DISQUS

Actually while this may be a "way-cool" predator, and it is, it is probably the one I least want to meet while in the woods. (Second only to a human.) This is the one that is not going to just walk away. Gorgeous, smart, athletic, definately way-cool, but probably the only justification for "packin'" in the western national parks.

About 8 years ago I was working in Contoocook and driving up Route 89 around 6:00 every morning. This one morning in the early fall I was at the point on 89 just before the Turkey Pond bridge when two mountain lions, one larger than the other, bounded accross the highway from south to north and disappeared in the woods. I call Fish and Game but they gave me the usual irritating comment that "you must have seen a large cat or a bobcat". But anyone who has seen a mountain lion there is no damn way you're going to mistake anything else for them. For one thing the color is unique and there is nothing even close to it in NH. It only took those two cats 7 or 8 bounds to clear the entire distance across the highway including jumping the obstruction fence in the middle of the divider. I have set next to a "tame" cougar and even scratched her head so I can recognize one when I see one.

I've created a blog, nhmountainlion.wordpress.com, as a place for people to post reports about sightings. I'll try to follow up on those in the greater Monadnock area, and provide information on what I find. JR

I think A trending topic doesn't sends us an uncessary email alert... it might spam our timeline but then its us who choose what constitutes our timeline.

It's true that mountain lions are one of the most beautiful predators in the world. I would hate to have to deal with one, even if my life depended on it.
