What is your guys experience on a cougar returning to its kill site. Did we completely spook it out of there with our human sent or will her return? We moved my trailer camera to directly over the kill site in hopes of getting some pictures of him if he returns. We will also be back in there in the next week to see if we can stumble upon him - cougar season is still open!
Pretty cool all around other than a cougar taking out one of my elk! Hopefully he doesn't hang out in that area and just pick them all off. I've honestly been quite surprised I haven't seen more sign of cougars in there considering all the elk that winter in there though.
This is probably the calf that died. (This video is from 1/24/12.) Too bad no cougar on the videos.
Video of the find:

That had crossed my mind myself. Tracks seemed really small to me especially considering they were partially melted out.

Just a side note I always get pics of myself in several locations on the trail camera (after final placement) so I can compare size of photographed animals to myself when I return or by simply measuring.

Coo pics. My next goal harvest a cougar. Have to set up an electronic caller. Try to find some sounds that mimic a dead calf. that probably would bring him right in.
Should be pretty easy....a "Dead Calf" makes no sounds at all!!! LOL
