RE: COUGARS ARE HERE
You will start seeing them just as much as you see coyotes soon.They can thrive about anywhere and predation on them is minimal.So watch your back out there guys.

Droptine,
How about posting links to these biologists, the verified photos of NJ cougars and any other proof your research has uncovered. Proof of them in the Catskills here in NY would be interesting as well. Steve |
RE: COUGARS ARE HERE
ORIGINAL: DropTine249 We have them in NJ...Mostly the North-East. But we have seen them as far as Central NJ.... I was doing some research on why we are seeing more and more sightings and obviously the developing of prior rural areas/forests is a major contributor. In NJ, biologists said that our sightings are due to mothers teaching kittens to hunt. They travel vast distances before returning to the catskills for the winter. Pretty interesting. The ones we saw were nowhere near the size of the ones shown on TV, but they were cougars nonetheless. they are moving ,i feel from state to state as you said. we see them in spring/summer and late fall, but it seems that no tracks to much are found in winter. i still feel they move to areas where they want to be in winter. we have 1 cougar that is being heard in hammersly fork area and confirmed tracks. where we have sighting, they disappear ,then reappear in few years. only can mean that cougars are moving a lot more than we think do to food and weather and other cougars. |

A friend sent this to me. The mountain lion was killed east of Altoona and south of State College , Pa. northeast of Raystown Lake between Mt. Union and Huntingdon , Pa. .. One doesn't think about big cats being in this eastern part of the country. Game commissions have denied it for a long time. [/align]  
If its true there is a mount of this cat somewhere.This guy is a Taxidermist. |
