Low density???

The only things with low density in this state is deer, and WDFW brain capacity.

LOW DENSITY!.........what in the heck is wrong with these guys! Cougars are showing up all over, 2 sightings around the town of Snohomish for crying out loud, sightings poping up all over the state(probably because prey animal numbers are dropping), seen more cats in the Methow over the last 5 years than I have seen in the previous 55, stumbled on to 20 or so cached kills in a particular area in the Methow this last hunting season, talked to a buddy that does a lot of hiking and horsebacking up around Stampede pass that said a lot of cats in that area also(more than he has ever seen in his 50+ years of wandering that turf), have friends around Darrington that say the same thing(seen more cats showing up over the last 10 years),have a cousin that lives over by Coulee City he has for over 40 years, he has seen 4 over the last 3 years, he had never seen one in the previous 36 and he spends a lot of time in the hills and coulees over there.....LOW DENSITY!, I,m really starting to think their is some sort of an agenda with predators in this state and I hate thinking that way because I don't buy in to conspiracys or even give them the time of day, but really, why are all these different predators being coddled and put on the pedestal that are elk and deer herds used to be on....... sorry for the rant but what the heck is going on with this dept.....LOW DENSITY

Low density?   Horse feathers.  The darn things are all around me, I live up Mount Pleasant road on the east side of Port Angeles.    Attacks on livestock:  Neighbors goats killed, horses clawed, sheep killed, a colt killed, it goes on forever.  They even have been seen within the city limits.  A lady shot one a few months back that was after her livestock.

They simply can’t help themselves but to twist the truth and lie can they?  Why did they even address the population of cougars in the notice?  They could have simply left that out but no, they have to tell all the sheep what they want them to believe.
So disgusted with those morons.

Up until a few years ago I would get a cougar on a couple of my trail cams every so often. Well this year pretty much every trail cam I have out has a cougar on it at some time. After having one chase my dog when out hiking last year I always pack heat with me now.

If you guys get a chance, listen to the meateater podcast with the houndsman from Idaho. He was working with WDFW on a collaring project and got attacked by a cat in NE corner. Pretty crazy stuff

Does anyone know if a more detailed report giving the exact location of the scene will be available at some point?  I know from personal experience there are cats all throughout that property, but would still like to know the specifics.

Was it Bart that got attacked?

Yep, first morning of first day of study.

[KFhunter]

uh oh, did Bart embellish a story?  I tried to listen to that podcast, wouldn't work, but if it's a fabrication I won't bother.  I don't need to listen to a whopper.
