Concidering the deer tracks next to it in the other photo I would assume it to be in the 80-100 pound range.

A cougar is the last thing I want pics of on my cams  :chuckle:

But if that's what you want... good luck!

Yep by the time you get around to cougar season he should have only eaten approx 15-20 deer in your area, that is a good tradeoff. Circle of life.

:chuckle:

Of course by the time hunting season rolls around the cougar that has eaten most of the deer will have gotten eaten by a pack of wolves , so now where does the circle of life end? Thats right , its a circle , it doesnt end.  :chuckle:
