I don't know about mountain lions, but I know we have bob cats, I saw one this past week!

RE: I have a Pic
 

I also live in NY, and have seen mountain lions. At my cousin's house in the capital district they had a problem with one eating horses last year. It took down a few horse from behind and pounced on their hind quarters. when DEC was notified they said that it must have been coyotes but coyotes dont pounce onto horses like that....

if you believe that, i've got a bridge to sell you....

there is no FACT that they are here, in fact there has been exactly 0 amount of evidence collected to date.

most people cant even tell a bobcat from a mountain lion. post a "what kind of animal pic" on here, and if its a bobcat then better than 80% of the people will say it's DEFINETLY a cougar...aside from a lost pet, i'm not buying it.

umm he has a pic of it and dec confirmed it, unless its a bob cat with a mutantly large tail and a lions face, and the dec people dont know what there talking about...
the guy put a 15 lb bag of cat food out and sat infront of a door with a camera and he says its as clear as day...
his friend saw one as well, hes was doing a turkey call and it was stalking towards him.
please dont give false accusations saying theres 0 evidence because theres more than enough.

We have had some here in Missouri. My buddy's friend got one on his game cam. And how could you not tell the difference between a bobcat and a mountain lion. They aren't even close to the same size. I dont by it.

RE: I have a Pic
 

Who cares if there is. I don't. There are all kinds of critters out there in the woods. There's not supposed to be elk in IL but a guy killed one last year. You kill it and post it and I will believe it.

Its definitley possible. There was a mt. lion spotted here in omaha,ne not to long ago. Not to mention the growing number of spottings in the middle of the nebraska.

I hope you are right - but......You'll need to post the picture, and a letter from DEC confirming it as a wild mountain lion - in NY for many of us hereto believe it.

sorry - I tend not to be believe it - but I'll look at evidence.

Nothing against you personally - I hope you don't take it that way.

i'm not accusing anyone of anything but thier eyes playing tricks on them. this topic has been hashed for years, and no evidence has been presented. no droppings, no hair, no tracks, no dna....nada.

and to think that ENCON would release a top of the food chain predator into NY? no way, not buyin that one.

just like the insurance agencies released coyotes here to controll deer poulations........

and encon released rattlesnakes to controll the turkeys......

whats next, grizzly bears to controll the coyotes and mountain lions?

i think one or two could wander through, but in all likelyhood they are lost/released pets.

i'm not saying a cougar could'nt be here, i just think the statement that NY released them is out of hand
thanks
