Perfectly legal to bait cougar as long as you are not using edible parts of game animals or game fish or roadkill wildlife. I'm pretty sure you cannot move roadkill deer.
Check out Rain Shadows game calls. Steve is a local guy from the Port Angles area that has recorded real cat sounds, get his CD you won't be disappointed. You will also get top notch cat hunting hunting tips like always give the big cats the up hill advantage, leave your twirly decoys at home, bury your e-call in some brush so the cat has to look for it. Good luck!!!

( WAC 246-203-121)"It does look like you could use roadkill for cougar bait, IF it is found dead on YOUR property or the road adjoining it. You can't just drive down the road and pick up a fresh dead deer from anywhere, unfortunately.IB, check your local schools, there might be someone (biology teacher?) there with a salvage permit like my wife has for her classroom. They would probably love to get the skull. You might also contact WDFW and ask for the person in charge of salvage permits. They would likely be able to get you in touch with someone that could use it.
