It would be like that mountain lion that got hit on the road in CT -- they would just claim that it was a privately owned pet that got loose.

I've seen one stuffed before...then my internet got shut off
Also, I grew up in California, a guy down the street from me had one "as a pet" in his backyard.
I lived in California for 2 1/2 years and trust me they are not "pets". If you ever spoke to someone who became the "hunted" as opposed to the hunter you would know exactly what I mean and I wish I didn't know. Cats, big and small are hunters and the big ones will hunt anything they feel they can kill and eat
No argument there. http://www.angelfire.com/co/KlueLass/lions/peterson.htm
They are predators and we look like food.

Is it weird that when I clicked on this link, I expected to see a picture of a good looking 50something year old???
Thank God for 44 magnums...........
Mountain lions aren't that tough. You don't need a .44 for one.
9mm right? I heard they're good for bear![[laugh]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/012.gif "Laugh [laugh]")
Bears are a lot tougher than mountain lions.

If it was film then the image was scanned. The image seems rather pixelated and is likely not a high quality scan.
Having said that if the guy has had problems with F&G he might be wanting to eff with them too.

Fish & Game admits they are in Canada just over the border from NH, but they are not in NH yet. Those cougars must know where the border is....
No visas, they get stopped by Customs.
Sounds reasonable until you turn around and see one 10 feet from you.......let me know how you feel after you have been stalked by one

The title said Cougar, not Triple Cougar.![[grin]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/041.gif "Grin [grin]")
Thought that was a Silver Fox. I'm creeping into Manther territory.

I lived there for 18, and you'll get no argument from me. I used to go watch him in it's pen in the hopes that it would finally turn on him and eat his arm, but it never happened, sadly. If they ever successfully domesticate the cheetah, I'd be interested, but even if it were 1/5th it's size, I'd be leery of one. Wild animals are wild for a reason.

So when will the democrats be registering them to vote?

I'd rather have my .45 with 8+1 than a 6-shot .44 in that situation. YMMV.

This guy knew he needed atleast a 35mm.
Cheetah's have been tamed -- not that I think it is a very good idea, mind you. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheetah#Taming

The DNA from the cats in NH (and one in MA) has consistently shown that these are captive cats that people released.
Personally I think it would cool to see them come back and eat some deer, but I think fish and game position is reasonable at this point.
