I know Ted, it is always an adventure to go to bed each night, looking eagerly to morning.
Especially when you know you have left Bear and Paul and the rest of the over sexed, hungry
people still up. LOL.

Haven't you learned yet that those who talk about it the most are getting it the least?

In relative terms when one has an insatiable appetite it always too few

Wonder who would win in a fight, a cougar or a pitbull?

Are you serious? The cougar would kick the dog's ass in about ten seconds.

There appears to be no downside to this cougar "problem".

DNA tests link cougar shot in Chicago to Wisconsin, South Dakota
Animal did not have rabies, necropsy shows

By Jeremy Manier

DNA test results show that the cougar police shot April 16 on the North Side of Chicago was the same animal that left blood drops in southern Wisconsin in January, Cook County animal control officials said Wednesday.

The cougar's genes link it to a population from the Black Hills of South Dakota, according to Wisconsin wildlife officials.

In January, a trapper in a Wisconsin town 25 miles from the Illinois border came face-to-face with the cougar in a barn. The animal fled into the woods, and officials confirmed it was a cougar after testing blood it left behind.

The animal apparently continued its journey through North Chicago and Wilmette, where people reported seeing the cougar before it arrived in the big city.

"These findings provide a glimpse into the life of this wild cougar and are critical pieces of a larger puzzle, which for us and other agencies is: where it came from, and how and why it reached an urban area," Dr. Donna Alexander, administrator of the Cook County Department of Animal Control, said in a statement. "Additional testing still being performed will further delineate his genealogy and paint a better picture of his life."

Other experts said they will be interested in what the exam showed about the cougar's eating habits, which would reveal how it sustained itself during the 1,000-mile trip from South Dakota. Wisconsin wildlife officials said they had no complaints about the animal eating domestic pets or livestock there.

The 124-pound cougar's necropsy—the common term for an animal autopsy—showed that it did not have rabies. Specialists are still trying to determine its age by studying wear on its teeth. The necropsy showed that the cougar died from gunshots in its heart and aorta.
