Buckblaster said this:, "I work in the woods here in NE WA and have easily seen over a dozen cougars in the last 15 years. When it snows, you definitely can tell how many are around. I've seen tracks in alot of the rural areas just outside of Colville. I'm not surprised to see tracks anywhere these days. I've come close to lowering the hammer on a few over the years while deer hunting, but when I waited for them to stop so I could get a shot, they never did."
I have seen 9 over the years and have killed two. The second one I killed was on the move at 400 yards. I let out a sound somewhat like a cat yowling and it stopped the cat, enabling me to take the shot. I did the same, though with a bit different sound, on this years spring bear. I suggest giving it a try on predators. It has worked for me. Brian.
