    I dont have any doubts there are Cougars in Ontario, But until I see a dead one or one in person I'm not believing any trail cam pics lol

    I know a guy that swears he was shooting at one about 20 years ago as it was chasing his pony. Hes a really good shot and good hunter so I'm not sure if he was dreaming or what lol

    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".

    Where we deer hunt in the Gravenhurst area about 8 years ago we were doing a deer drive and the blockers stated shooting as we got closer so usually we doggers get to a high point to look for deer running back in our direction and I see this brownish aniaml running in my direction so I put up the gun and look thru scope only to see a big body small head and long tail and realized it was a cougar streaking by me. 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.

    I have seen a wild cougar in Ontario.

    Have heard a few stories over the years including one of my bosses that said he swore saw a puma just down the rd from me . He is a snow bird and says that he sees them all time in Florida.

    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.

    The mystery continues.

    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.
