Frankly, I don’t consider cats edible. Ever watch them lick their butts?

So if I were to kill an elk legally in Wyoming, I should resign my political office here in Wisconsin where it is ILLEGAL to kill an elk? Absurd!

Makes me wonder what the hell has happened to this country that I used to know? Not only absurd but, INSANE!

but what is he doing protecting the darned things back in CA?

His job.......He doesn't make the law, his job is to enforce it. In fact, considering the state he works in, I think he has a very healthy attitude towards hunting.....

It’s his eating habits that peg him as strange.

My guess is that he used hounds[Black and Tan] and shot it out of a tree

That's the primary way they bear hunt in northern Michigan.....when I was a kid, my uncles in northern michigan were hardcore bear hunters and had some of the best dogs around.

Guess you’ve never worked on or even visited a cattle ranch. Not trying to be mean, just saying that ALL breeds of cattle are notorious butt-lickers.

Cattle are bigger ~ longer distance to travel.

California has banned the hunting of mountain lions since 1972

If I remember correctly, the voters of California banned mountain lion hunting by referendum in 1992. They also passed a motorcycle helmet law in 1990, and extended the two week waiting period to long guns within the same time frame.

Seeing the writing on the wall, I moved away shortly thereafter (1994).

Yeh, they taste like tuna.

That's what I heard....so I bought a can of tuna...hoping it would taste like mountain lion.

Made a mountain lion casserole with it.

Guess what they said he did not have a tag to kill the cat.

Don't tell me and others that we are wrong and then hide behind another poster and say it's their fault that it turns out it was legal. Newsom, his biggest critic, claiming it was legal, should have set off warning bells in your head that it probably was legal. If his biggest critic had damning evidence, he would have been shouting it from the rooftops.

There is more than one way to do it, but if you're short on time I recommend using a chain saw.

“A cat like that has a range of about 120 square miles. As fat as it is someone has been baiting for the commissioner. His term in office is soon up if he is not fired. He will never get reapproved.”

Are you confused or did you just fall down? As fat as the cat was means it was feeding on Elk and Deer with great abandonment. Mountain Lions have no natural predators except humans. If you get too many of them they decimate the herds. That is why the State of Idaho issues a certain number of hunting tags to keep the numbers in check. Looking at the chart so far this year it appears a lot of the tags will go unfilled.

He didn’t break any laws, but he does seem to have hurt some feelings.
