Police Set Up A Camera In Kansas To Find A Mountain Lion And WTF Is Happening
BuzzFeed News Reporter ^ | 11/29/16 | Jason Wells

Posted on 11/30/2016 5:48:11 PM PST by Indy Pendance

Hello. This is a photo of a skunk in Gardner, Kansas, captured on a remote camera set up to investigate reports of a mountain lion in the area.

But after deploying two trail cameras, Gardner police said they found no mountain lion, just the typical forest dwellers.

Like this coyote.

And this person using a walker while carrying some sort of sharp object.

And this guy in a gas mask holding a plastic bag.

Wait. No.

NO.

WTF.

For their part, Gardner police said in a Facebook post that they thought it was pretty damn funny.

We would like to sincerely thank the persons responsible as it made our day when we pulled up what we expected to be hundreds of pictures of coyotes, foxes and raccoons. Thank you to the citizens who noticed the cameras. Your effort and sense of humor are greatly appreciated.

Well they sure didn’t find much funny when I was kid growing up in Gardner.

"The third photo’s “some sort of sharp object” is a recurve bow with a nocked arrow - and the bowstring improperly strung."

Good eye!

Obviously a member of the Old Folks home clandestine deer jacklighting team. (grandma division).

There’s no need to hide the camera from the local wildlife.

Gardner, KS, is just south of the Kansas City metropolitan area.

Mountain lions have been reported in Lawrence, KS, about a 45 minute drive from Gardner. And after numerous reports in the Kansas City area of a mountain lion (each of which was refuted by the MO Dept of Conservation,) a young mountain lion was hit by a car and killed as it chased a deer across a highway.

While I agree with that there’s also this-very lucky that no one took them.
Have a deer hunting buddy that has had one cam and one climbing stand already stolen this year.

Uh, no. It's a bow. You may be right that it's an old lady (at that age, what difference does it make? I mean it could be Hillary, right?)

Haven't figured out what the little bag is for. Maybe he/she is hunting squirrels at night..
