The DNR lies! They do it thoughtout the country. After many photos submitted to local news stations, the DNR in MN has finally admitted there are occasionally cougars that wander into MN. I’d be willing to bet there are cougars/mountain lions/pumas/panthers or whatever you want to call them in 49 states. That doesn’t mean there are breeding populations which is generally how they’re classified to be listed by a lot of States. I think some of y’all just hate DNR, lol. GA doesn’t have a breeding population of cougars, but we have some that wander through every year. And yes, it’s illegal to shoot one if you see it. But, I have told everyone that tells me they see black ones that if they shoot it, I’ll clean and skin it on my county courthouse steps with news cameras watching.

It's sometimes hard to have a positive attitude with our DNR when they deny or make false allegations about certain issues. Such as the estimated wolf population in MN.

Killing a Griz without a warranted circumstantial reason or legal authorization is a Fed Crime.
I didn't give an opinion either way. I just said it was a Fed crime. Nothing more.

For years in MN, the DNR denied the existence of cougars in MN. So, if that was the case, you should be able to legally shoot one since they don't exist here at that time.  Same as Michigan wasn't against the law to shoot one till 1984 when a cougar that didn't exist was shot Now even if they don't exist its illegal to shoot one

A hunter misidentified a young grizzly while hunting over bait near me and shot it. This is a shoutout to our Fish and Game. The hunter had filmed the bear twice and sent the film into Fish and Game asking if it was a grizzly and they said no. They didn't ticket the hunter as they had also misidentified the bear. I hear so many horror stories about C.O.s that I wanted to say I believe here in Idaho we have some great ones. A little common sense for once.

Hard to imagine how many wolves have died in Minnesota in the last few years. I've (heard) of a few. 
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

Not questioning racism, but the original statement <scratch head> Wisconsin like Minnesota, NO cougars here til enough creditable evidence was public. My son met our local warden and DNR biologist w/radio tracking gear out in the forest one morning years ago. They sorta kinda hinted they were following a cougar. It's always been funny to me that the DNR would deny their existence when two large adjacent school districts have the cougar and panther as mascots dating back forever??
