Shoot it, bury it, and shut up.
Cougar was probably a white, racist.
EEEP!
Oh, I bet he's endangered all right.
That's close to home.
We must have permission to protect our lives and our property. If we do not have permission we must wait for the government to give it to us.
Hey!
that must be one BIG cougar. Deer is their usual prey. Even if it weighed close to two hundred pounds...
We live in exurban NJ and some people in town claim they saw a cougar this spring.

This is exactly the same attitude that prevailed in (I believe) Colorado. Cougars are SACRED !
After a cougar attacked a high school student in broad daylight, partially consumed him, and was ready to attack a search party that discovered the remains,attitudes shifted a tiny bit.
When large predators become so habituated to humans that they will kill livestock and pets, they are a CLEAR DANGER to humans,and should be destroyed ASAP !
