My sister is darting and collaring cougars around our area right now as apart of her training to be a vet. They are using hounds to tree the cougars and she is shooting them with the darts and letting them fall. No worries there is feet of snow on the ground so none of the cougs are hurt from the fall. Its a daughter like father thing since my dad was a tracker and a few years ago found some time in the spotlight for tracking a cougar for 10 days that had been eating livestock and guard dogs for months before they called him into track and drop the boy. Elaine will love this to show that girls can do just as good or even better than any boy.  |

That's awesome! When I first read the subject "dropped a cougar" I was expecting you to tell a story about you guys being out on the town, and you got hit on by a "cougar" at a bar and your sister knocked her out.  |

HAHA I so didn't even think about those "Urban Cougars"  That would have been funny considering she is a varsity wrestler. |

You know, Mat'le I almost didn't even look at this post, because I thought your sister killed a cougar and I don't want to read about that!  After I read it I see that the cougar wasn't hurt... (Being the "Leo" that I am, I am an avid cat lover...) |

So I talked with my sister Jessica and she is willing to take some people out and have them help. Stanton is going to come on out the next time, so anyone looking to see something they only see on TV please get ahold of me and let me know. I promise for bigger cats the next time around.

There is a girl not too far from here who actually has a pet cougar, she got her Senior Portrait taken with it. Could u imagine the look in the face of the photographers when she showed up. She was good friends with a friend of mine in college.
