The local moonshiners story is that one got shot by some of the locals, DNR pulled in and said you got something in that shed that belongs to us, we’ve got a tag in it’s ear, give it to us and we won’t press charges AND YOU NEVER SAW IT.
Phone pictures says otherwise.....
Just sayin’..... you know how those moonshiner stories go....
Mountain lion found in Kentucky apparently from South Dakota
'FRANKFORT, Ky. —Kentucky Fish and Wildlife officials say they have investigated and can't say for sure how a mountain lion turned up on a central Kentucky farm last December.
A conservation officer responded to a complaint on Dec. 15 in Bourbon County and found the animal treed by a homeowner's dog in a populated area outside of Paris. The officer shot and killed the animal due to public safety concerns.
The lion was determined to be a 5-year-old male, weighing 125 pounds and in good condition. DNA analyses link the lion's genetic origin to a population in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
The agency says there's no evidence the mountain lion made its way to Kentucky on its own and is believed to have been a released or escaped captive lion.'
