One of my Daughters sent me the same pix, which the forwarded e-mail said was in western NY. Then I saw the same pix on another board and Colorado was mentioned as the place seen. Those critters must be exhasusted covering that much territory.
NYS DEC tried to tell me that the one that ran in front of my van at 5 am couldn't be from the wild since NYS doesn't have any mountain lions anymore. Said that it must have been someone's pet that got loose. Then the DEC person proceded to tell me about other sightings of mountain lions around the state.
With all the sightings of a big cat that's not native to here, they must be a popular pet that's tough to keep home


Wasn't that many years ago some in the DEC were saying the same thing about Coyotes in NYS. The folks we pay to watch animals seem to be the last ones to know the animals are here !
Your tax dollars at work !
