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. Tom, If you are talking about seeing a mountain lion (also known as a cougar, puma, catamount, panther and other names) it is only native in the western area of the US and Florida in the east. If it was seen in the NE it must have escaped from captivity. I've got the god damned picture sitting right on my god damned wall of the god damned mountain liion walking through the god damned woods of my god damned property taken by a god damned professional god damned tracker who told me that this isn't the only god damned mountain god damned lion in New England and that this is a god damned mountain lion and not a god damned cougar. Damn it. :) Might be best if you deep six Waylon Smithers...your overall welfare will be the better for it! Smithers is easy. He wants to post here, but has nothing original to say. So he uses a search engine to find some "nugget" that might be relevant to a discussion and then posts it as if it came from his own knowledge base. That's one, but only one, of the reasons I deep-sixed him eons ago. My wife was out working in the "edge of the primeval forest" part of her planting areas yesterday, and was startled by a "huge" rustling in the large wild bushes and trees about 10 feet away from where she was digging. She never saw the critter, but says the fuss was too large to be one of the neighborhood raccoons, and besides, they are too stealthy. There actually have been reports of small bears in our neck of the woods, so to speak, but I have no idea what it was, either. There aren't any feral dogs around here. No chance on running into a protective mother bear this time of year?? I hope not. |
