Well I guess that ultimately settles the debate then![:-]
Blah blah blah where's the proof? How many more mountain lion threads could there possibly be?

Mine asks if you would want them.

This is tongue-in-cheek, of course...is my computer monitor the only one that the words TAME, RELEASED and NOT WILD show up on? Theres a huge difference between captive cats and true wild, native mountain lions. It also completely changes the complexion of this silly debate!

Man I'm hearing more stories then ever about tags and micro chips on yotes from either another state's wildlife service or ins agencies.
Anyway here's my take on mountain lions.Two years ago I went to my cabin in March.In the mud was a fresh paw print about the size of a 150-200 pound bear minus the claws.It wasn't a bear print obviously and did not have claws.In the fall we found some strange looking scat we couldn't identify.In spring during turkey season a hunter asked me if I was aware a mountain lion was in the area,claimed he saw it.But with all this proof I still don't believe we have them in PA simply because one was never shot by a camera or gun.You would think it's possible for one to wonder through PA but until I see one I'll figure there aint none.
