Yup, I heard the story of one between Baxter and Angus about 8-9 years ago, owner saw the cat swipe the rear of the horses cheek and left some pretty bad claw marks. Later seen on the Base several times by different people that know their wildlife. Not one of these "it's a bear when it turns out to be a dirty xxl coon".Quote:

The week after it was spotted in a school yard in Bracebridge. Not only did I see it but 3 others in our group saw it and we reported it to the MNR and they went looking for it and it made the Barrie news the week after we saw it.
Found someone on a hunting app I use say someone from Alabama got this on their camera lol...the legend continues Attachment 40412
With snow in the background,the trees and the overall "feeling"it is more north then Alabama,i would guess.............Quote:

I seen it the same year as he did just just the opposite way a few kms . The deer population has not been the same since on this particular peice of land . Was very common to see a dozen deer were I spotted the big cat to far for a clean camara phone picture.
I am believer as I have seen it in the wild.
I didnt call the ministry but I did try and contact the property owner to go on the land and look for the tracks. We had a heavy rain later so I didn't bother looking into it as the tracks would of been erased by the big rain.
Cougars are in Ontario. No doubt about it.

Considering that northern Alabama only receives annually on average 1 inch of snow I can safely assume that it is not Alabama lol.Quote:

Show me juvenile cougars on trail camera and I'll believe in a population. This from someone who has seen a cougar in the bush North of Bobcaygeon. I believe it was a cougar, I just don't believe it's native to the area.
