Kahuna, if you are going to make a post like that you should show the pic. A 300 lb black bear is a lot less likely than most think let alone a cougar.

Probably that one from North Bend area from a few years back that's been circulating around the internet with claims of being killed in several different states.

Ya Right!

I don't know... you can really bulk up if you are feasting on Seattle hikers...

Is this the one you are referring to? If so, it's been on here before (It was taken a few years ago). Although it is one BIG cat, it certainly does not weigh 300 lbs.

I know there's a thread here about it and the story behind it. (This is the same one that Bobcat is referring to)

That one was on the boone and crockett website.  was not 300 lbs though.

If I could download I would, not that tech savvy, sorry,. Saw the pictures of the one from northbend, looks like a different cat. I myself call B.S. also, just was wondering if anyone else got the text pic or not. I kileed some nice cats and have hunted with brother with hounds quite a few times never heard of or seen anything close to this size of cat.

Here is the info from B.C. website on the cat agchawk posted:

The truth is that it was taken in King County, Washington in December 2002 by Roy Hisler with one shot from a .30-06. His partner, Jim Hackewitz, used a varmint call to bring in the big cat � taken within 6 miles of Bellevue, Washington (a major suburb of Seattle). The cougar was accepted into the 25th Big Game Awards at 15-7/16.
