Seems often you come across a story or parts of one.
Since many looking at this thread may be interested in cats, and not to steal the thread, has anyone seen or heard of the cat that was shot over an elk kill this winter up near Naneum section? Said to have been three cats on the kill and the young man in the pic took the biggest one. the email said 325 lbs, most likely a lot of weight from the gorging.
Anyway, details appreciated.

Thanks for the link and yes you do have to take anything on the internet with a grain (pound) of salt. I couldn't imagine a cat at that weight either.
Great to have the rest of the story. Thanks again

That photochopped pic of flyguide's cat is on the cork-board at Sportsman's Whorehouse in Kennewick, along with the fake-internet story. I thought about telling someone at the store what the real-deal was, but then though naaaaahhh... let the legend grow... :chuckle:
The funny thing is that the real story is waaaaaaayyyyy better than the fake one...

It was not 325 lbs. I know a guy whose best friends brother knows a guy that used to work with the sister of the hunters neighbor and said it was as big as a full grown grizzly bear. You can't tell b/c the guy in the picture is 7'2" and weighs 365 lbs himself

This is my first time on this board. I am the lucky hunter that shot the cougar in the pics. I just found out today that the pics were on this board from my taxidermist. It's all old news now but the cat up mill creek was hit by a car. No luck drawing a late cat tag this year but I'll still be on the mountain all winter looking for other critters. Good luck to all.

:hello: Welcome on board, nice cat for sure! hope to see some pics when you get it back from the taxidermist! are you getting a full mount :dunno:
