It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. They said in the video that theycouldn'ttell yet if it was wild or an escapee.

They should have known at first glance if it was a pet or wild.
Trust me...nobody wants a pet mountain lion with claws intact.
If it had claws, it was certainly wild.

The cops were too busy doing high-fives to think about any kind of investigation work.
It only took them about 25 or 30 shots to kill it!so WOOHOO!

Did they get it? Whichshooter got their tag on it first?

I think that was the cougar that killed all the deer in PA. The herd should be back up next year.

I can believe 25-30 shots. A couple years ago I hit a deer with my wife's car. I called the PGC the next morning and they gave me a permit # to pick it up. When I got there it was still alive. PGC said to call the local police to have it dispatched. I did. When this 'cowboy' showed up we walked over to the deer and as it was lying there it at a distance of about 10 feet, it took him 5 rounds before he finally hit it in the head. I was about ready to ask him for his Glock so I could kill the deer before he ran out of bullets.
And these guys are supposed to be qualified annually with their handguns and to protect us!! Scary.

Here is another video that actually shows the ML before it was shot.

Bronko22000... I had a similar story as you... the only thing different was that he just unloaded his gun all over the deer... as he was reloading deer still alive... I pointed to the head and said shoot here. What an idiot.
