Shoot, shovel, and shutup.
Similar to a rancher's solution applied here: Shot; shoveled; attached collar to a log & launced it down the Cheyenne River; shut up.
Best solution, though I haven't figured out how somebody, if anyone, did it: mountain lion ended up in front of a train in Okalahoma, over 600 miles away from 'home' where it had been collared.
So far, game people believe the young male was migrating. Maybe it was; maybe it had help, but is interesting either way. The train is the hard part to figure out.
Easy solution: Put the poisoned carcass of a freshly-killed goat in the penned-in enclosure. Cat comes along and steals the freebie despite your best efforts, i.e. the fence; cat never comes back.
If government says the panther should not be killed then try to trap it and then release it in a politicians office.
See if that changes the government policies.
