing to. The DNR are finally saying that there might be a couple that migrate.
Truth in the matter the DNR released 8-12 just south of Kalamazoo a few years ago. It's not a well kept secret in southern west michigan.

It's a hoax! I believe it was really killed in Arizona.

I don"t know if I belive it"s from Arizonia, cats down there are small, just like everything else,coyotes, fox, and deer. That cat is from up north, where it"s cold, maybe not Wi., but somewhere cold.
