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.

Cougars, mountain lines and puma's are names for the same animal.

Um...I'm not getting into a whole basskisser style argument and start
going to google and wiki just to prove a point.

I was told by a professional tracker what the differences are and why
and I have no reason to doubt him because he got the pictures and
determined the range of the animal.

You want to argue the point, go argue with him.
