Can't find a thing on their site abouta track in Clinton County. Dis find this map on another site. Nothing in pa. The one in ny was a long time ago.
Guess they are having a little trouble getting across the Missisippi

RE: COUGARS ARE HERE
if you read their entire site you will see that in RED sighting and were confirmed by us wildlife .blue was their scientist.
it does show a lot of sighting in NEW YORK,600 as of 1965.
pa was leader with 1400 sighting..that big area in RED in pa. is CLINTON COUNTY.
cant give you much more than what they have, read everything on their site.
sighting here have been quite,not hearing any right now.
but 3 years ago on beech creek rd off rt 144 ,clinton /centre county, boy, a lot of sighting of cougar
from people that know difference from bobcat/cougar.
i just wish that WCO from clearfield would have come out and met with me to take tracks.

They don't leave tracks in muddy or snow covered roads 'cause they're too clever and have learnt theyselfs to leap over such places without leavin' nary a mark. Same reason none have been hit on any of our roads yet...they can glide over such obstacles with one bound.
Might find the odd track in the areas between divided highways, though.

This may be just rumor, but, I've heard that when a cougar needs to cross a road they have a sasquatch carry em across.
