Cougar hit by a car along Lake Crescent this morning. I have never heard of a cougar getting hit by a car???

Wolves don't get hit either! Maybe more of both than we are being told. Or wdfw really is clueless.

I took my cougar pelt with everything attached to get sealed in olymia and they couldt figure out if it was male or female. So im voting for both.

I was one on the way up Tiger Mountain last year and a nice Bobby in Montana this year.

I saw a dead cougar in late April just off of Miles-Creston Road at the top of the hill north of Hawk Creek (Lincoln County).  I assumed it was hit by a car, but it was kind of decomposing so it was hard to tell if someone shot it and dumped it or if it was roadkill.

Saw a dead cougar up past Cougar, WA a few years back.  Then saw another hit just east of Hamilton.  I just think they last two long along the side of the road.  They get loaded up into a rig pretty quickly.

Years ago in Redmond, where Redmond Ridge apt. Complex from hell is now. I witnessed a guy on a Harley Davidson nail a cougar going about 70. Neither fared well , cat was obviously dead and the biker was in seriously bad shape. Will never forget that

I feel short-changed.

In Maine, one of the factors they use to determine the population of moose is the number of road kills they have in a given area (at least they used to use that info). I would surmise that if there are an increasing number of cougar road kills, that might lead us to make a certain assumption about their population growth.

I've seen and heard of numerous cats hit along the roads in NE WA, never hit one myself yet.
