Re: [Felvtalk] Cougars
We had a mountain lion sighting(people and a photo taken) in Greenwich, CT a few months ago...then, one was found dead, hit by a car - poor thing made it all the way here in all these month, and got killed by a car. -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of Lorrie Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2011 7:47 AM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Cougars That would be wonderful to see.

Re: [Felvtalk] Cougars
We have them too. I'm in Santa Rosa, Ca. about an hour north of San Francisco. It's a BIG metropolitan area, but because of development and the creeks in the area that allow cover, cougars have been spotted in people's back yards. I worry, but not for the people -- for the cougars. I hate the thought of someone shooting such a magnificent animal that is clearly in stress or it wouldn't be around a stinking town. I imagine they are eating possums, as they are everywhere, thanks to some nitwit who imported them from Texas or someplace for sport hunting.
