i know the area around Cougar, WA holds some cougars!  :dunno:

Just couldn't pass that up. :chuckle:

all of western wa has them, hell i have them cross my land, and only have seen tracks, they did like last years goat kids pretty well.

mmmmmmmm which island has cougars of the feline type?

fidalgo had rumors of one stealing dogs in the past, dont know of any other island that would have them in WA State.

find an area with deer and elk frequent and put up a trail cam with some bait.

There's a wine bar down the street that seems to be at carrying capacity most of the time. ;)

that one looks like a kitten, not old enough for cougardom.

check this thread out, twin lakes area in the past has had its share of feline cougars. :tup:

forest service federal land, ok to hunt.  :tup: dont know how good the road is this time of year. driving and cougar hunting will yield most likly nothing, and if you did see one it would soon be gone as it would hear you comming.

get your boots on and snowshoes this time of year.  ;)

Camano is has cougars.  Seen 3 with my own eyes.  Lost lake area where I grew up, they have a sign that goes up to notify people when there is a sighting in the area.
