I don’t know if the Eastern Mountain Lion is the same as the Florida panther

My understanding is that the Florida Panther has been removed from all endangered/threatened lists worldwide since DNA testing determined it to be identical to the western mountain lion/puma/cougar.

My assumption is that the Eastern Mountain Lion is also identical to the western mountain lion/puma/cougar. Rather than admitting that the Eastern Mountain Lion never existed as a separate distinct species, the neo-pagans declare it extinct.

I think you’re onto something.
