Nice, where about did you get the picture?

There are all over since they quit hunting them with dogs.

I need to get some cameras set out.

I am pretty sure I have had a cougar on every cam I have ever set out. They are everywhere.

I will second that there is not one of my 15+ cams out that there is not a cougar on. Its gotten pretty bad

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Back when I first started running cameras when I got a cougar or bear on it I was stoked and it was a highlight. Would flip through and they would be saved. Now, I barely slow down when I see a cat or a bear on my camera as they are pretty much on every soak I run.

Have seen 2 in person this year, one in June and one this week when grouse hunting. Could be coincidence but they do seem to be getting thicker.
