Mountain Lion sighting

[Hodgie]

Funny you mention that.

I was charged by a cape buffalo up here in Perry County. Then I realized it was a windblown shopping cart.

I hope you put it down and called the PGC so they can initiate the cover up.

Saw a Cougar on a Pennsylvania parking lot. Beautiful. People were admiring it. I think it was a 1977 model.

I saw the El Chupacabra which translates into "The The Chupacabra", or "Hillary Clinton".

It must have been a Wegmans or Walmart shopping cart.. they are pretty thick and can be confused with either cape buffalo or bears....

Hey Chuck-
I think your dog was right trying to tell you something's wrong.
He was trying to tell you to slow down on the Irish Mist, just sayin'.
Mountain lion indeed.

You may think I am crazy and the other 6 people who have witnessed one of the two brown cats in our area. I can tell you; I wish I never saw that cat. It was the size of an African Lion and the same color except the tail was thick and about 3' long. When I was working construction, I left for work at 4:00 A.M. to go to Northwest Lehigh, Jim Thorp, Blue Mountain or Northern Lehigh County to work on Federal and State Work. I have seen big cats at least 7" long from nose to tail 2 times and one at night coming back from my lodge meeting I saw a smaller one about the size of a German Shepherd stalking a herd of deer. I have pictures of prints. They were poor but you could see the claw prints and the width was 4" wide. I thought It was a dog print till I took pictures and compared them to the Mountain Lion prints. Then I got the sound track that was verified by a wild life expert as being a Mountain Lion female calling it's mate. My Vet has seen scat along the outer perimeter of the Huntingdon Valley Country Club near the Reserve. I was terrified when that cat jumped in front of my SUV. It was scary and it is only a 1/4 mile from my home. We have coyotes here and mountain lions love to eat them I am told. I put out a trail cam and it will not be long till I get a good photo. The problem with mountain lions is they have a 70 mile range. We have a pathway along the railroad and the parallel turnpike for the cats and deer to safely pass without being detected. This male cat scares me. I bought a 45 and when I let the dog out at night i put it near the door just in case.

So your so scared of the same cats you said last week were impossible to spot or track? How would you even know it's close if you can't see it or sign like other normal people do in places where they are native to and abundant.

How the Hell do you even know its they are their in the 1st place?

I think you have a better chance of crossing paths with these cats and when you do your probably going to need something bigger then a .45 by the back door.

Is there really a mountain lion, or are you just lyin' a mountain?

Must have been a juvenile, adult mountain lions are twice the size of African lions.
Everyone knows that.

A clue. People who are prevaricating often make Freudian slips. A seven inch feline is a small kitten.

That lodge mentioned...is it centered around purveyance of illusions?

Especially when they are piled high with groceries! Aldi also has huge shopping carts.
