Also forgot. A positive thing the board past for trappers was a trapping season for Mt. Lion. Not a cougar season. One of ATA elders told me. A cougar is a 49 year old lady looking for 23 old young man. laugh

About 5-6 years ago I saw a picture of a Mt. Lion taken by a fisherman out the road in Juneau. I personally never saw one. I also was told by a guy who spent the last 30 years or so living up the Taku, just downstream from the Canadian border, (he passed away 2 years ago), that he had seen them up there several times over the years.


Just doing what I want now.

All of Seak will have a season for hunting and trapping Mt. Lions.

Nice! Hopefully a few of us will bag Mt. Lions. I have zero interest in a cougar, at my age.

Using his age ratio for cougar to its prey, that’s not very appealing…..

Can you use dogs for them up there with those new rules?

AV, are you saying he should change his spots?
