show pictures. skin out the neck on those calves. lions usually cover what they don't eat like bobcats do.

The next time he loses a calf need to check the neck, to see if there is a broken neck and look for any open wounds from the back of neck. That is where to check if you think it is a cat.
I don't believe I ever seen a cat kill without that glaring indication.

You put a small magnet on the collar to turn it off. It’s that simple I’ve been around a lot of cats the past 20 years and never seen anything up a tree

With pictures, shooting a livestock killer would not get anyone a ticket.

Probably an unwanted gift from SD ours seem to go to other places. They might not even be protected I’d do some research before I got to far ahead of myself.

Mtn Lions protected in Mo - linkIn Missouri, mountain lions are protected under the state's Wildlife Code. The rules allow someone to kill a mountain lion only if they are “attacking or killing livestock or domestic animals, or if they are threatening human safety.” The state also requires documenting such cases by contacting a conservation agent and surrendering an intact carcass and pelt within 24 hours.

Contact the Conservation Enforcement Agent for that county, and get a depradation permit, they will instruct you on what to do with the carcass, I seriously doubt you will be allowed to dispose of it on your own or keep it.

"Threatening human safety." seems pretty broad and open to interpretation to me. Is it still yet breathing? Y'all know what to do.

It's the same in Oklahoma. Document the missing calves with the wildlife department and clean them up when you see one. Or hire some dog guys to run that thing into a tree and then have the wildlife department come get him
