The funny thing about this, Mike (and I realize you're not local and wouldn't have this background), is that the only people in this state who haven't know there are cougars here for a long time have been DNR personnel. Get this - they said that most "cougar" sightings are golden retrievers or bobcats. I'm not kidding - a DNR agent actually said that.

We used to see cougars (or tracks)all the time on Boy Scout outings/camping trips.
