Was that picture taken in the east? Every year, there seem to be more
and more sightings. Enough that I'm starting to wonder if they aren't
making a return. I personally know someone who swears he has seen one
here in NJ. He's a pretty reliable type, but . . . I haven't seen any
confirmations.
There have been confirmed sightings in my woods and around the
neighboring farms.

They are mountain lions - not cougars. Confirmed by professional
trackers.

Fisher cats are also making a huge come back in this area.

What is the difference between an mountain lion and a cougar?

They are all the same animal, just different names used in different areas
of the US.

Exactly.

Kind of like hurricanes and typhoons.
