Such beautiful animals. I believe this one was a male, 140 lbs (almost as heavy as me - eep!)

They did a great job of capturing him and releasing him in a wilderness away from humans. Joyce -- With enemies like Dilbert, giant corporations need no friends. - Norman Solomon |

Another one was hit by a car and died in Redmond, WA.

"A global positioning unit attached round the cougar's neck will send twice daily updates about its location, park officials said." I remember how Persia first fought wearing a collar. (All these years later she still sometimes gets rambunctious and manages to take it off over her head.) That cougar looks perfectly content wearing a tracking unit collar Jill |

That cougar looks perfectly content wearing a tracking unit collar And so he should, since his ploy worked so magnificently. "What's that?" you ask? "*What* ploy?" "Those monkeys are so damn' smart, I'll bet if I go to one of their places and make myself visible - but not *too* much of a threat! - they'll find me a range that isn't already claimed by somebody older, bigger and meaner than me." *That* ploy.
