The real kind, not the vehicular kind, slunk across the road in front of me last night, just a few yards in front of my house and coming out of my field (no cows there; they are lower down). Large bugger. Crossed over into neighbor's field across the street.
Spouse and neighbor have seen it too in the past month, each time in the same general area. Might explain the chewed-up deer I found down by the spring a few weeks ago, and some dead chickens the neighbor has had. Will they pounce from a tree like a cougar? (And yes, I do ask this with trepidation, not wanting a reprise of the Great Cougar Debate of 2016 :lol:
I have calves due in a few weeks. If the bugger hasn't moved on by then should I be worried? S/he seems to want to stick around; if s/he limits him/herself to deer, h3ll, I'll put out a water bowl!
