...these Cougar stories are pretty common west of the Mississippi...when they began to migrate east; look out....an exploding deer population and plenty of cover means lots of big cats to come...and btw, some reports indicate they’re already anong us in the Appalachian mountains.

"The lion's remains will be sent to a DOW lab in Fort Collins for analysis
in hopes determining what caused the cat's unusual behavior."

Obviously, the cat recognized mistook the dogs for food.

there is a mountain lion roaming around the area where Maryland, Pennsylvania and Delaware meet. Neighbor’s horse has the scars to prove it.

...each year there are more and more sightings east of the Mississippi...the Feds deny the existance of a reproducing Cougar population(except Everglades)but yet the reports continue.

The comments on the website show how demented our society has become. Just like the sick comments after the otter story. People take the side of rabid animals and those that jump an 8 ft fence to attacking humans minding their own business.
